VidePak’s open mouth PP bags combine unmatched durability, customization, and adherence to international standards, making them the ideal choice for industries requiring high-performance bulk packaging solutions. With a production capacity of over 50 million bags annually and certifications spanning ISO 9001, ASTM D5260, and EU REACH, VidePak delivers reliability at scale.
1. What Are Open Mouth PP Bags?
Open mouth PP (polypropylene) bags are woven sacks designed for easy filling and sealing, widely used for packaging dry bulk materials such as fertilizers, grains, and construction materials. Their structure features a wide opening at the top, enabling rapid filling via automated or semi-automated systems, followed by stitching or heat-sealing for secure closure.
Key Advantages:
- High Load Capacity: With tensile strengths up to 1,200 N/5 cm (warp) and 1,000 N/5 cm (weft), these bags safely hold weights ranging from 10 kg to 50 kg.
- Customization: Available in sizes from 35 cm × 60 cm to 110 cm × 110 cm, with options for multi-color printing, UV coatings, and anti-static treatments.
- Cost Efficiency: Lightweight yet robust, they reduce shipping costs by up to 30% compared to traditional jute or paper bags.
VidePak’s open mouth bags, produced using Austrian Starlinger circular looms and extrusion lines, ensure uniformity in weave density (8×8 to 12×12 strands per inch) and lamination thickness (80–120 microns).
2. VidePak’s Global Compliance Framework
Operating across 60+ countries, VidePak prioritizes compliance with regional and international standards to guarantee product safety and market acceptance.
Certifications and Standards
- ISO 9001: Ensures consistent quality control across 16 extrusion lines and 100+ circular looms.
- ASTM D5260: Validates tear resistance (>35 N) and seam strength (>80% of fabric strength).
- EU REACH & EN 13590: Restricts hazardous chemicals and ensures ergonomic handling.
- Japan JIS Z 0237: Certifies moisture barrier performance (<5 g/m²/24h).
For instance, our bags for the EU market undergo rigorous third-party testing for heavy metals (lead < 90 ppm, cadmium < 75 ppm) and phthalate-free adhesives.
3. Technological Excellence in Production
VidePak’s manufacturing infrastructure includes:
- 100+ Starlinger Circular Looms: Producing 120–160 bags/hour with <1% defect rates.
- 30 Lamination Machines: Applying BOPP or PE coatings for enhanced moisture resistance.
- 16 Extrusion Lines: Using virgin PP granules (MFI 3–8 g/10 min) for optimal melt flow.
Case Study: A fertilizer producer in Brazil reduced spillage by 40% after switching to VidePak’s laminated open mouth bags with 120-micron BOPP layers and reinforced bottom gussets.
4. Customization and Sustainability
Tailored Solutions:
- Printing: Up to 8-color flexographic printing with ≤0.2 mm registration accuracy.
- Add-Ons: Euro slots, tear notches, or circular handles for retail displays.
Eco-Friendly Innovations:
- Recycled PP Blends: 30% post-consumer recycled content without compromising tensile strength.
- Biodegradable Additives: Accelerate decomposition in landfills by 50%.
