In the chemical industry, where even minor packaging flaws can lead to product loss, safety hazards, or regulatory penalties, VidePak’s Block BOPP bags reduce leakage risks by 98% through multi-layer lamination, micro-perforation technology, and compliance with global safety standards. Designed for fertilizers, plastic pellets, activated carbon, and disinfectant powders, these bags combine 35–40 N/mm² tensile strength (ASTM D5035), 0.04–0.06 mm BOPP/PE laminated layers, and 1,500 kg load capacity to ensure secure containment and logistics efficiency. With 30+ years of industry expertise and a production capacity of 6 million bags/month, VidePak delivers engineered solutions trusted by clients across 60+ countries.
The Science of Leak Prevention: Material and Design Innovations
Chemical powders pose unique challenges: fine particles escape through microscopic gaps, hygroscopic materials degrade standard packaging, and corrosive substances weaken seams. VidePak’s Block BOPP bags address these issues through:
1. Multi-Layer Lamination
- Outer BOPP Layer: 0.04 mm biaxially oriented polypropylene provides UV resistance (1,200 hours QUV testing) and abrasion protection.
- Middle PP Woven Fabric: 12×12 thread density ensures tear resistance up to 15 N/mm (ASTM D1004).
- Inner PE Liner: 0.03–0.05 mm polyethylene acts as a moisture and chemical barrier, reducing permeability to ≤5 g/m²/24hr (ISO 2528).
Case Study: A South African fertilizer manufacturer reduced product loss by 22% after switching to VidePak’s laminated BOPP bags, validated by third-party leakage tests under EU Fertilizer Regulation 2019/1009.
2. Micro-Perforated Valve Design
Inspired by block bottom valve bag technology, VidePak integrates laser-cut micro-perforations to:
- Release trapped air during filling, increasing packing density by 15%.
- Enable automatic sealing post-filling, eliminating manual intervention.
Regulatory Compliance: Navigating Global Standards
Selecting compliant packaging requires aligning material properties with regional regulations:
| Region | Key Standards | Critical Parameters | VidePak’s Solution |
|---|---|---|---|
| EU | EN 15522 (Chemical Leakage) | ≤0.1% particulate loss after vibration tests | Triple-layer lamination + PE liner |
| USA | ASTM D1709 (Impact Resistance) | 500g dart drop resistance at -18°C | Reinforced seams (30 N/15mm heat seal) |
| Japan | JIS Z 0200 (Moisture Barrier) | ≤3% moisture absorption after 48hrs | 0.05 mm PE liner + anti-static coating |
| China | GB/T 8946 (PP Bags) | 1,000+ cycles of top-lift testing | 14×14 high-density weave + UV stabilizers |
Example: For炭黑 (carbon black) packaging, which demands anti-static properties under Australian Standard AS/NZS 1020, VidePak integrates conductive strips into seams to dissipate charges, reducing ignition risks.

FAQs: Addressing Procurement Concerns
Q1: How do I choose between PE liners and aluminum foil liners?
A: PE liners suit non-corrosive powders (e.g., fertilizers), while aluminum foil is ideal for volatile chemicals (e.g., disinfectants) requiring ≤0.5% moisture permeability.
Q2: Are your bags compatible with automated filling systems?
A: Yes. Our block bottom valve bags feature micro-perforations compatible with 95% of pneumatic fillers, reducing downtime by 20%.
Q3: What’s the MOQ for custom-printed designs?
A: MOQ starts at 10,000 units, with a 15-day lead time for 8-color prints.
Q4: How do you ensure compliance with EU REACH regulations?
A: We use phthalate-free inks and PP resins meeting SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) thresholds.
