Water soluble packaging is truly a gift of technological advancement. Multiple water-soluble bag manufacturers are using the latest technology and modern processes to offer a revolutionary product in the packaging industry. As the name suggests, water-soluble packaging refers to the bags/packages that dissolve or disintegrate when they come in contact with water or moisture. In simple words, these are the packages that automatically dissolve in water while disseminating the package contents into the water without causing any sort of contamination.
The majority of water-soluble bag manufacturers use natural materials and biodegradable polymers to design water-soluble packages. Using such harmless materials ensures that the packaging doesn’t contaminate the water and the contents inside the package when dissolved in water.
There are multiple advantages of using water-soluble packaging over traditional packaging. Some of the most pressing advantages that have accelerated the demand for these water-soluble bags include:
Eco-friendly and sustainable packaging:
Water-soluble packaging is composed of biodegradable material which makes it an eco-friendly option. By completely dissolving in water, these bags. packages do not leave any harmful residue behind and never contaminate the water. It offers a sustainable packaging solution against traditional packaging which creates harmful waste and causes environmental pollution. The government has imposed regulations in various sectors along with increasing awareness campaigns for the adoption of green environmental practices, and the trend and demand for water-soluble bags are increasing.
Offers safety to handle hazardous chemicals:
Harmful and hazardous chemicals and materials such as industrial chemicals can be packaged inside a water-soluble bag. Using these bags offers protection to the users as they don’t have to get in contact with the contents of chemicals while using the bag. They can safely pick up the bag and add it to water without getting exposed to harmful chemicals that can be dangerous to human health. Unlike traditional packaging, the user does not have to open the package and take the risk of accidently touching the contents inside which can be quite harmful for the user.
Convenient usage:
Water-soluble packages offer great convenience in usage. All users need to do is add the package or bag to water and let it dissolve itself without any need for supervision or interference. The users save the time and trouble of opening the product and measuring it to make sure that they have added the right amount of content. With water-soluble packages, the users know what amount of product is packed and they simply have to add or drop the bag in water and wait for it to dissolve. It is also easy to carry especially during travelling in comparison to the traditional packaging.
Versatile usage:
The water-soluble bag manufacturers can produce water-soluble packages in a versatile fashion. They can be manufactured for usage in multiple industries. They can be used in agriculture, healthcare, manufacturing, and the hospitality industry. The widespread usage in multiple industries makes it a versatile product that can benefit almost every major sector and offers a convenient and contamination-free packaging solution.
Ensure hygiene of contents:
When enclosed in a water-soluble bag, the contents of the package stay hygienic and safe. As the user does not have to open the package and touch the contents, like they used to do in traditional packaging, it ensures that the content inside the package stays untouched and does not get contaminated with a human touch. This way the contents maintain the hygienic value which is of utmost importance in certain industries like medical industry where the product’s hygiene is crucial to get the desired results and benefits.
Controlled release:
Water-soluble bags are great for usage as a controlled release of the product. Controlled release is a requirement of many industries whereby it takes considerable time it release the product in a controlled manner. It offers great benefits for fertilizer dissolution, chemical disintegration, gardening, etc. It allows the contents to gradually dissolve in the water or liquid to make sure that the desired benefits are sought out. To understand it better let's consider an example. It can slowly dissolves chemicals which gives considerable time for the user to get away from the water to save themselves from any unfortunate accident and environmental impact of gases emitted from chemicals. Similarly, it can offer great benefits in gardening where gradual dissemination strengthens the root and ensures good growth.
Customization:
Water-soluble packages can be manufactured in a way that offers customized usage. This means that they can functionaled to dissolve in water at different paces or time durations as per the particular requirements of the content enclosed in those packages. Customization can be achieved in multiple ways. The water-soluble bag manufacturers use multiple techniques to control the dissolution time including thickness of package, temperature requirement, usage of starch vs PVA film, agitation requirement, etc. Customization can be highly beneficial as it offers the desired convenience in usage. For example: A water-soluble detergent package dissolves instantly as the user requires it to disintegrate quickly to wash the clothes, whereas a fertilizer water-soluble package requires a few minutes to dissolve in soil to ensure lasting effect, user safety, and nutritional benefits.
Calculated usage:
The usage of water-soluble bags offers the advanatage of calculated product usage. This is because the content quantity in a single package is specified by the water-soluble bag manufacturers. This saves the users time measuring the product while using the product. For instance: the users can directly put the required number/s of water-soluble detergent bag as compared to measuring the detergent before putting it in the washing machine. In addition, it also reduces waste which is quite usual in traditional packaging. For example, while measuring the detergent powder, the user can likely drop some of it accidentally, whereas the water-soluble bag eliminates any such chance of accidental waste.
Innovative solution:
The greatest advantage of water-soluble packaging is that it offers a great chance for manufacturers to offer an up-to-date packaging solution to their customers. They can lure customers with modern and innovative packaging solutions. Moreover, it also allows them to do attractive branding, and reposition the brand with effective marketing by offering an updated packaging solution.
