Custom Printed Poly Bag
Poly bags, also known in the industry as Polyethylene Bags, are used in various industrial, commercial, and home situations to preserve, store, or transport items. These poly bags are used regularly by the food, chemical, defense, waste management, retail, medical, construction, and a plethora of other industries. Poly bags are ideal for packaging goods or items that require a high level of protection. The main characteristics of poly bags include:
· Translucent or opaque
· Tear resistant
· Flexible
· Durable
· Low abrasion
· Soft and pliable
Advantages of Poly Bags
· Due to its many beneficial characteristics, polyethylene can be used in various applications. It is exceedingly ductile and has good impact strength while having low strength and hardness; it will stretch rather than break.
· Compared to other polymers, polyethylene is more durable and resistant to water; therefore, it lasts longer when exposed to the weather.
· Although polyethylene is a good electric insulator and offers resistance to electric trembling, it is susceptible to electrostatic charge. Anti-static substances will stop this.
· The transparency of polyethylene can range from almost clear to opaque, depending on its thickness. Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is useful for packing because of its clarity.
· It is more economical to recycle polyethylene as HDPE into other products than to manufacture a new product from fresh plastic.
· Low-density polyethylene has a melting point range of 221 to 239 °F (105 to 115 °C), while medium to high-density polyethylene has a melting point range of 248 to 356 °F (120 to 180 °C). It may be used in both high and low temperatures thanks to its excellent heat resistance qualities.
Common types of polyethylene bags include:
· High-density polyethylene (HDPE): Features densely packed and bonded molecules, making this type of polyethylene rigid, robust, and durable.
· Low-density polyethylene (LDPE): LDPE is generated from free radical polymerization, resulting in long and short branching of chains. This type of polyethylene is flexible, with low tensile strength and durability.
· Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE): LLDPE is very strong and durable. It boasts a higher tensile strength and durability than the LDPE.
Applications of Polyethylene Bags
· As a result of their sturdiness and longevity, zipper bags are among the most popular bags on the market. They come in various sizes suitable for freezer storage or basic shelf storage. Zipper bags stand out thanks to their tight zip closure, strong solid edges, and reusability. Zipper bags are used in factories and residences as a safe and reliable way to preserve stored products
· Poly anti-static bags reduce static electricity and guard against electrostatic discharge-related harm (ESD). They are made to hold and protect electronic parts that environmental ESDs could harm. Poly anti-static bags are available in a variety of shapes and sizes and come with fire retardant material, and are airtight for water protection.
· Products are shipped in mailers or shipping bags to avoid the weight of boxes. Mailer bags come in various styles, such as zip closures, pressure closures, and peel and seal closures. Shipped goods are shielded from weather and environmental toxins by the closure on mailer bags; also, some businesses utilize mailer bags to advertise their brand and display their logo.
