What is a polypropylene bag?

Alex Todd

A polypropylene bag is a type of packaging made from a material called polypropylene.

Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer that can be molded and shaped into a variety of objects, including packaging like bags, bottles, and containers. This type of packaging is often used for food storage because it is durable and has a good moisture barrier. Polypropylene is also recyclable.

A polypropylene bag is a packaging format that has been made using this specific type of plastic. Polypropylene is notable for being highly resistant to chemicals and other environmental factors, which makes it ideal for packaging medical equipment and food ingredients. However as a single/mono layer packaging it does not work well for long term preservation and storage. Here you want to look at a multi-layer barrier pouch.

Both polypropylene and multi-layer barrier pouches are ideal for heat sealer machines, allowing individuals and businesses to protect a wide range of products from decay, damage and degradation.
