Overview
What it is
PP woven bags are made from extruded polypropylene tape woven into a high-tensile fabric. They are the standard industrial sack across agriculture, minerals, chemicals and general bulk goods, chosen for tear resistance and cost per unit at volume. Available plain, BOPP-laminated for print and moisture resistance, with or without a gusset, and with valve or open-mouth filling.
Not suited to
Untreated woven PP degrades under prolonged UV exposure. Specify a UV-stabilised grade for outdoor storage.
Best suited to
- Heavy-duty packaging
- Bulk storage & transport
- Agriculture
- Branding at volume

Material detail
The surface, close up
Woven polypropylene tape fabric. The weave shown is drawn to the material's own structure rather than photographed, because no macro of this substrate has been supplied — and a stand-in swatch of some other cloth would undercut the specification printed above it.
The photograph at the top of this page shows the product itself; this frame is for the cloth it is made from, which is a different question. A material macro occupies it at the same ratio once one has been supplied, with no layout change. No third-party product imagery is used anywhere on this site.
