Overview
Tubular PP woven fabric is a material specially used for the production of woven bags. It is made of polypropylene (PP), with multiple strands of PP woven into a tube. As a durable and strong fabric, this woven fabric can be used in a variety of applications including packaging, agriculture, and construction. Due to its unique tubular structure, it has high strength and excellent tear resistance and can withstand heavy loads, making it ideal for packaging and transporting heavy goods such as construction materials or agricultural products. At the same time, these woven fabrics are lightweight and flexible, making them easy to handle and transport without adding unnecessary weight or bulk. It can also withstand sunlight without deteriorating or losing strength. For many outdoor applications, such as covering crops or protecting building materials from the elements, these woven fabrics can play an important role.

Features
1. Wide range of uses
These tubular PP woven fabrics are ideal for manufacturing various types of packaging. It can be made into woven bags and sacks to transport and store grain, seeds, fertilizers, building materials and other products.
2. Good breathability
Since this material is made using weaving technology, its structure is not completely airtight. Therefore, it is very breathable, making it suitable for use in shade nets, insect nets and crop covers.

During the manufacturing process, we have added materials that increase UV resistance, so these PP woven fabrics can maintain a very slow aging rate under strong sunlight and are not easily pulverized.
4. Easy to use
These woven fabrics are produced by us in roll form, so it is very easy to cut or perform other types of secondary processing during on-site processing. Its cores can even be installed directly on some packaging production equipment.
As a China-based manufacturer, we specialize in producing high-quality products for various industrial and commercial applications. Tubular PP Woven Fabric is a versatile and cost-effective material that offers many benefits to merchants in various industries. Its durability, flexibility and resistance to water, UV and moisture make it ideal for packaging, agriculture, construction and civil engineering applications. If you are looking for high-quality materials that can meet your industrial and commercial needs, this product will be an excellent choice.
PP Woven Fabric Production Process
(Tubular Woven Polypropylene Fabric for sacks, bags, and industrial packaging)
1. Raw Material Preparation
- Material Selection: we use virgin woven polypropylene (PP) granules as the primary raw material. Additives like masterbatch (Caco3), UV stabilizers or color masterbatch (e.g., for Yellow PP fabric roll, White PP fabric roll, or Green PP fabric roll) are blended to meet specific requirements.
2. Extrusion & Tape Yarn Production
- Film Formation: Melt PP granules into a continuous film, which is stretched and slit into high-strength tape yarn. This forms the base for PP woven fabric rolls.
- Tape Conditioning: Conditioned tape yarn ensures uniformity for weaving PP fabric rolls or woven sack rolls.
3. Circular Loom Weaving
- Tubular Fabric Production: High-speed looms weave tape yarn into seamless PP woven fabric rolls. Adjust weaving density to control the final PP woven roll price and performance.
- Color Options: Customize color PP woven fabric rolls (e.g., White PP fabric opens flat for printing, clear PP fabric rolls for visibility).
4. Post-Processing
- Coating/Printing: Apply coatings or print designs on PP woven bag fabric rolls. For example, White PP fabric open flat is ideal for high-resolution branding with Bopp or paper lamination
- Size Setting: Stabilize dimensions of woven polypropylene rolls to ensure consistency.
5. Quality Control & Packaging
- Inspection: Check for defects in PP woven fabric rolls (e.g., thickness, GSM weight color consistency in Green PP fabric roll).
- HS Code Compliance: Assign PP woven fabric rolls HS code (typically 6305 for textile sacks) for international shipping.
- Packaging: Protect woven sack rolls or PP fabric rolls with moisture-proof materials before dispatch.
Key Features of PP Woven Fabric Rolls
- Versatility: Available as White PP fabric open flat (for easy cutting) or pre-tubular PP woven fabric rolls.
- Cost-Effective: Competitive PP woven roll price due to efficient tubular weaving technology.
- Durability: Woven polypropylene rolls resist tearing, moisture, and UV damage.
- Custom Colors: Standard Milky white,Yellow PP fabric roll, Green PP fabric roll, or bespoke shades for branding.
