Versatility of the cellophane versus gusseted bags
Belonging to a class of compounds often known in the discipline of organic chemistry as carbohydrates, in fact the base unit of cellulose is the glucose molecule. It is the combination of several glucose molecules that are often brought together in the cycle of plant growth that form long chains termed as cellulose. When it comes to the concern regarding the matter of degradability, innumerable tests have shown that the average total time for the complete bio-degradation of the cellulose films ranges from 28 to 60 days, especially in the case of the uncoated products, whereas in the case of the coated cellulose products, it takes almost 80 to 120 days.
When it comes to the use of cellophane bags, there is the rising debate, although it is a well known fact that those materials thought of as highly degradable, namely paper or green leaves, as a matter of fact they are known to take longer to degrade than cellulose film products. Cellophane bags are even today considered a high packaging material, used for all types of products, used especially for the storage of food products even the gusseted bags are I trend, widely used for the purpose when it comes to the lifting of containers, as well as for the secured packaging especially in the agro-products, chemicals, food-grains and fertilizer materials. Designed with an ability of standing vertically due to the unique construction, there is flexibility for the printing of one’s identity, on the gusseted portion, enabling its easy identification when kept in a pile, collectively.
Mostly preferred in the bakery industry, the Seitenfaltenbeutel (gusseted bags) also have versatility when one can easily expand their bottom, when it comes to the presentations that need to be attractive. Having expandable sides to add depth to the gusseted bags, they are indeed beneficial in the packaging industry. Often considered a high-grade packaging material, Zellglasbeutel (cellophane bags) is the one most-in-demand as compared to the other varieties available, mostly because of its being gifted with the capacity of storing the edible items, such as the baked items, or be it candies, cake mixes, above all the ideal choice for the packaging of greasy or oily products. Known to have average water vapor rating as well as an excellent machinability and heat seal-ability, the cellophane bags are not made from the rainforest trees, rather from the trees that are farmed and harvested especially for the production of cellophane.
