1. As a softening of the shovel handle

Wrapping the handle of the shovel in foil can prevent the formation of painful calluses, which will certainly contribute to the comfort of activities performed.

2. As protection for clothes, shoes and handbags

Bubble wrap can also serve as excellent protection for our clothes and accessories. Filling the inside of your shoes with it will give them the right shape and prevent deformation. In the same way, foil can serve as protection for bags stored in the closet.

4. As an aid in cleaning the floor

Bubble wrap is also used in cleaning. Wrapping a flat mop in foil before putting a cloth on it will make the mop stick better to the floor and collect dirt more effectively, especially in hard-to-reach corners.
