Animal feed bags—also known as animal feed sacks or feed packaging—are essential for storing and transporting various types of animal feed. They come in various sizes and materials.
This guide will help you choose the most suitable animal feed bags for your needs.
Animal feed bags are typically constructed from woven polypropylene. Polypropylene is a strong, lightweight, and cost-effective plastic material that offers several benefits.
1, polypropylene bags can withstand significant weight and resist tearing or puncturing.
2, they offer a good barrier against moisture, protecting feed from spoilage due to humidity.
3, they can be laminated with additional materials for enhanced moisture resistance or come with features like self-standing block bottoms for easier handling. [1]
When buying animal feed bags, consider, first of all, the size. The bag size should be appropriate for the amount of feed you need to store or transport. Animal feed bags typically range from small bags for pet food to large bulk bags for commercial farms.
The material also matters. While polypropylene is the most common material, some feed may require specialized bags with additional moisture barriers or features.
Also, consider features like self-standing bottoms for easier handling, resealable closures for portion control, or degassing vents for certain types of feed. [2]
When picking an animal feed supplier, think of delivery options as well. Does the feed bag supplier offer delivery options? If not, you will have to add it to your cost decision. Large bulk bags may require specific delivery equipment.
Some suppliers may have minimum order quantities, especially for custom-printed bags. Be sure this aligns with your needs to avoid overstocking.
Depending on the customization level or bag size, there may be lead times for production. Factor this in when planning your feed purchases.
