What is a Woven Bag?
Woven bag refers to a bag made of natural fibers (including jute, cotton, etc.) or synthetic fibers (such as polypropylene). Using these materials, two or more strands of fabric are woven in a crosswise manner, creating a bag with a durable structure.
Bags woven from natural fibers are typically biodegradable and are considered a more environmentally friendly choice. On the other hand, woven bags made from synthetic fibers, while not an environmentally friendly option, possess characteristics such as durability, moisture resistance, and chemical resistance.
The Type of Woven Bag
Jute Bag: Possesses extremely strong moisture absorption and release capabilities, is easily decomposable, and has high strength. Due to jute’s inherent antibacterial and mite-resistant properties, jute handbags also exhibit good cleanliness and hygiene.
Cotton Bag: Priced higher than non-woven fabric bags but can be repeatedly cleaned and reused. Easily degrades in natural environments.
Canvas Bag: Similar to cotton bags, easy to degrade, and even more robust and wear-resistant. It also has good waterproof performance.
The Pros and Cons of Woven Bags
There are many pros and cons to using woven bags for your business. On the plus side, woven bags are made from interlocking fibers that give them a sturdy structure. This makes them ideal for carrying heavier items or for use in harsher environments. They are also reusable, which is great for the environment. On the downside, woven bags can be expensive to buy in bulk and and they’re not as easy to store since they take up more space.
What is a Non-woven Bag?
A non-woven bag is a type of shopping bag made from a material that is not woven. Non-woven bags are usually made from polypropylene, which is plastic. This bag is a new type of fiber product formed directly using methods such as slicing, short fibers, or long filaments of high polymers through various fiber web forming techniques and bonding technologies. It possesses a soft, breathable, and flat structure.
They are often used for packaging or storing products and they are also recyclable. Non-woven bags are cheaper to produce than woven bags, and they can be printed with logos or other designs.
The Pros and Cons of Non-woven Bags
Non-woven bags are made from a variety of materials, including recycled plastics and natural fibers like cotton. They can be reused multiple times and are recyclable themselves, making them a more sustainable option than traditional plastic bags.
They are a lower-cost alternative to shopping bags, with a pollution level to the environment decreasing to 10% of plastic bags when used more than 10 times and discarded.
However, non-woven bags also have some drawbacks. They’re not as strong as woven bags, so they’re more likely to tear. And because they’re made from a variety of materials, it can be difficult to know what kind of bag is best for your needs.
