There are numerous benefits to using woven polypropylene bags in South Africa. These bags are extremely durable and reusable, used for transporting and storing bulk dry goods. By weaving together strands of the thermoplastic polymer, it forms a strong and highly resilient fabric capable of resisting moisture, puncture, tearing, and more. Moreover, these super lightweight bags are relatively inexpensive and recyclable.
They can be used in a wide array of industries ranging from retail to agriculture, and everything in between. Polypropylene bags are also widely used for the transport of chemicals and construction materials.
Here are some benefits that your business can take advantage of through the use of woven polypropylene bags.
They Are Environmentally Friendly
Woven polypropylene bags are an environmentally friendly packaging choice for the transportation of bulk goods. Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer, which means that when it is melted, it can be remoulded and reused ‒ unlike non-thermoplastic polymers, which simply burn when heated.
This makes woven polypropylene bags an environmentally friendly option because, when they finally do reach the end of their useful life, they can be melted down and repurposed.
These bags are also environmentally friendly because they are reusable. While there are some bulk bags that are specifically designed for a single use, the vast majority of them can be reused many times over.
They Are Versatile
The fact that woven polypropylene bags are not rigid like boxes or crates makes them eminently useful in a wide range of applications. They can be used for packing, storage, and transportation. Because of the uniquely durable and long-lasting material, these bags can be repurposed in multiple ways, even once they have been discarded by the company that originally used them.
These bulk bags find plenty of life being used in informal industries, such as litter pickers who use salvaged woven polypropylene bulk bags to collect and transport recyclable materials for the purpose of recycling those materials, giving polypropylene bags an extra lease on life and contributing to the circular economy.
They Are Good Value For Money
Woven polypropylene bags are rather inexpensive as far as transport packaging options go. Because they are such a cost-effective choice for businesses, they open up the possibility to invest more money in other areas of your logistics, which will make it more streamlined.
Given how affordable these bags can be, as well as their durability and long life, it becomes apparent that they are extremely good value for money. Woven polypropylene bags can withstand exposure to the elements without deteriorating significantly. They are flexible and durable enough to withstand rough handling. They won’t perish under excessive UV light exposure and can resist moisture quite effectively, particularly if they are aligned.
Another aspect of woven polypropylene bags’ value for money is the fact that these bags are so light that they also save on transportation costs by reducing the amount of weight.
