Have you observed lately that several e-commerce mailers or courier bags have a tamper-proof closure? This must not come as a surprise as there are multiple advantages to replacing usual e‑commerce bags with tamper-proof ones says Mr Gaurav Jalan. Let us look at some of the advantages of using tamper-proof courier bags and mailers.
Keep the packages and consumers safe
With the constant growth of e-commerce, more of what one consumes has been handled by several people throughout the supply chain. It is difficult to know who opened what and when. Unlike usual e-commerce mailer bags, tamper-proof poly mailers cannot be opened and resealed without leaving any evidence, as “void” or “opened”.
The advantage is two folds. It gives you a clear chain of custody. And it provides consumers peace of mind that the poly mailers or courier bags they receive have not been opened, accidentally or intentionally.
Safeguards your brand
Unknown to consumers, it is surprisingly simple to open a usual poly mailer or bag to steal its contents, replace the original item with a counterfeit, or have a taste of the food, medicine, or dietary supplements that it contains.
Sadly, negative news spreads like wildfire on media and social media these days. It only takes one viral post for your brand to find itself in a shamble. Tamper-proof poly mailers or couriers bags are such a minor investment to decrease the risk of contamination, fraud, and theft, while also safeguarding your brand against product liability issues.
Boosts your buyer’s experience
For a considerable time, retailers have depended on the in-store experience to make the brand memorable. But with e-commerce, your courier mailers or bags are what impacts your customers’ first impression. Sadly, when your consumers receive damaged products, packages, or deliveries with missing items, chances are you will never see them again. Various studies suggest that there is nothing like a poor customer experience to drive customers away.
Contrarily, when you use tamper-proof poly bags or mailers, it conveys to your customers that you care about them.
Decreases your costs
Even when consumers remain loyal to your brand despite the bad experience, it costs your business’ reputation quite a bit of money. More the claims, more customer service executives are required, not to mention covering the expenses of replacing the missing products and their shipping.
What is the actual cost of customer returns compared to the expense of securing your e-commerce deliveries using tamper-proof mailers?
Differentiate your brand
In multiple ways, tamper-proof packaging lets you prevent issues and mitigate risks. But it is also a top way to make your brand stand out from the rest.
The pandemic has fundamentally altered the way consumers shop. They expect retailers to address their health and safety concerns both in-store and while they order online. It is pretty much a matter of perception rather than anything else. Provided the option between a product delivered in a normal courier bag or one delivered using a tamper-proof poly mailer, consumers will certainly prefer the one that promises their safety.
The thought then arises: Do you wish to be a market leader or a follower? Tamper-proof mailers and courier bags are greatly being used for e-commerce deliveries of all sorts of products.
