Advantages:
PP/HDPE woven sacks are found superior in tensile test, stretchability (creep) test and drop test. The following are the merits of packaging above goods in HDPE/PP woven sacks which are mainly-
- Prevention of spillage and pilferage thereby reducing the wastage
- Better protection of properties of the material packed
- Better restriction of moisture permeation and insect penetration
- Higher moisture in the grain would evaporate through pores, therefore, higher moisture at the time of procurement would not pose any problem
- Temperature at the periphery of the bags being low and thereby resulting in less generation of insects
- Better insecticide persistency would reduce the number of applications and the cost involved
- Odour and taste of the commodity stored is not altered
- As for entomological aspects are concerned woven sacks would perform better and could be used for storage of grains
