PP Raffia RH03 (Woven)
PP Raffia RH03 is a woven polypropylene fabric made from homopolymer polypropylene resin, designed for high strength, durability, and excellent dimensional stability. It is widely used in the manufacturing of woven sacks, bags, and other flexible packaging solutions. The woven structure enhances tear resistance and load-bearing capacity, making it suitable for industrial and agricultural packaging applications.
Primary Uses
