Run a sheet of plastic (polythene) over a grid of holes.
Heat up the sheet and suck air down into the holes, forming the bubbles.
Apply a second sheet of hot plastic to the top, welding it down
Now to do this as a continuous production process, the holes can be in rollers and the whole process done very fast.

How To Make Bubble Wrap
2016-11-08 05:16:03 · answer #2 · answered by ? 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
I believe the last time I was in sams club here in Nebraska they sold bubble wrap. If the case is true try calling a sams club if you have one in New york. Also might want to try and call some of the furniture stores in the area. the usually get them in when they get fridgerators(spelling) and other household items. They sometimes give them away since they throw that stuff in the garbage after their shipment comes in. Might help. an idea try looking under google or yahoo and type in bubble wrap and see what ya get.. good luck bubble hunting.

They have lots of little bubble blowers who stand by the side of double layers of plastic sheeting as it passes them. One bubble blower blows like crazy between the layers, while the other zings a circle in the plastic to form the bubbles. He does this with a bubble zinger and the really professional bubble zingers are able to zing over a million bubbles every minute. They are paid danger money because of course they work with heated equipment and there is an increased danger of injury.
The bubble blowers are recognisable by their hearty, rosy complexion and huge chests.
The bubble zingers are recognisable by the blue sticking plasters on the tips of their fingers where the zinger has touched and burned their skin.
Hope this helps.

Add some bubbles to a whole lot of wrap.

they fill the plastic up slightly with air, seal it then punch the template over it to distribute the air to create the bubble sacks.
(im just guessing, but im sure it must be something along those lines)

they take plastic and close it at intravels. they get air in them by pressure and volume.

Instead of just air, why not use helium, which would save on postage? :-)
