Why this 20×26" size?
When 17×24" starts to strain, 20×26" adds the space you need without jumping straight to cartons. It handles duvet covers, throws, towel bundles and mid-to-large retail boxes with clean presentation and quick packing.
Real use examples
- Textiles & home: bedding sets, pillows, throws, towel bundles, large cushion covers.
- Apparel: winter coats, multi-item clothing stacks, knitwear bundles.
- Boxed goods: bigger gift sets and retail boxes with inner wrap.
Fit & packing guidance
- Best fit: bedding/textiles, stacked apparel, larger boxed kits.
- Too tight? Step up to 24×36" or 28×30".
- Too roomy? Step down to 17×24" for a neater seal and lower postage.
- Corner care: pad sharp inner-box edges to reduce punctures.
- Press out air: flatten before sealing so labels sit flat and sacks/totes stack cleanly.
Key benefits
- Self-seal, tamper-evident closure for rapid packing.
- 60-micron co-extruded film helps resist tears, splits and scuffs.
- Moisture-proof / water-resistant outer for wet routes.
- Opaque grey for privacy and a clean, uniform look.
- Recyclable LDPE — remove the glue strip before recycling.

Eco & Materials
Material: 100% recycled LDPE (resin code 4), co-extruded for strength and opacity. Recyclable in many UK schemes — please remove the adhesive strip first. Not biodegradable or compostable.
Strength & Protection
60-micron co-extruded film is puncture- and tear-resistant and moisture-proof. The self-seal, tamper-evident adhesive forms a permanent bond once pressed.
Storage & Performance
Store at 13–21 °C and out of direct heat/sunlight. Let cold stock acclimatise before use to maintain adhesive performance.
Lightweight = Lower Postage
Recycled LDPE mailers are exceptionally lightweight, helping you keep parcels in lower weight bands versus boxes.
