It’s Deer Season, and Southern Packaging is here to support your packaging needs with premium quality poly valve bags for deer corn and wildlife feed.
Woven PP packaging is a high-strength, cost-effective alternative to traditional multi-wall paper bags. Made from lightweight, moisture-resistant materials, poly bags are quickly becoming the preferred packaging style of major deer corn and livestock feed producers.
A woven poly “block bottom” or “valve” bag is a common industrial packaging style designed to package a wide variety of dry flowable products. Valve bags are packed on equipment that deposits material into the bag via a horizontal filling spout. After filling, forces generated by the product inside the bag allow the valve opening to self-seal.
Valve bags can be made with paper, woven poly, or poly film. Woven poly bags are made by extruding polypropylene resin into sheets, cutting the sheets into tapes, and weaving the tapes into the tubular fabric. The tubular fabric is then laminated, cut, and converted into a finished bag. Woven Poly bags offer several functional advantages over traditional multi-wall paper bags.
