In an era where 26% of shipped items sustain damage during transit (2024 Logistics Industry Report), businesses are reevaluating traditional packaging methods. Mailing tubes have emerged as the superior choice for shipping elongated, fragile, or high-value items. Nanjing Hengtai Packaging Technology Co., Ltd. (HFPacks) leads this revolution with engineered solutions combining material science innovations with smart logistics integration. This analysis explores 7 critical advantages of mailing tubes over envelopes through technical comparisons, industry applications, and emerging trends.
