Industrial & Commercial Applications
The 15-inch width accommodates a wide range of products requiring custom-length packaging. Manufacturing facilities use this tubing for wrapping irregular-shaped components, protecting machined parts, and creating custom sleeves for cylindrical products. Distribution centers rely on poly tubing for bundling products, creating dust covers for stored inventory, and packaging items that exceed standard bag dimensions. The 3 mil thickness provides heavy-duty puncture resistance for industrial hardware, automotive parts, and metal components with sharp edges.
Food Service & Retail Applications
Made from 100% virgin low-density polyethylene, this tubing meets FDA requirements for direct food contact. Bakeries use it for wrapping long bread loaves, baguettes, and custom pastry lengths. Retail operations create custom-sized product sleeves for merchandise display. The print-treated surface accepts inks readily, allowing for branded packaging and product labeling.

Common Questions
Q: How do I seal poly tubing?
A: Poly tubing can be closed using a heat sealer (impulse or constant heat), staples, tape, or twist ties. Heat sealing creates the most secure, professional closure. For food applications, heat sealing is recommended for tamper-evidence and freshness.
Q: What products fit in 15-inch wide tubing?
A: When laid flat, 15" tubing creates approximately 7" of usable width (half the layflat dimension). Ideal for items up to 6.5" in diameter or width, with unlimited length capability. Perfect for long items like pipe, molding, rolled posters, or bundled products.
Q: Is this tubing recyclable?
A: Yes, LDPE (resin code #4) is recyclable through store drop-off programs and commercial recycling streams. Many customers recycle tubing scraps and offcuts through their existing plastics recycling programs.
