As Pokémon TCG resale activity grows across the UK, Globe Packaging has published new guidance to help sellers reduce transit damage to trading cards.

Hayes, United Kingdom, October 22, 2026 /NewsNetwork/ -- Globe Packaging has released a practical guide addressing a gap in packaging knowledge among UK-based Pokémon card sellers, as interest in the hobby continues to climb across age groups. The resource outlines which envelope types best protect cards at different value tiers, drawing on Royal Mail handling conditions and the company’s own distribution experience.

Demand for Pokémon trading cards has grown steadily across the UK in recent years. According to YouGov, 35% of Britons say they have engaged with Pokémon in some way, with that figure rising to 71% among Gen Z and 57% among Millennials. The expansion of the secondhand card market has increased the volume of individual sellers shipping cards through standard postal networks, where packaging failures can result in damaged stock and lost resale value.
“For collectors, protection is paramount,” said Anish Aggarwal, managing director of Globe Packaging. “A single crease or knocked corner can noticeably reduce a card’s resale value. We’ve seen growing demand from individual sellers who want straightforward guidance on what actually works in transit.”
The guide identifies three envelope categories relevant to card sellers. Rigid cardboard envelopes, also known as board mailers, offer the highest level of flat protection and are recommended for graded or high-value cards, as their construction resists compression from postal sorting machinery. Padded bubble envelopes suit mid-range cards already sleeved and placed in toploaders, providing impact absorption during handling. Board-back envelopes, which combine a paper exterior with a cardboard backing, offer a lower-cost option for bulk or lower-value shipments where crease resistance is needed but rigid protection is not.
Globe Packaging says the guide responds directly to an increase in seller inquiries received through its customer support channels over the past 12 months.
