Commercial Applications
Poly tubing excels where standard bag sizes fall short. Manufacturing operations use 16" tubing for packaging cylindrical parts, rolled goods, and items of varying lengths on a single production line. Distribution centers cut tubing to create protective sleeves for posters, blueprints, and rolled documents. Food processors package elongated products like baguettes, bread loaves, and bundled produce. Retail operations create custom merchandise bags for odd-shaped items. The continuous roll format minimizes waste compared to stocking multiple discrete bag sizes.

Common Questions
Q: How do I seal poly tubing into bags?
A: Use a heat sealer (impulse or constant heat) to create permanent seals. For temporary closure, use tape, twist ties, or staples. Most operations seal one end, fill the product, then seal the second end.
Q: What can I package with 16" wide tubing?
A: When laid flat, 16" tubing creates bags approximately 8" wide (half the lay-flat width). Ideal for items up to 7" in diameter or width, with length limited only by how much you cut.
Q: Is this tubing food safe?
A: Yes. Made from 100% virgin low density polyethylene, this tubing meets FDA requirements for direct food contact applications.
