South Africa Polypropylene Bags Are Made To Last
IGC is a trusted supplier of packaging products in South Africa. Polypropylene bags are one of the packaging products which can be purchased in bulk from IGC.
Polypropylene Bags
The usage of polypropylene bags in South Africa is not limited to retailers only. Various vegetable bags, whether knitted or woven are available for usage in the agricultural industry. The bags come in a variety of colours which are normally selected according to the specific crops.
Why Polypropylene?
Polypropylene is made from polymer which is a base element for the making of a wide variety of products including:
- Packaging material
- Ropes
- Stationary
- Various car components
The base element is exceptionally strong and is called propylene. The component shows excellent resistance to acids and chemicals. Polypropylene is a rather cost effective product that also has excellent resistance to shape changes because of humidity and fatigue. The products can be made to be clear such as butcher and hardware bags.
Polypropylene as Relevant to South Africa for Making of Bags
It is often used for the making of fomo food containers, plastic bottles, and then of course, also the bags sold in South Africa. It is even possible to use polypropylene to make plastic plates which will not change shape because of hot water application.
South Africa - Polypropylene Bags Available
Polyethylene is used for the making of knitted vegetable bags in South Africa with sizes ranging from 3-25kg. The bags are exceptionally strong because the pockets are used for the packaging of vegetables and fruits such as oranges. The colours used range according to the specific crops and colours such as red, purple, mandarin and white are for example, available.
The circular woven bags are made from virgin polypropylene which has undergone specific anti-UV treatment to ensure a lifespan of around three months for each of the bags. 
Sizes range from 30 by 45 cm to 72 by 120 cm. Colours are also selected based on the specific crop and the bags are sturdy specifically to carry vegetables. Printing can be done on the bags. Many South African commercial farmers use these bags.
Woven vegetable pockets are furthermore available as part of the IGC range of South African polypropylene bags. The pockets are made through a weaving process using specifically virgin polypropylene. There are two sizes on sale. Colours range from white and purple to green and brown.
