National Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day
Tody, January 30th 2023, is National Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day. If bubble wrap makes you think about the exquisite joy of popping noises - or perhaps just moving to a new apartment - well then you're already a fan. How did this day start? Well, a radio station once inadvertently unwrapped microphones live on air and the listners loved it! The rest was history.
History of Bubble Wrap
In 1957, two engineers, Marc Chavannes and Alfred Fielding, create the first Bubble Wrap, first trying to sell it as wallpaper and later marketing it as greenhouse insulation.
In 1960, Bubble Wrap goes corporate. The inventors establish the Sealed Air corporation.
In 1961, Bubble Wrap is finally used for shipping. IBM, sensing the opportunity, use the product to protect the IBM 1401 computer during shipment.
2015 was the end of popping as we know it. Sealed Air Corp. invent iBubble Wrap - bubble wrap that comes uninflated to keep shipping costs down and doesn't pop.
Reasons to Love Bubble Wrap
1) Bubble Wrap helps with stress: a survey by Sealed Air Corporation supposedly found that one minute spent popping Bubble Wrap relieves as much stress as a 33 minute massage.
2). Bubble Wrap almost became an official toy: hate to burst your bubble, but bubble wrap lost in the 2016 National Toy Hall Of Fame finals.
3). Theres an app for wrap: you can relieve stress by popping virtual bubble wrap 24/7, or you can play one of three games. You can't lose, it's free!
