What Are Polypropylene Bags

Polymer fibers are woven together to create a strong bond in the thermoplastic. It is then put under heat to seal everything together. These bags are then used for a variety of things, such as:

  • Dog Food

These bags have a variety of uses in the business world. You may not even realize how common they are. Grocery stores and different companies use these types of bags daily. The bags are strong, durable, and resistant to rips, tears, and punctures. They are designed with an easy pull tab to help open them. The bulk bag leakproof design helps protect not only your contents from spilling but the outside elements coming in contact with your product. If you could tear the bag open easily, then it wouldn’t be as strong as needed. 

Laminated Polypropylene Bags

Many people ask us, “Is polypropylene water resistant?” Although there are many different types of polypropylene bags available, when it comes to water-resistant, laminated woven polypropylene bags are the way to go. When these bags are finished with laminated film, they become water-resistant, which helps protect their contents from moisture. It would be a bad day for the business if your products arrived at their destination soiled or ruined due to water getting in. 

Not all bags are protected with waterproof packaging, you will need to be sure to look for those that have a laminated finish to be sure they are waterproof. Choosing these moisture-proof plastic bags may require a bit more cost upfront, but it will save you in the long run. You can purchase these bags in a variety of sizes, such as:

  • 14 x 21
  • 17 x 27
  • 17 x 30 
  • and higher…

Benefits Waterproof Bags

It wouldn’t benefit your business at all if your products are ruined or soiled in transit due to moisture. You never know what conditions the packages are going to go through in the shipping process. This is why a bulk bag leakproof design is so important. Choosing to use laminated PP bags is ideal for many packages. These packages can get caught outside on a tarmac in the rain or displayed at retail stores where they are subject to the elements. 

Providing extra protection for the products you are putting in these bags will help you in the long run.
