Custom poly mailers for clothing brands

Understanding Poly Mailer Sizing Fundamentals

At FDXPACK, we've specialized in clothing packaging for 16 years, serving global brands across North America, Europe and Asia. Choosing the right poly mailer size impacts both shipping costs and customer experience.

Key Considerations:

  • Clothing Type: T-shirts vs. jackets require different sizing
  • Shipping Costs: Oversized bags increase dimensional weight fees
  • Brand Presentation: Tight packaging prevents unsightly wrinkles
  • Protection: Proper sizing reduces movement during transit
