AD proTex bags: Next Generation cement packaging
The cement packaging in India has grown from jute bags to plain woven stitched valve PP bags and is now heading towards extrusion coated block bottom welded PP woven bags . Woven sacks provide perfect protection of the packaged product even under extreme transport conditions. Thanks to the innovative technology of the AD converTex machines, they also meet the demand of modern filling and logistic systems.
The AD proTex bag is produced by using hot air welding to seal the joints on the laminated woven fabric. Thus production of bag involves no usage of glue or threads reducing the cut and eliminating holes. The bag offers various advantages to the cement manufacturers some of which are as mentioned below:
· The AD proTexbags are designed for minimum headspace with low tolerances. So after closure of the bag pilferage with funnels etc. is near impossible.
· The Bag is produced using hot air welding thus requires no stitching or glue for production. Being adhesive free this method is environment friendly and makes production simpler and cost effective.
· The strength of the bag is very good and the bag is tamper resistant and cannot be opened without damage.
· The new micro-perforation system means different blains of cement can be packed easily without any flying of cement from the bag. The efficient perforation on the bag also allows good air ventilation minimizing bursting of bags and minimum moisture ingress (shower proof bags). Less flying of cement also means cleaner environment and production areas.
· The bag on filling takes a box type shape thus allowing easy stacking of the bag. This also allows the use of bag in modern palletizing systems.
· Box type shape of the filled bag also means more printing surfaces on the bag (bottom and top being flat). You can easily view the brand name and information when you see a stack of bags lying somewhere. This increase visibility for the customers adds to the brand image and better market value.
· The printing is done on the lamination so the print results achievable on the bag are very attractive. Marketing people love this bag!
· The bag is suitable for modern fast rotopackers, and is suitable for both manual and automatic placement on the filling spout. This is a bag for the future
· The bag is produced using state of the art equipment and is difficult to replicate without such equipment. This helps cement companies fight against counterfeiting.
Above advantages of the bag converts to following for a cement company :
· No loss of cement while handlingà Savings!
· End user gets full weight of cement bag paid for à Better reachability
· Creation of strong brand image and consumer pull due to better looking packaging solution à Greater customer appeal
· Matching international standards and style of packaging . Opens avenues for markets outside India.
· Greater customer confidence ability to fetch better prices.
The AD proTex bags can be seen as a long term strategic solution for the cement industry. The bag is already being used in the Indian market and is well accepted by the end users. Similar trends have been observed in lot of countries all around the world and some of our neighboring countries have already converted to the AD proTex bags.
AD proTex bag has a wide range of application in segments like fertilizers, sugar, gypsum, chemicals, cereals, pet food, plastic resins, salt etc. With all the above discussions and global trends its is well received that the AD proTex bag is the right solution for all your cement packaging needs.
