VidePak’s waterproof PP woven bags set industry benchmarks by combining 40% lower water vapor transmission rates than standard PP bags, ISO 9001-certified raw material sourcing, and AI-driven quality control systems that reduce defect rates to 0.2%. Through strategic partnerships with BASF and Sinopec, coupled with 16-stage material testing protocols, we deliver bags that withstand monsoons, coastal humidity, and sub-zero storage while maintaining FDA and REACH compliance. With 100+ Starlinger circular looms and 30 years of expertise, VidePak produces 8 million waterproof bags annually for agriculture, chemicals, and food industries.
1. Raw Material Excellence: The Foundation of Waterproofing
1.1 Supplier Vetting and Strategic Partnerships
VidePak’s 4-tier supplier selection process ensures only globally certified partners enter our supply chain:
| Criteria | Requirements | Top Partners |
|---|---|---|
| ISO Certification | ISO 9001, ISO 14001 | BASF, Sinopec, Yangzi Petrochem |
| Technical Capability | MFI consistency ≤±5% | Dow Chemical, Borealis |
| Market Reputation | Top 3 in regional PP/PE production | ExxonMobil, SABIC |
- Case Study: Our 10-year contract with BASF guarantees MFI 25–35 g/10min PP homopolymer at 12% below spot market prices.
1.2 Incoming Material Inspection Protocol
Every batch undergoes 6 critical checks before production:
- Visual Inspection: Rejects batches with discoloration or contamination (defect rate <0.01%).
- Melt Flow Index (MFI): Tested per ASTM D1238 (tolerance ±2%).
- Tensile Strength: ≥28 MPa (ISO 527-2).
- UV Stabilizer Content: 0.3–0.5% via FTIR spectroscopy.
- Density: 0.905–0.915 g/cm³ (ASTM D792).
- Ash Content: ≤0.1% (ISO 3451-1).
All data integrates with our SAP QMS, enabling real-time traceability from resin pellets to finished bags.
2. Waterproofing Technologies: Beyond Basic Lamination
2.1 Multi-Layer Co-Extrusion Systems
VidePak’s proprietary 5-layer structure combines functionality and economy:
| Layer | Material | Function | Thickness |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outer | UV-stabilized BOPP | Weather/abrasion resistance | 40–60 μm |
| Adhesive | Maleic anhydride PP | Interlayer bonding | 15–20 μm |
| Barrier | HDPE + 5% nano-clay | Moisture blockage (≤0.8 g/m²/day) | 80–100 μm |
| Strength | PP homopolymer | Load-bearing (2,500–3,200 N/5cm) | 120–150 μm |
| Inner | Food-grade PE | Contamination prevention | 30–50 μm |
2.2 Seam Engineering for Absolute Watertightness
- Ultrasonic Sealing: Generates 180–220°C localized heat for molecular bonding (seam strength ≥85% base fabric).
- Double-Stitched Needles: 316L stainless steel needles with 12–14 stitches/inch prevent wicking.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: How do your waterproof bags compare to PVC alternatives?
A: PP/PE structures offer 30% lower cost, 100% recyclability, and equal chemical resistance without phthalate risks.
Q2: Can I get custom logos on waterproof bags?
A: Yes. Our 8-color HD flexography achieves 150 LPI resolution, resistant to saltwater fading.
Q3: Are these bags compatible with automated palletizers?
A: Absolutely. Anti-slip coatings on BOPP layers enable robotic handling at 1,200 bags/hour.
6. Quality Assurance Ecosystem
VidePak’s vertically integrated system ensures consistency:
- Blockchain Tracking: Raw materials to end-users via Hyperledger Fabric.
- In-Line Sensors: 25-point moisture detection during extrusion (precision ±0.5%).
