Poly bags in the supply chain

Whatever your product, it needs to travel through the supply chain in pristine condition. This could be from the manufacturing location to the distribution centre or to the consumer. After all, damaged goods increase returns and lost revenue, as well as having a negative impact on the environment. This is why poly bags are an essential.

Truly sustainable sourcing

A large portion of carbon emissions comes from the logistics in the supply chain. Our sustainable stitch-to-store sourcing model aims to minimise this impact.

With global distribution centres, we can ship your chosen labels directly to your vendor from the facility that’s closest to the destination. We’ll also handle all the stock management, so you have less to deal with.

What does all the terminology mean?

Biodegradable

Biodegradable plastics can be decomposed by living organisms — usually microbes — into water, carbon dioxide and biomass. These plastics are commonly produced with renewable raw materials, microorganisms, petrochemicals or a combination of all three.

Recycled and Recyclable

Plastics can be recycled through mechanical or chemical recycling. Mechanical recycling involves plastic being washed, ground and melted. Chemical recycling breaks plastic down into monomers to form new polymers that can be reused.

Compostable

Compostable plastics are derived from renewable materials such as corn, potato and tapioca starches, as well as cellulose, soy, protein and lactic acid. Compostable plastics and non-toxic and decompose into carbon dioxide, water and biomass.

Water soluble

This polymer is inherently biodegradable. Biodegradation has been observed by at least 20 different generaof bacteria and several yeasts and moulds which occur in activated sludge, compost, facultative ponds, landfills, anaerobic digesters and septic systems and in natural soil and aquatic environments. Sturm (aquatic) biodegradation tests show that the formulations degrade in the presence of activated sewage sludge at a similar rate to cellulose.
