High Performance Fluoropolymer Bags Made with Teflon® Film
Bags made from high performance materials are designed to withstand the most aggressive conditions. All of our bags are produced in our new Hampton, NH facility using state of the art thermal impulse sealers to strict quality guidelines. All of our welds are optimized and tested for maximum strength. Peel strength data and certification can be provided if required.
Characteristics of bags made from high performance materials:
- Chemically inert: Will not contaminate the contents of the bag
- Chemically resistant: Resistant to harsh chemistry and most solvents
- They operate at high temperatures. Upwards of 400 degrees F, (205C)
- They operate at Cryogenic temperatures -400 Degrees F (-205c)
- High impact and tearing resistance
- Non-wetting
- Non-stick, easily cleanable and re-useable
- FEP and PFA bags are optically clear almost all wavelengths of light
- Low permeability
High performance bags made from Teflon® FEP and Teflon® PFA and modified PTFE are used for:
- Sampling bags for liquids, gasses, and soil
- Cryogenic storage (Overwrap bags and tissue storage)
- Pail and drum liners
We add an additional inch of length to every bag in order to facilitate closing. Ingeniven offers
clip-n-seal brand closure devices for all of our bags. Visit www.clip-n-seal.com for more
information.
Barrier films are used in dozens of applications ranging from simple lay flat bags to complex
multi-layer
three dimensional containers.
High performance bags are used in the following industries and for the following applications:
- Gas & Vapor sampling bags
- Soil sampling bags
- Specimen collection bags
- Custom packaging bags
- Moisture sensitive packaging bags
- Cryopreservation overwrap bags
- Composite molding vacuum bags
- Epoxy mixing chemical bags
- Solvent recovery bags
A common mis-conception is that a bag with wider seals is always stronger, when in fact, a properly made thermoplastic weld has the same peel strength, regardless of width.

Not all bags are created equal! Sure, you can buy an off the shelf bag, but if your barrier bag
requirements
demand an engineered solution, then ingeniven is here to help you.
Ingeniven can help you design the bag that is right for you… Our engineers can guide you thru the
simple,
yet often overlooked issues to insure you have the right bag for the job.
When designing a bag, you should know the physical dimensions (Length, width, and Height) In
addition to the
volume it will need to hold.
What will the bag be required to do? Are moisture, sunlight, chemical attack, puncture resistance,
re-sealability important?
What is the best material for your particular application, and what is the best way to seal it?
Do you need a valve, septum fitting, tube, spout etc…..we can help you design and fabricate a custom
solution.
Is the bag going to support weight that might cause the material itself to fail? If so, then a liner
is
quite often a better choice. Ingeniven can fabricate pail, drum, and tank liners for any size or
shape
container you have.
Typically, Fluoropolymer films are used for overwrap bags due to their wide thermal operating range. FEP, PFA, Modified PTFE are all good choices.
