Gusseted Tubing

Gusseted tubing from Caltex Plastics is the ideal solution for packaging unwieldy goods, multiple small components, bulky items and more. The rolled material makes it easy to create to-length cuts so you can use it across product lines.

Features

The primary characteristic of gusseted tubing is sealed side gussets that fold inward, lie flat within the tubing and expand only when you place products inside. That design allows us to tightly wind the film around its core for a compact storage footprint.

Other features our gusseted tubing offers include:

• Compliance: This tubing complies with regulations established by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
• Durability: Our high-quality solutions offer extra peace of mind against product damage with effective puncture, temperature, moisture and abrasion resistance.
• Customizability: We can print the tubing with colors and marketing assets that reinforce your brand on your bags.
• Affordability: Our options provide a cost-effective packaging solution that’s sturdy yet lightweight, helping you save on transportation costs.
• Flexibility: This material expands along the sides to package challenging or oddly shaped products.
• Compatibility: Our gusseted tubing works with many popular automatic and semiautomatic packaging machines for easy integration into your production lines.
• Versatility: You can close your bags by tying, sealing or taping them according to your unique product needs.
