How to Secure Products in a Flexi-Hex sleeve
So, you’ve got your product safely tucked into a Flexi-Hex sleeve – great start! But now you’re wondering: how do I keep it from sliding out? Don’t worry, we’ve got a few simple tricks to make sure everything stays snug and secure, whether you’re shipping a single item or a whole bundle.
1. Pick the Right Box (Tight is Right!)
This one’s easy: choose a box that fits your sleeved product just right. A snug-fitting box will naturally hold the sleeve in place, so there’s no room for it to move around. It’s the simplest way to keep things secure – no extra materials needed.

2. Wrap It Like a Pro
Alternatively, you could wrap the whole product and sleeve in a layer of tissue paper. This creates a tidy capsule that’s perfect for popping into a larger ecommerce boxes along with other items. It keeps everything together, offers a branding opportunity on the tissue box and make the unboxing feel opening a gift.

3. Pinch the Ends and Tape It Up
If your sleeve is a bit longer than your product (which we actually recommend), you can pinch in the ends and seal them with tape. This creates a neat little pod that keeps your item locked in. It’s quick and easy, especially handy for very delicate products.

4. Use an Insert for Gift Sets
If you’re packing a gift set or a bundle of specific SKUs, a custom insert is a great option. You can design it with slots that hold each end of the sleeve in place. It keeps everything looking sharp and professional and stops anything from shifting around in transit.
