Abstract: Mailpieces configured to mitigate flexure of frangible articles during handling by postal processing equipment. The mailpieces include spacers that intervene between the stress-sensitive article held by the mailer and a convex surface of a roller, drum, spindle, or other mechanical device used in the postal processing equipment for transporting the mailpieces.

Abstract: Protective mailer capable of being processed by postal processing equipment without causing damage to the article held by the mailer. The pocket holding the article inside the mailer is offset relative to one edge, when folded, by a distance sufficient to prevent damage when the mailer is oriented and processed. The mailer may include a resizing flap that, when unfolded and deployed, changes the dimensions of the mailer so that the mailer is processed by the postal processing equipment as a non-letter or flat mailpiece.
Abstract: A tri-fold protective mailer for a stress-sensitive article. The protective mailer comprises a three-section, substantially-rectangular panel having a pocket on one outermost section for securing the stress-sensitive article. When the mailer is folded, the article is captured between the overlapping sections of the panel such that the stress-sensitive article is inaccessible from the exterior of the mailer. The pocket is positioned and configured such that the mailer can be handled by automated handling equipment without a significant risk of damage to the stress-sensitive article.
