Woven Bags Must Be The First Choice For Bulk Packaging. Know Why?

How much time would you take if you are asked to store a hundred packs of 500 Gms spices? Nearly one hour or maybe more than that! Lifting the packs and stacking them, then dealing with the slippy surface of packaging not able to hold, all will take lots of time and patience. And how about all these hundred packs packed in one bag? Is it not an easy way to store things?

The use of woven bags for bulk packaging is prevalent across industries. In addition to being used as packaging materials for packing the material of diverse textures, they are also used for bulk storage of small units of the same material. And, the significant role in this efficacy of PP bags is played by PP woven fabric, from which these bags derive. 

Why has it become the top pick of industries for bulk packaging? The answer to this question lies in PP woven fabrics!

The fabric has many features, which has helped it beating many of its competitors and ruling the packaging industry. Let’s get a quick look at the exceptional characteristics of PP woven fabric. 

It Hold Weight - Polypropylene is a thermoplastic with exceptional strength. After being processed into woven fabric through the weaving method, the PP strength doubles, which piques its carrying capacity as well. Therefore, woven bags are predominantly used for storing materials like grains, cement, fertilizers, bulk material, etc., in bulk.

Used For Protection Of Packaging - Packaging provides details of a package, such as the product name, producer or manufacturer, date of packaging, expiry date, manufacturing unit location. Printing on different surfaces has distinct life. Printing on plastic has a lasting life only when it is not exposed to moisture or water. In the presence of the same, its colour fades out or getaway. Paper packaging can’t sustain moisture. Most small packaging you see in retail stores either have plastic or paper packaging. To protect these packagings from different environmental conditions, they are transported from manufacturing units to retail stores or warehouses in PP woven sacks or bags. 

The woven fabric protects these packaging from different weather conditions because of being moisture, dust, chemical resistant. A laminated PP woven bag possesses a strong resistance against moisture. This feature of laminated PP fabric protects small packaging from damage. 

Used For Bulk Storage - It is neither safe nor convenient to store small packaging as a single unit in a warehouse. Therefore, it is stored in woven sacks in bulk to avert the following threats, the threat to pest infestation, mishandling, need of large. When several small units are stored in a single large woven bag, managing stock becomes easier. 

Often, one woven sack hundred to five hundred pieces of smaller units are stored in one woven bag or sack. E.g. Hundred woven bag when filled with 100 packs each of 500 gm nuts bags, would keep 1 Lakh packs of 500 gm nuts bags in totality. It is simple to calculate. 

In addition to that, PP woven bags are sturdy bags, their ability to hold weight is higher than any other packaging material. However, the bag strength depends on the specifications of PP woven fabric, and it is customized according to the requirements. 

The same size of woven bag made from thick strands of polypropylene via weaving process has a higher weight efficiency than the bag made from thin strands.

Protection From Chemical Spray - Different packaging materials have different levels of resistance to chemicals. In warehouses, where bulk goods storage takes place, require chemical spraying to avert pest or insect infestation. Packaging material reactive to the chemical is not suitable to store at such place. 

The alternate way is to pack that packaging in PP woven sack or wrap. PP fabric being chemically inert does not react with chemical and keep the product safe.
