The film layer
Paper alone will not hold back humidity on a sea voyage. The film layer, and how evenly it is bonded to the plies, decides whether the powder still pours freely on arrival.
Valve sacks in 2-paper-1-film and 3-paper-1-film structures for 20–50 kg fills, with perforated plies, reinforced bottoms and multi-language printing.

Tile adhesive is denser than putty powder, often filled faster, and shipped to markets where humidity and rough pallet handling decide whether the bag arrives intact. The structure has to answer all three at once.
Final dimensions are set from your fill weight, product bulk density and filling spout.
| Structure | Typical size | Fill weight | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2-paper-1-film, outer valve | 39.5 × 35 × 10.5 cm | 20 kg | Tile adhesive and fine fillers on fast lines |
| 2-paper-1-film, outer valve | 45 × 40 × 11 cm | 25 kg | Standard tile adhesive and grout packs |
| 3-paper-1-film, reinforced bottom | 50 × 45 × 12 cm | 40 kg | Thick-bed mortar and heavier blends |
| 3-paper-1-film, reinforced bottom | 56 × 48 × 12.5 cm | 50 kg | Export loads and tall pallet stacking |
Paper alone will not hold back humidity on a sea voyage. The film layer, and how evenly it is bonded to the plies, decides whether the powder still pours freely on arrival.
Perforated plies let trapped air out during filling. Without them the bags sit unevenly, stacks lean and the bottom seams take the load at an angle.
Inner and outer reinforcement strips at the bottom are what keep a 25 kg bag intact through the drop from the filling spout and later on the pallet.
Most 20–25 kg tile adhesive uses a 2-paper-1-film structure with an outer valve. The film holds back moisture; the two paper plies give stiffness for stacking.
Air has to escape while the powder is blown in. Perforations let the bag settle flat instead of puffing up, which keeps stacks straight and reduces transit damage.
Yes. Multi-language printing is standard for building material packaging: brand artwork, mixing ratios, curing times, warnings and barcodes, in one to eight colours.
For humid destinations we increase the film layer and add inner reinforcement at the bottom, and we recommend pallet wrapping that keeps the outer paper dry in storage and transit.
