Types of Plastic Bag Materials and Their Uses
Plastic bags are made from a variety of materials, each differing in terms of cost, thickness, customizability, and environmental friendliness. In the following lines, we will explain the types of plastic bag materials we use in manufacturing our plastic bags.
Types of Plastic Bag Materials
Plastic bag materials vary in thickness, strength, and their ability to carry weights and products that require special care, such as medical and frozen items. Here are the types of plastic bag materials that we provide at Al Mutahid Company:
-
Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
LDPE is an inexpensive plastic material known for its clarity. We often use it to make bags for fresh produce, frozen foods, and baked goods. Customizations, such as adding your store’s logo or marketing messages, can be easily done.
-
High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
HDPE is a durable plastic material primarily used to keep out moisture and resist grease and oils. It is commonly used within boxes to preserve contents like grain bags or cake mix.
-
Polypropylene (PP)
Polypropylene (PP) films are smooth, clear, and have good moisture barriers and high oxygen transmission rates. PP films are commonly used in bakeries and food markets but are less flexible than LDPE plastic materials.
-
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Shopping Bags
PVC shopping bags are among the best in terms of cost-effectiveness, soft texture, and light weight. Since PVC shopping bags offer multiple design options, you can create professional design ideas using a wide range of colors and textures.
-
Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Bags
Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bags are made from a saturated, crystalline polyester that provides strong, high-quality shopping bags. These bags can be used in the production of various shopping bags to offer a professional shopping experience and enhance customer loyalty to your brand.
In conclusion, these are the types of plastic bag materials that can help you obtain high-quality bags that meet your needs and expectations, whether you run a retail store, mall, or a shipping and delivery company.
