Polypropylene bags have been on the market now for some time but what really makes them one of the better choices for your agricultural business? Western Packaging supplies a variety of bags for every purpose but we think there are things that make polypropylene bags special. As science and technology improve so does the way we do business and the supplies we use.
Polypropylene Bags Basics
With new information and research, scientists have created a product that is not only greener and cleaner than traditional PVC products but more cost-effective as well. Polypropylene is also known as poly weave due to its construction.
With this unique technology, you can store food for longer periods of time with less spoilage. Here are some more benefits to switching over to poly weave.
Budget-Friendly While Still Retaining Value
Compared to all other plastics, poly weave performs better in all areas. It will store your goods longer with less spoilage. Polypropylene bags also carry more weight than any other plastic bag which reduces breakage and waste.
All of these things add up to you saving money and adding value to your business and your customer’s life. When a customer receives your goods fresh and in good condition this sends the message that you’re a quality company to do business with.
Versatile and Biodegradable
Being green is a huge factor today when choosing businesses to do business with and everyone should do their part to reduce waste. Poly weave bags are proven to leave behind less waste than their other plastic counterparts. When a polypropylene bag is finally discarded it will break down quicker and leave fewer toxins in our food and water.
With that being said, who wouldn’t want to leave their name all over a bag of that quality when being shipped or stored. Not only are they biodegradable but you can print serial numbers, product names, and your brand right on these bags for all to see. This is important in an age where branding is a bigger deal than in prior years.
Polypropylene Bags are Durable and Pest Resistant
Time and time again Polypropylene bags have proven themselves to stand up to extreme temperatures. It has a melting point of 130 to 170 degrees celsius which makes it good for items that need to be in trucks or warehouses for long periods of time in the summer. Laminating and printing the bag will not affect the strength or durability of the bag as well.
The poly weave bag’s construction is made to stand strong against vermin and pest that like to infest food and grains. This, in turn, reduces food waste and saves your profits, which makes this bag perfect for transporting and storing food items.
Moisture Control
Polypropylene bags keep out moisture than other packaging materials like polyethylene or cellophane. Moisture control means you are less likely to have mold build up in your food and less rot. Odors are less likely to permeate other packages next to them as well, which depending on what you have in your packaging could be disastrous.
Resistant To Chemical and Electrical Stress
Because of poly weave’s high heat tolerance, it can also resist many chemical and electrical stressors. It stands up to physical manipulation, twisting, and other physical stress. While being a flexible packaging polypropylene bags can still remain strong and tough, making them the ideal choice for agricultural goods.
