Key Features
- TUF-R Strength: LLDPE film provides superior puncture resistance versus standard LDPE, protecting contents from tears and pinholes
- Economical Gauge: 1 mil thickness can often replace heavier LDPE bags, reducing material costs and environmental impact

- Versatile Size: 15x18 accommodates folded apparel, towels, pillowcases, and similar textile products
Material Comparison: TUF-R vs Standard LDPE
TUF-R Linear Low Density bags use a different molecular structure than conventional LDPE, resulting in enhanced tensile strength and puncture resistance. This allows commercial operations to often downgrade to a lighter gauge TUF-R bag while maintaining equivalent protection. For example, a 1 mil TUF-R bag may perform similarly to a 1.5 mil standard LDPE bag in many applications, delivering cost savings and reducing plastic consumption.
