What Is A Self-Opening Square Bag and How Can I Use It In My Business?

Western Packaging has a plethora of options when it comes to bags and ways to ship your goods across town or across the world. One popular method of shipping goods is in a self- opening square bag. We are going to explain to you exactly what a self-opening square bag is and how you can use it in your business.

What Is A Self-Opening Square Bag

Self-opening square bags are gusseted and have a square bottom that is sealed shut with a very strong, high-quality adhesive. When a bag is gusseted it is reinforced in such a way that it can carry more weight and product. Usually, a square bag is good for palletizing and the square bottom allows it to stand alone without the support of another human, a machine, or other objects.

After they have been filled these bags are then sealed by sewing them shut, stapling, or taping them closed. Our paper self-opening square bags can even be labeled for easy identification or branding if necessary making your product stand out. Filled bags can then be stacked and organized in a uniform fashion because they are cubic in shape.

Wood Shavings, Wood Fibers, and More

These bags are perfect for lumber businesses or other companies that sell wood that is cut up into chips, shavings or fine fibers. Think in terms of wood chips used for grills and fire pits, these bags are reinforced and the paper is also environmentally friendly.

Pet supply companies and farms could benefit greatly from the use of the self-opening square bag. Many domesticated animals or house pets use would shavings in their cages or stalls, making this a great option to store their supplies.

Corn and Seeds

Corn and seeds are a common food item stored in self-opening square bags. They help to keep out moisture and are more than strong enough to handle the load. These bags are usually one to 3 ply and come in a variety of options depending on what you need.

Any business shipping their corn or seeds to grocery stores, tractor supplies, or pet stores should keep this type of bag in their list of excellent options. Keep in mind that when these bags are shipped they are able to be stored in multiple ways and functional patterns to save time and space. Not only does the bag handle the load but it loads well, this is priceless when you have to pay for what you ship and how you ship it.

Flour and Other Grains

Large companies that distribute flour to bakeries and restaurants will benefit from the self-opening square bag. Flour should always be stored in a cool and dry area which is why we recommend against poly bags and say go straight for the paper. This bag, in particular, helps to keep out air and moisture keeping your grains fresh and free of any pest or unwanted elements.

Whether you have an agricultural business, a pet supply company, or you specialize in grinding flour we have options for you. The self-opening square bag is reliable and will get the job done in these specific cases.  If you have more questions about whether these bags will hold up to the needs of your product we can help you out.
