bubble wrap
This term refers specifically to the polyethylene cushioning used in logistics. While it is a physical product, it is typically treated as a mass noun in practical usage, describing the material rather than individual sheets.
In a psychological or colloquial context, the term is often used metaphorically to describe overprotecting someone or something from the hardships of reality, as in the phrase "wrapping someone in bubble wrap."
