Long before polypropylene plastic (PP) was introduced to the market, conventionally, paper bags were used for packaging of the products. Paper used to rip and tear, causing unavoidable loss and waste. This packaging was also vulnerable to spoilage as it did not provide an airtight seal after being opened.
Over the decades, packaging has evolved way ahead and has come to encompass qualities that safeguard the products, is easy to handle and that can be easily branded. When such options are available, it becomes important to have the packaging right as it impacts the customer’s perception of the product. Manufacturers have to give attention to goods and products during storage, packaging and shipping as they are likely to be affected by the following factors:
- Physical factors such as handling and shipping
- Chemical factors such as exposure to moisture, heat, and other components that might react with the product.
- Biological factors such as insects, pests, rodents, etc.
Hence, a manufacturer has to be particular in not only choosing the right packaging material but also about the entire process of packaging. The manufacturer has to consider the following packaging requirements:
- Should have the ability to protect the contents from spoilage and spillage
- Should offer protection against environmental conditions especially moisture
- Should prevent insect infestation and insect damage
- Should offer protection against microorganisms
- Should possess necessary strength properties to withstand mechanical hazards during transportation and storage
- Should assist in selling by attractive graphics
- Should be economical and easily available
Polypropylene woven bags have all the qualities mentioned and act as the perfect storing and packaging product. Moreover, they have good stacking stability and can save a lot of space. They are cheaper than the traditional jute bags and extremely durable as can be stacked under a simple shelter and transported with minimum spillage. Laminating or lining the PP bags further increases a product’s life and utility.Moreover, it is important to choose the best packaging option for a product when the product needs to be shipped at long distances, and hence is likely to be handled roughly by multiple entities.
Unit packaging also is important for a manufacturer of goods. This is especially true in the case of food items and agro items. Unit packaging with fixed quantity makes the transaction easy and quick for the seller.
Recent trends suggest that consumers are looking for clear branding, clean packaging and simple yet effective design. Since the preservation of food products like sugar, wheat and cereals is more difficult, the demand for films and laminates in PP bags are on the rise for increasing shelf life.
