How We Slashed Energy Bills by 63% With a 2MW Rooftop Solar Farm
Tubular Woven Bags aren’t just packaging—they’re the future of industrial sustainability. At VidePak, we’ve built a solar-powered FFS (Form-Fill-Seal) ecosystem that cuts energy costs by 63% while eliminating 4,200 tons of CO2 annually. The backbone? A 2MW rooftop solar array that powers every bag we produce. Let’s explore how we’re turning sunlight into packaging innovation.
The Green Revolution: From Solar Panels to Closed-Loop Systems
1. Zero-Carbon Production: The 2.8M kWh Annual Miracle
- Solar Capacity:
- Powers 16 extrusion lines and 100+ circular looms
- Generates $78,000/year in surplus energy sales
- Certifications:
- TÜV Rheinland “Zero Carbon Factory” (2023)
- LEED Platinum for Manufacturing Facilities
Eco-Impact:
Our solar system powers 98% of FFS operations—reducing grid dependence to just 2% during monsoon months.
2. Material Alchemy: Turning Trash into Tear-Resistant Bags
- Recycled Content:
- 100% PCR-HDPE (post-consumer recycled plastic)
- 0.8% bio-fillers from agricultural waste
- Performance:
- 92% tensile strength retention vs virgin resin
- 450N/5cm tear resistance (TAPPI T807 certified)
Circular Economy:
We recycle 98% of production scrap into new bags—diverting 1,200 tons/year from landfills.
3. FFS Speed Demon: The 12-Second Packaging Revolution
- Throughput:
- 5,000 bags/hour at 99.2% OEE
- ±0.5mm seal precision (3σ capability)
- Energy Use:
- 0.45 kWh/kg bag (47% below industry average)
Client Success:
A Brazilian sugar mill cut packaging costs by 34% using our solar-powered FFS lines.
The VidePak Production Edge: Where Sunlight Meets German Engineering
1. Material Science: The 0.3% Purity Protocol

- Barrier: 0.5cc/m²/day O2 transmission (MOCON tested)
Quality Control:
FTIR spectroscopy ensures 99.7% material purity—exceeding FDA 21 CFR §177.1520 standards by 0.3%.
2. Weaving Precision: 14×14 Thread Count Engineering
- Looms: Starlinger circular weavers at 400 RPM (0.2mm precision)
- Tape Production: 3,000 filaments with 2.2N/tex tenacity
- Burst Test: 450N/5cm resistance (TAPPI T807)
Field Application:
A Saudi cement plant increased pallet stacking by 22% using our tear-resistant bags.
3. Printing Mastery: 8-Color Solar-Powered Precision
- Ink System: Siegwerk UVFlexo inks (98% solids, 0% VOCs)
- Registration: 0.1mm color-to-color accuracy (G7 Master Certified)
- Durability: 45° wash-off resistance per ASTM D6195
Brand Boost:
A Vietnamese coffee exporter increased market share by 12% using our vibrant 8-color printing.
