Wrapping parcels with wrapping paper - how it works

Packing parcels with wrapping paper is generally permitted. However, you should ensure that the packaging meets the necessary safety standards, especially for sensitive or fragile contents.

Our wrapping paper is made from recycled materials and is biodegradable. Compared to plastic packaging, wrapping paper is definitely much more environmentally friendly, but wrapping paper also performs very well compared to other cardboard packaging because it is very flexible and can be used sparingly.

To adequately protect your parcel with packing paper, wrap it carefully, use several layers for fragile items if necessary and seal the packing paper securely with adhesive tape. If necessary, supplement the protection by adding cushioning material.

For rectangular items: Fold the packing paper around the item and secure the edges with adhesive tape. For round or irregularly shaped items, wrap the paper around the item and secure it. Delicate items should first be wrapped in a protective layer and then wrapped in packing paper. Make sure that all edges and corners are well covered. Small items or sets can be grouped together and individually wrapped in wrapping paper before packing.

In most cases, wrapping paper can be reused. As long as it is not badly damaged or soiled, you can reuse it for packing other items. However, please note that for effective reuse, the wrapping paper should not be heavily creased or torn to ensure adequate protection.

You can use wrapping paper for international parcels. However, please observe the customs regulations of the destination country and choose sturdy wrapping paper to ensure safe transport.

Packing parcels with wrapping paper takes practice. If you are in a hurry or have a large number of identical products to pack, prefabricated cardboard packaging is easier to fill. In addition, moist or moisture-sensitive goods should be transported in plastic packaging or coated cardboard.
