AirGuard HDPE: Cushioning with Care, Filling with Air
Frequently Asked Questions: HDPE Air Pillow & Void Fill Solutions
HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) cushion film is a high-strength, lightweight plastic used to create air pillows and bubble cushions. It is the preferred void filler for Australian e-commerce businesses because it provides superior shock absorption without adding weight to your parcels, helping you keep shipping costs down while preventing product movement during transit.
Our HDPE cushion films are designed with a universal core size and high-quality Easy-Tear perforation, making them compatible with most standard air pillow machines available in Australia. Whether you are using a desktop unit for a small shop or a high-speed industrial system, our film ensures a smooth, jam-free inflation process. In addition, if you buy large volume films (60rolls / month or over) we support you by providing the machine for free. Regarding this deal, please reach out to us on mates@packagemate.com.au
Air pillows are significantly more space-efficient than traditional pre-inflated bubble wrap. Since the film arrives on a compact roll and is inflated on-demand, it saves up to 90% of warehouse storage space. Additionally, air pillows are often a more cost-effective void fill solution for filling large empty spaces in shipping boxes compared to heavy paper or loose-fill peanuts.
Yes. Sustainability is a priority for Australian consumers. Our HDPE film is a Category 2 plastic, which is 100% recyclable. We encourage businesses to advise their customers to recycle these through REDcycle bins or local soft plastic recycling drop-off points found at major supermarkets across Australia, ensuring a circular economy for your packaging.
Our HDPE film is engineered with high puncture resistance and strong seal integrity. While air pillows are ideal for light-to-medium weight void filling, they are also durable enough to act as a protective buffer for heavier items. For extremely sharp edges, we recommend combining the film with our corrugated wrap or thicker HDPE variants.
