Heavy Duty Shipping Sacks (HDSS)

Will your industrial shipping bags carry the load?

Discover high-performance polyethylene materials to improve heavy-duty shipping sacks and industrial shipping bags. Designed to provide high product protection through every stage of the value chain, there are three different technologies used to create heavy duty shipping sacks (HDSS), each with differing benefits depending on user needs. Whether you’re transporting pet food, or you have a lorry full of herbicides, it’s crucial that your shipping sacks are up to the job. That’s why we offer a range of resins and adhesives to help address all of your HDSS challenges, from conversion filling to increasing packaging sustainability, all while maximizing performance.
