1. Overview and Development of PP Square Bottom Valve Bags

 

PP square bottom valve bags are high-strength composite woven bags made primarily from polypropylene (PP) through a unique heat-sealing process. Developed by Austria’s Starlinger company in the 1990s, these bags quickly gained popularity in industries like cement, fertilizer, and animal feed due to their eco-friendliness, lightweight design, durability, and cost-effectiveness.

Traditional cement and powder packaging typically used paper or plastic bags, which often faced issues like insufficient strength, poor resistance to damage, and inadequate moisture-proofing. PP square bottom valve bags address these shortcomings with innovative production techniques and material improvements, making them a globally recognized packaging solution.

Gachn Group's PP square bottom valve bag-making machines stand out for their advanced technology and production efficiency. Fully automated, these machines handle everything from cutting woven fabrics to outputting finished bags in a single streamlined process, ensuring high productivity and consistent quality.

 

2. Types of PP Square Bottom Bags

 

Based on design, functionality, and application, PP square bottom bags can be categorized into the following:

 

01. Valve Bags

• Equipped with automatic sealing valves, suitable for automated filling equipment.

• Micro-perforated surfaces allow air to escape quickly, preventing powder leakage.

• Ideal for products with high flowability or requiring efficient filling, such as cement, gypsum powder, and chemical powders.

• By valve type:

    ♦ Long-valve bags: Feature extended valve openings for applications requiring additional sealing or specific filling equipment.

    ♦ Short-valve bags: Designed for quick and efficient industrial filling processes.

• By material:

   ♦ PP Woven Valve Bags: Made of polypropylene fibers, offering high mechanical strength and water resistance. Laminated options enhance moisture-proof performance.

   ♦ BOPP Valve Bags: Coated with high-gloss BOPP film, providing superior waterproof and dustproof properties, along with high-definition printing for branded packaging. Common in fertilizers, animal feed, and food products requiring high visibility.

   ♦ Paper-Plastic Composite Valve Bags: Comprising an outer layer of PP woven fabric and inner kraft paper, they combine high strength and water resistance, making them ideal for transporting building materials in humid regions.

02. Open-Top PP Square Bottom Bags

• Feature an open-top design for manual or machine sealing, catering to diverse packaging needs.

• Commonly used in fertilizers, animal feed, food products, and industrial raw materials.

• The square-bottom design ensures stable stacking and easy transportation, making them suitable for high-capacity products like 40-50 kg of cement or mortar.

03. Hand-Carry PP Square Bottom Bags

• Open-top design with integrated handles, making them reusable as durable shopping bags.
