The numerous advances in synthetic polymers have given us a variety of innovative materials, including polypropylene. When Giulio Natta invented polypropylene fabric in , he had no idea of the extent to which his creation would change the packaging industry.

You may have heard the term woven polypropylene regarding the commonly used FIBC bulk bags but what does it mean? 

Polypropylene (PP) is a type of thermoplastic resin that is now widely used across different industries. The synthetic resin material is completely resistant to acids, bases, and chemicals, which makes it the best material for many industrial applications. 

Woven PP is created by taking threads of the material and then interlacing them together to create a lightweight yet surprisingly sturdy fabric. This is how the FIBC bags or bulk bags are made. Woven PP bags are also called rice bags, salt bags, sandbags, coal bags, seed bags, feed bags, firewood bags, fertilizer bags, cement bags, and chemical bags depending on the region and industry.

Various Uses of Polypropylene Fabric Bags in Packaging 

In addition to being lightweight and waterproof, woven PP is also non-toxic and low cost. This makes it an adaptable and effective option for different applications:

Agricultural and Food Products 

FIBC bulk bags are largely used in holding and moving agricultural items like feeds, grains, vegetables, fruits, aquatic products, fertilizers, and more. As mentioned earlier, these bags are non-toxic so there is no risk of contaminating the food items. Also, they are anti-seepage, so items like salt, sugar, and flour can&#;t pass through the bags during transportation.

Daily Life Goods

The polypropylene fabric is often used to make travel bags, sunshades, and temporary tents. From farmers and construction workers to cargo agents, today almost everyone uses PP woven bags in one form or another. If you own a pet, the pet food you buy also usually comes in a PP bag or FIBC bag.

Geotechnical engineering 

PP woven bags are also used in the construction of roads, mines, ports, irrigation networks, buildings, railways, and pretty much everything else. These bags can perform the necessary functions required during the construction projects like filtering, isolating, draining, and more; this is why PP fabric is the preferred geosynthetic in many civil engineering projects.

Flood control 

Woven PP bags &#; in the form of Sandbags &#; play a critical role in preventing or reducing the detrimental effects of flood waters too. Since the polypropylene fabric is resistant to water, dust, and tearing, and don&#;t get affected by rodents or soil bacteria, they make excellent sandbags.

Sandbags were primarily designed for military applications and temporary flood defense but now they are used in construction industries across the world.
