Commercial Applications
Poly tubing excels where standard pre-made bags cannot. Manufacturing operations use 16" tubing to package long, irregular, or oversized items that exceed standard bag dimensions. Distribution centers create custom-fit packaging for machinery parts, rolled textiles, and bundled materials. Food processors package elongated products like bread loaves, submarine sandwiches, and baguettes at exact lengths with minimal material waste. Retail operations protect framed artwork, posters, and rolled merchandise with precision-cut sleeves.
Key Features
- Cut-to-Length Flexibility: Create exact-fit bags from 6 inches to 6 feet—no inventory of multiple bag sizes needed
- Heavy-Duty 3 Mil Construction: Resists punctures from sharp corners, industrial parts, and rough handling
- Multiple Closure Options: Heat seal, tie, staple, or tape shut depending on your application
- Uniform Wall Thickness: Manufactured to exact specifications for consistent sealing and clarity
- High Clarity Film: Allows full product visibility for inspection and retail presentation
Usage Guide
For heat sealing, use a standard impulse sealer set for 3 mil LDPE. Cut tubing to desired length plus 1-2 inches for seal allowance. Seal one end, insert product, then seal the opposite end. For non-sealed applications, simply cut to length and secure with twist ties, staples, or packaging tape. The 3" core fits most standard tubing dispensers and unwind stands.
