Water-soluble bag manufacturers provide an assortment of products designed for storing, transporting and cleaning soiled linens. This makes these bags especially helpful in hospitals, nursing homes and health care facilities, where they help isolate soiled laundry to prevent infection.
PVA grades are fast approaching the threshold needed to be considered at least industrially compostable; however, external proof may still be lacking for many suppliers.
Biodegradable
Plastic waste is a global problem. Single-use plastics contribute to environmental degradation and water pollution, which poses public health concerns. To address this growing concern, industries have begun exploring solutions that reduce plastic pollution in our environment – such as water-soluble bags.
Water soluble bags are comprised of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA or PVOH) and organic plastics, producing an oxo-biodegradable material which is non-toxic and odorless – offering an environmentally-friendly alternative to chemical pods.
PVA laundry bags for hospitals can be used to isolate contaminated textiles before being placed into the washing machine, protecting both direct contact with them as well as protecting both themselves and their equipment from possible contamination. They dissolve completely during washing to eliminate direct contact between fabric contaminants and direct contact with their machine itself.
Eco-friendly
Plastic pollution plagues our world, and finding ways to decrease it has become an increasing priority for many people. Luckily, eco-friendly alternatives such as reusable cutlery and water-soluble laundry bags are becoming more widely available as ways to help.
These bags can dissolve in hot or cold water without leaving any marks in washing machines, clothing or linens, and they can even be printed using non-toxic inks that make them both eco-friendly and safe for their wearer.
These bags provide a cost-effective alternative to polybags for holding contaminated clothing in hospitals, nursing homes and other health care facilities. Plus, their use reduces the need for staff members to touch potentially infectious materials directly – helping limit germ spread!
Economical
Utilizing non-polluting material as packaging can reduce waste by decreasing plastic consumption. This is particularly effective for industries producing large volumes of chemicals, such as textile dyeing which involves mixing multiple chemical powders together for dyeing purposes and then storing them securely within water-soluble bags without risking contamination or spillage.
Water-soluble bags can also be an asset in healthcare environments, where they can help keep contaminated laundry from spreading bacteria between patients, nurses and housekeeping staff.

Durable
Manufacturer of hot and cold water-soluble laundry bags available in various sizes and colors. Bags can be used to isolate, store, transport and clean soiled clothing in healthcare & hazardous waste facilities such as laundries, hospitals, prisons, nursing homes hotels & camps. Bags are impervious to gases as well as organic solvents greases oils & gases while remaining reusable with no metal content.
PVA-based polybags are often recommended as an environmentally-friendly way to address single-use plastic waste, but this claims must be scrutinized closely. Many official life-cycle assessments demonstrate their much higher carbon impact compared to LDPE polybags typically used. Furthermore, hydrolysis rates (how much PVA is converted into polyvinyl alcohol) play an integral part in this regard.
Versatile
Water-soluble packaging offers a significant environmental advantage over its plastic counterpart, taking only months or years to disintegrate completely and biodegrade into nothingness. As it gains in popularity among packaging professionals and companies alike, its eco-friendliness promises dramatic impactful on our planet over time.
The present invention provides a composite uniplanar water soluble film composed of two strips bonded at their edges with cold water-soluble plastic films that dissolve upon cold-water immersion, and one strip that disintegrates upon an increase in temperature. Both sections disintegrate over time.
