The Manufacturing Process of PP Woven Bags at Tan Hung JSC: A Behind-the-Scenes Look

At Tan Hung JSC, one of Vietnam’s leading PP woven bag manufacturers, we specialize in producing high-quality, durable, and sustainable packaging solutions trusted worldwide. Our reputation is built on advanced technology, strict quality control, and decades of experience in polypropylene woven fabric production.

PP woven bags are widely used across industries such as agriculture, animal feed, construction, food packaging, and retail due to their strength, cost-efficiency, and recyclability. But how are they made? Let’s take a behind-the-scenes look at our step-by-step manufacturing process, where raw polypropylene resin is transformed into strong, reliable PP woven bags.

Step 1: Raw Material Preparation and Extrusion

Selecting Virgin Polypropylene Resin

The process begins with 100% virgin polypropylene (PP) resin, sourced from trusted suppliers. Virgin resin ensures superior strength, flexibility, and durability compared to recycled alternatives. At Tan Hung JSC, we store raw resin in controlled conditions to maintain consistency and quality.

Blending with Additives

Depending on customer requirements, additives such as color masterbatches, UV stabilizers, and functional enhancers are carefully blended with the resin. This allows us to customize PP woven bags for outdoor use, long-term storage, or specific branding needs.

Extrusion into PP Tapes

The resin mixture enters an extruder, where it is melted and forced through a die, forming thin flat strips known as PP tapes (or yarns). These tapes are the essential building blocks of PP woven fabrics.

  • Cooling: The tapes are cooled in a water bath or over chilled rollers.

  • Stretching: Tapes are stretched under heat to align polymer molecules, improving tensile strength and flexibility.

  • Winding: The stretched tapes are wound onto bobbins, ready for weaving.

This stage is critical because tape thickness and strength determine the durability of the final woven fabric.

Step 2: Weaving the Polypropylene Fabric

High-Speed Weaving Looms

The wound bobbins are loaded onto circular and flat weaving looms. These machines interlace warp (lengthwise) and weft (crosswise) tapes into woven polypropylene fabric.

  • Controlled Weave Density: The number of tapes per inch is precisely monitored to achieve the required fabric strength and GSM (grams per square meter).

  • Continuous Monitoring: Skilled technicians ensure there are no tape breakages or misweaves during the process.

Output and Inspection

The woven fabric emerges from the looms in large rolls, which undergo thorough inspection for weaving consistency and defects before moving forward.

Step 3: Coating or Lamination (Optional)

For specific applications, PP woven fabric requires lamination to improve barrier properties and printing quality.

  • PE or BOPP Film Application: A thin layer of polyethylene (PE) or biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film is applied using heat and pressure.

  • Moisture and Dust Resistance: Lamination enhances protection, making the bags ideal for food, animal feed, and chemical packaging.

  • Superior Print Surface: BOPP lamination allows for vibrant, high-resolution printing with brand logos and product details.

The laminated rolls are cooled and rewound for the next stage.

Step 4: Printing (Optional)

When branding or product information is required, PP woven bags undergo printing.

  • Artwork Preparation: Customer designs are converted into printing plates or cylinders.

  • Flexographic Printing: Using a flexographic press, ink is transferred to laminated or unlaminated woven fabric. Multi-color printing is achieved through multiple printing stations.

  • Drying and Inspection: Printed fabric is dried to ensure ink adhesion, then inspected for accuracy, color consistency, and sharpness.

Step 5: Bag Conversion – Cutting, Sewing, and Finishing

Cutting the Fabric

Large rolls of woven fabric are cut into predetermined dimensions using automated cutting machines.

Sewing or Heat Sealing

The cut pieces are converted into bags through stitching or heat sealing depending on the design:

  • Stitched Bags: Strong polypropylene thread ensures durability for heavy-duty use.

  • Valve Bags & Block-Bottom Bags: Specialized machinery produces bags tailored for cement, chemicals, and industrial use.

Adding Functional Features

Based on customer needs, features such as handles, drawstrings, gussets, liners, or easy-open strips are added.

Quality Assurance

Every batch undergoes strict quality checks for:

  • Bag dimensions

  • Seam strength

  • Fabric consistency

  • Print accuracy

Only bags that pass all checks move to final inspection.

Step 6: Final Inspection and Packaging

Before shipping, finished PP woven bags are carefully checked and prepared:

  • Visual and Strength Inspection: Bags are checked for defects, weaving irregularities, or print misalignment. Random samples undergo load-bearing tests.

  • Counting & Bundling: Bags are counted, bundled, and packed according to customer specifications.

  • Secure Packaging for Export: Bundles are protected to ensure safe delivery to customers worldwide.
