Applications
Poly tubing is the go-to solution when standard bag sizes don't fit your products. Manufacturing operations use 7" tubing to package long components like metal rods, tubing, and extruded parts at custom lengths. Bakeries and food producers cut tubing to create exact-fit bags for baguettes, breadsticks, or specialty items. Print shops and packaging departments appreciate the treated surface that accepts printing inks for custom branding. Distribution centers keep tubing on hand for oddly-shaped items that won't fit pre-made bags, eliminating the need to stock dozens of specialty sizes.
