Why Do We Need To Test The Bursting Strength Of Cloth Bag Material?

It’s a common sight to see people using cloth bags for shopping. Almost every shopkeeper today marks your grocery shopping with a question, “Do you need a cloth bag?”

With more and more people becoming environmentally conscious and switching to reusable bags instead of plastic packaging, there has been a tremendous rise in the production of Cloth bags in the packaging industry. Manufacturers of cloth bags or the fabric material must understand that this rise has brought a tough competition among them and to beat that they must leave no stone unturned.

How can cloth bag manufacturers ensure a maximum profit?  

Cloth bags are renowned for their reusable quality and biodegradable factor but less known facts are that it is the quality of fabric bag material that can help you to stand out in the market.

Quality testing of cloth bag material can bring out values like thickness, strength, capacity to hold weight etc. The comparison in these values decides the cost a manufacturer can quote in the market.

The quality decides for the material if it will be used by more and more bag manufacturers, or it will be selected for carrying a wide variety of stuff.

Bursting strength, a deciding factor in quality testing of cloth bag

Bursting strength is the capacity of a material (paper, fabric etc.) to retain its composition under external vertical pressure. A high-quality fabric must have higher bursting strength that means the material can withstand a higher amount of load for a long time. Such fabric material makes good quality carry bags that can be used by a broad spectrum of markets. 

Quality testing by a high standard  tester makes the difference 

Pacorr, one of the leading quality testing equipment manufacturers, brings Bursting Strength Tester, a highly accurate and standard-based machine. 

The equipment helps the fabric bag manufacturer ensure that their material quality is the best they can offer. The machine is equipped with a rigid platform where one can place the fabric sample to be tested. The sample can be fixed using clamps. This ensures less movement while testing procedures that bring high accuracy. Rounded rigid plates on the top are used to exert vertical load on the specimen. The pressure can be easily controlled by rotating clamps.

The easy push-button start feature immediately starts the test procedure and stops when the specimen bursts out under pressure. The amount of force the fabric took before getting damaged is its capacity and quality. The equipment also comes with an innovative digital meter that records and provides highly precise measurements of bursting strength.

With the continuous rise in demand for cloth bags, fabric bag material manufacturers must keep their product quality values in hand to compete and win the sales figure.
