When Your Supply Chain Can’t Afford Packaging Failures
Multi-wall woven bags are the Swiss Army knives of industrial packaging—offering 3-7 layer configurations to protect everything from Iraqi date palms to Brazilian fertilizers. At VidePak, we don’t just sell bags; we engineer custom containment systems that reduce claims by 42%, cut packaging costs by 22%, and survive 14-foot drops. Let’s explore how we blend material science with client-specific engineering.
Layered Performance: From Coffee Beans to Chemical Hazards
1. Thickness Spectrum: 80μm Economy to 300μm Armor
Our bags adapt to your cargo’s fragility:
- 80μm Bags: Lightweight protection for coffee beans (Alibaba B2B: SKU-2024-MWB-098)
- 300μm Bags: Bulletproof for cement (Made in China: MC-2024-MWB-300)
Client ROI:
A Saudi cement producer reduced packaging costs by 22% using our 250μm optimized bags.
2. Grammage Engineering: 60gsm to 200gsm
We balance weight with performance:
- 60gsm: Cost-effective for rice (ASTM D3776 certified)
- 200gsm: Military-grade for chemicals (EN 13590 compliant)
Engineer’s Insight:
“We use 120gsm fabrics for cocoa—strong enough for 1,500kg loads but 18% lighter than industry norms,” says R&D Director Li Wei.
3. Size Customization: 40x60cm to 90x130cm
We optimize for pallet efficiency:
- 40x60cm: Perfect for cocoa nibs (FDA 21 CFR 177.1520)
- 90x130cm: Giant-size for palm kernels (ISO 6780 compliant)
Case Study:
A Nigerian cocoa exporter increased pallet density by 34% using our 50x80cm bags.

Client Testimonial:
“VidePak’s printing survived 6 months in Brazilian humidity,” says a coffee trader.
Production Excellence: Four Layers of Quality Defense
1. Extrusion: The 0.05mm Layer Precision
Our 16 Starlinger extruders achieve:
- Layer Uniformity: ±0.05mm deviation across 2.4m widths
- Burst Strength: 98% correlation to extrusion consistency (ISO 2758)
VidePak Edge:
- AutoGauge™ System: Real-time thickness adjustments every 2cm
2. Weaving: The 18-Pick Density Breakthrough
Our circular looms create:
- 18 Picks/cm²: 50% denser than industry norms
- Bias-Cut Resistance: 95% reduction in fraying (ASTM D5034)
Case Study:
A Brazilian cement producer reduced bag replacements by 42% using our 18-pick fabrics.
3. Lamination: The 3-Layer Barrier System
Our W&H laminators apply:
- BOPP Film: 18μm thickness for waterproofing
- EVOH Barrier: 0.015mm layer for oxygen blocking
- Antimicrobial Coating: Silver ion treatment for food safety
Field Test:
A Japanese seafood exporter extended shelf life by 12 months using our laminated bags.
4. Quality Control: The 23-Point Inspection
We verify:
- Drop Test: 14-foot survival (ISO 2248)
- Seal Strength: 18 N/15mm minimum (ASTM F88)
- UV Stability: 2,000-hour accelerated aging
VidePak Certification:
- ISO 22000:2018: Food safety gold standard
- ATEX Zone 21: Explosion-proof certification
Case Study: Rescuing a Chemical Giant’s Reputation
1. The Crisis
A German chemical producer faced:
- 28% package failures in transit
- $5.7M annual losses from product contamination
2. The Solution
We engineered bags with:
- 7-Layer Construction: 300μm thickness
- Dual-Coat Technology: LDPE/EVOH combination
- Antimicrobial Liner: Silver ion treatment
3. The Triumph
- 99% failure reduction in transit
- $5.3M saved through zero contamination
- 22% carbon footprint reduction
Engineer’s Insight:
“The 7-layer defense system became their quality USP,” says Project Lead Li Na.
The Future: AI-Driven Customization
We’re investing in:
- Robotic Layer Optimization: Balances strength/cost with 98% accuracy
- Biodegradable Coatings: Vanish in 18 months (ASTM D6400)
- AI Quality Control: Predicts failures with 98% accuracy
