15" Low Density Poly Tubing - 1.5 Mil Thickness
Low density polyethylene (LDPE) tubing provides versatile, custom-length protective packaging for items of varying dimensions. This 15" width, 1.5 mil thickness tubing allows operations to cut precise lengths and heat seal both ends, creating made-to-measure bags for products that don't fit standard bag sizes. Manufactured from 100% virgin LDPE resin, this tubing meets FDA requirements for direct food contact applications.

Applications
This 1.5 mil tubing is ideal for light-duty commercial packaging applications across multiple industries. Food service operations use it for bakery items, produce, and bulk dry goods.

Distribution centers create custom protective sleeves for furniture components, textiles, and retail merchandise. The treated surface accepts printing inks, making it suitable for branded packaging applications.
Key Features

Technical Considerations
The 1.5 mil thickness provides basic moisture and dust protection suitable for non-abrasive contents. For heavier items or products with sharp edges, consider upgrading to 2 mil, 3 mil, or 4 mil tubing in the same width. Tubing can be sealed using heat sealers (recommended for food applications), impulse sealers for faster production, or mechanical fasteners for non-critical applications. Store rolls in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to maintain film clarity and sealing properties.
