TUF-R Advantage
TUF-R LLDPE bags provide measurably better tear and puncture resistance compared to standard Low Density bags at the same gauge. This enhanced durability often allows you to use a lighter TUF-R bag in place of a heavier LDPE alternative—reducing material costs while maintaining protection. The strength comes from the linear molecular structure of LLDPE, which creates a tougher, more flexible film.
