Bags meant for storage often find usage in homes. There are some bags that are of one time use and there are some that can be reused again. Those that can be reused are termed as resealable or reclosable bags. One such kind includes ziplock bags. These bags are meant for storing usually food and dairy products. Made of Polyvinyl Chloride, the bags are meant for storing deep freeze food items usually.
These bags are different from resealable bags in a way they are closed. The bags are closed with seals by pressing and opened with hands. In ziplock bags, the packets are resealed and opened by Zips that can be dragged on the edges of the bag. You may get many kinds of bags available in market that vary in different shapes and sizes. From square to rectangular they come in more shapes than one can think of. The sizes can be as small as the size of a computer mouse and as big as a computer screen. Small ones are used invariably in storing items like stamps; buttons, coins, toy parts etc. and large ones are used to store materials like clothes and electronic items.
Shielded bags are also reclosable bags that are used often in storing items like remote controls, batteries etc. These bags are sold with casings in market. They can be also used to store ornaments because the use of transparent bags will not serve the benefit of storing ornaments in shielded bags. They are used in storing high sensitive components that does not allow the material stored inside to decay.
Reclosable bags are basically meant for retaining the vacuum inside the bag so that moist, dust, dirt and insects are kept at bay. The zip in ziplock bags is made of plastic usually but can be made of other materials like wood too. Often the materials through which the zip is made is said to be light in weight. They are either equivalent to the bag’s weight or lighter than it.
These bags are great for storing purposes because they help in more ways than one. They help today and will continue to do so in future as they are hardly irreplaceable.
