Abstract: High density polyethylene of HDPE woven sacks have become a versatile commodity in the packaging industry. Introduced for the first time in India during the year 1969 it has over the years replaced the conventional jute bags to a large exte`nt. HDPE sacks have an edge over the conventional jute sacks in the sense that the former are light in weight, strong and attractive. These sacks are immune to the effect of corrosion, decay, moisture, atmosphere, rats, rodents, moths and insects. Being superior in quality and economic to the traditional jute material, these modern sacks have gradually captured a large market for packing fertilizers, chemicals, food stuffs, animal foods, oil cakes etc. Sacks made of HDPE are laminated with low density polyethylene inside it. This gives protection against moisture, air and the material packed cannot penetrate out of the sack.
