Anti-UV Jumbo Bags

Anti-UV Jumbo Bags: Extended Durability and Load Integrity for Outdoor Storage

The exposure to direct sunlight is a threat to the integrity of any polypropylene (PP) woven fabric. The effect of the ultraviolet (UV) rays on the normal PP is a molecular degradation that results in a quick deterioration of tensile strength and, finally, structural breakdown. Anti-UV Jumbo Bag is the key product of Lakhotia Polyfab as it will be used in long-standing outdoor storage and long-haul transportation cycles, especially in areas with high solar exposure, such as in the coastal areas of Gujarat or high-endurance areas in the world. Through the addition of specialized stabilizing additives at the manufacturing stage, we make sure that the load-bearing capacity of the bag and its Safe Working Load (SWL) is completely protected against the forces of UV degradation.

The Science of Sun Protection: UV Stabilization

We are passionate about our Anti-UV performance, and we do not just apply it to the surface, but we incorporate it at the initial phase of the life of the bag, which is the extrusion of the polypropylene tape.

Integrated Additives at the Extrusion Stage

Protection starts with the raw polypropylene resin, which is transformed into the separate weaving tapes. High-performance UV stabilizing additives are also accurately added to the resin mix, and then the tape is stretched and woven. These additives are efficient as they absorb the harmful UV light energy and do not allow it to damage the polymer chains. This is quite unlike surface treatments, where protection is superficial, and thus the whole thickness of all the woven strands is uniformly covered.

Guaranteed Retention of Tensile Strength

The main objective of UV stabilization is to reduce the aging effect of the cloth. Normal FIBCs may lose up to half their tensile strength in a few months of intense exposure to sunlight. Our Anti-UV Jumbo Bags are designed in such a way that they can maintain the minimum specified percentage of their original tensile strength after a period of exposure (e.g., 6, 9, or 12 months, depending on the level of additives). This is because this is a guarantee that the original SWL of the bag will be reliable during its intended lifecycle.

Operational Necessity and Extended Lifespan

The clarity and life span offered by the high-quality UV stabilization make the bags invaluable to a given logistical and storage situation.

Maximizing Outdoor Storage Periods

The Anti-UV bag is a monetary necessity to clients who also work in agriculture, mining, or construction, where they have to store materials such as fertilizer, sand, or minerals and leave them outside for several months. It significantly lowers the chances of loss of products in case of unplanned bag failure, and thus, the container is also structurally sound until the discharge point. This is an important attribute of Multi-Trip FIBC Bags that are meant to be reused and checked again and again.

Protecting the Entire Assembly

UV additives can be used on the bag body only. In order to provide the integrity of the whole load-bearing system, we provide stabilization to all external polypropylene parts:

  • The Main Woven Fabric : The U-Panel or Four-Panel body construction.
  • The Lifting Loops: The critical point of failure, which must retain full tensile strength for safe handling.
  • Tie-off Cords and Closures: It is necessary to make sure that securing mechanisms are not weakened and that they cannot break in the sun.

Customization for High-Exposure Materials

The amount of UV protection depends on the product and the climate of the final destination, such that the client will get the maximum value of his or her investment.

Climate-Specific Dosing

Our technical department evaluates the target of the final application: whether this is a transitory shipment over temperate regions or whether we store the additive in high-UV equatorial conditions, and then actually doses the additive concentration to reflect it.

Color and Additive Compatibility

The UV stabilizers will be completely compatible with any coloring or Custom Printed Jumbo Bags specifications, which will not damage the desired outlook of the brand, but will guarantee the desired longevity of the bag.

Lakhotia Polyfab

When you purchase the Anti-UV Jumbo Bags offered by Lakhotia Polyfab, you will be insuring your bulk order against the harmful nature of sunlight and will be guaranteed on a certified scale that your packaging will retain its strength and safety integrity, no matter how long it may be under the sun.
