Buying direct from a manufacturer not only results in more competitive prices, you will receive a higher level of customer service as well as product quality. Here at mailingbag.com, we manufacture all the polythene products you see on our website. With over 40 years experience in the trade, we are confident the products we manufacture are above and beyond other products on the market.
Film Extrusion
With our array of extrusion machines, our film capabilities are endless. We are able to manufacture layflat tubing, centre fold sheeting and single wound sheeting in a spectrum of different colours as well as using materials and additives such as LDPE, MDPE, bio-degradable, oxo-degradable and UVI Stabliser to name a few. Our machines currently allow us to extrude from 15 micron (60 gauge) up to 300 micron (1200 gauge) with widths ranging from 50mm (2″) up to 1700mm (67″). Our extrusion department run 24 hours a day to commercially keep costs low, hence why we are able to offer such competitive product.
Bag Conversion
Our bag conversion capabilities are just as extensive as we are able to manufacture both plain side and bottom weld polythene bags, as well as wicketed and skirt side weld bags. As you can see from our website we also manufacture a large range of polythene mailing bags (commonly known as mailers or poly mailers). We are able to manufacture these in a range of different colours with either permanent or re-sealable glue strips for sealing the bags.
