VidePak’s printed BOPP woven bags deliver unmatched chemical resistance, anti-microbial protection, and load-bearing durability (up to 1,000 kg), combining ISO-certified virgin PP materials, Starlinger weaving technology, and customizable designs to reduce feed spoilage by 30% and ensure compliance with EU/US/China safety regulations. With 30+ years of expertise, VidePak serves 50+ countries, producing 50 million+ bags annually for chemical, poultry, and livestock industries, achieving an 8000-ton monthly output and 98% defect-free rate.
1. Critical Requirements for Chemical and Feed Packaging
1.1 Chemical Resistance and Safety
Chemical packaging demands materials that withstand corrosive substances like acids, alkalis, and solvents. VidePak’s BOPP laminated woven bags feature a 20–30 micron polypropylene barrier layer, tested to resist pH 1–14 environments for 18+ months without degradation. For example, a Saudi Arabian petrochemical client reported zero leaks after storing 50 kg of ammonium nitrate in our bags under 45°C conditions for 12 months.
Key parameters:
- Tensile strength: 80–120 N/cm² (ASTM D5034), critical for stacking 10+ pallets.
- Permeation resistance: ≤0.5 g/m²/day for solvents (ISO 15105-1).
1.2 Feed Packaging: Combating Spoilage and Contamination
For poultry, livestock, and aquaculture feeds, VidePak’s bags integrate anti-fungal additives and breathable fabric (porosity: 120–150 GSM) to:
- Prevent mold growth: Inhibit Aspergillus flavus by 99.9% (tested per ISO 21527-2).
- Optimize airflow: Maintain oxygen levels below 2%, reducing oxidation risks in high-fat feeds.
A Brazilian poultry farm reduced feed waste by 25% after switching to our breathable BOPP bags, which prevented condensation in tropical climates.
2. Material Science and Structural Design
2.1 Virgin PP and Advanced Lamination
VidePak uses 100% virgin PP granules from BASF and Sinopec, ensuring molecular stability. Our Starlinger CX6 looms produce fabric with:
- Warp/weft density: 12×12 strands/inch, achieving 220 N/cm² burst strength (ISO 13938-1).
- UV stabilization: Bags retain 90% strength after 1,200 hours of UV exposure (ASTM D4329).
2.2 Customization for Feed Applications
- PE liners: Block moisture ingress (<0.3% humidity increase over 6 months) for hygroscopic feeds like fishmeal.
- Anti-static coatings: Surface resistance ≤10^8 Ω (IEC 61340-4-4) to prevent dust explosions in grain storage.
3. Regulatory Compliance and Sustainability
3.1 Global Safety Standards
VidePak’s bags comply with:
- EU REACH: SVHC substances <0.1% (verified via SGS).
- FDA CFR 177.1520: Safe for direct food contact.
- China GB 4806.7-2016: Heavy metals <100 ppm.
3.2 Circular Economy Initiatives
- Recyclable PP: 98% recovery rate via partnerships with European recyclers.
- Post-industrial recycled content: 30% in non-food bags, reducing carbon footprint by 40% (ISO 14040 LCA).

5. FAQs: Addressing Procurement Concerns
Q1: How do you prevent feed spoilage during transit?
A: Our breathable BOPP fabric (150–180 GSM) balances airflow and moisture control, maintaining feed integrity for 18+ months.
Q2: Can bags withstand high-temperature filling?
A: Yes. Heat-stabilized PP retains integrity at 120°C, ideal for molasses-coated feeds.
Q3: Are your inks safe for animal feed contact?
A: All inks are APEO-free and comply with EU Regulation 10/2011.
Q4: How do I choose between laminated and non-laminated bags?
A: Laminated bags suit liquid or powdered chemicals, while non-laminated options optimize cost-efficiency for dry feeds.
Q5: Do you offer RFID tracking?
A: Yes. UHF RFID tags (ISO 18000-6C) can be embedded for supply chain visibility.
6. Case Study: Enhancing Poultry Feed Logistics
