Application of water soluble film
Pesticide pods
Designed specifically for agricultural production, they are suitable for the quantitative packaging of water-soluble fertilizers, pesticides, and plant nutrients. The advantage lies in enabling precise and safe convenient application in the field, where operators do not need to come into contact with the original chemicals, and the packaging has no residues.
Washing powder pods
Suitable for modern household and commercial laundry scenarios. It integrates multiple functions such as washing, color protection, and softening. Each bead dispenses an exact amount at once, simplifying the operation process while significantly reducing the use of traditional plastic packaging.
Dishwashing pods
Designed specifically for dishwashers, suitable for machine washing of daily tableware. It can efficiently clean and protect tableware from getting scratched, it is packaged in a fixed quantity to avoid waste, and the water-soluble film dissolves in water immediately, eliminating the risk of residue.
Floor Cleaner
Suitable for cleaning and maintaining hard surfaces. One unit can clean a certain area, dissolves quickly, effectively removes dirt and maintains the surface, eliminating the need for measurement.
Hand Wash pods
Suitable for convenient and enjoyable personal hand cleaning scenarios, such as during travel or in public places. It encapsulates the essence of hand sanitizer and dissolves upon contact with water to produce abundant foam, combining hygiene with a sense of ceremony.
Bath pods
Suitable for personal care that emphasizes the bathing experience. It encapsulates fragrances, essential oils, or care ingredients, dissolves in water, and releases them, providing a convenient, romantic, and skin-nourishing bathing experience.
Shampoo pods
Suitable for hair care, especially for travel or fitness scenarios. Each bead is encapsulated to maintain the freshness and activity of the ingredients. When mixed with water, it dissolves to form rich foam, achieving precise care and being convenient to carry.
Pet Bathing Balls
Designed specifically for pet bathing, especially suitable for situations requiring medicated baths or precise care. It can precisely control the amount of bath product used, is gentle and leaves no residue, ensuring the health of your pet's skin, and is easy to operate.
faq
1
Is water-soluble film safe for skin?
Yes, it is generally considered safe. The water-soluble film material used in mainstream laundry pods is polyvinyl alcohol (PVA or PVOH). This material is non-toxic and non-irritating, and is safe when in contact with the skin.
2
After the water-soluble film dissolves, will it leave residue on the clothes?
Under normal usage conditions, no visible or tactile residue will be left.
3
Is the water-soluble film stable in high temperature or humid environments?
Under normal indoor temperature and humidity conditions (such as 20-25°C, with relative humidity below 60%), the water-soluble film maintains stable properties and is easy to store and use.
To ensure that its performance remains at its best, the following storage conditions are recommended:
Temperature: It is suggested to store in a cool environment and avoid being placed in high-temperature areas (such as continuously above 40°C) to prevent affecting its physical properties.
Humidity: The environment should be kept dry and avoid contact with high-humidity air to prevent the film from getting wet. Under appropriate storage conditions, this film can maintain stable mechanical strength and the expected water-solubility properties.

What are the advantages of water soluble packaging?
● Precise quantification, efficient and convenient
Each individual package is pre-set with an accurate dosage, eliminating the need for weighing by the user. For example:
In the cosmetics industry (such as laundry pods, dishwashing pods): One per time, avoiding waste or improper dosage, simplifying the operation.
In the agricultural field (such as pesticide pods, fertilizer pods): Achieved precise application in the fields, able to dispense a specific number of pods according to the demand, ensuring effectiveness while reducing human error.
● Safe and environmentally friendly, reducing contact
Safe operation: The contents (such as high-concentration detergents, pesticides, shampoo essences, etc.) are completely sealed during storage and use, preventing direct contact with users and reducing the risk of irritation or errors.
Environmentally soluble: The film dissolves rapidly in water, leaving no residue, thereby reducing the waste of traditional plastic packaging at the source. For example, the film of laundry pods completely dissolves in the washing water after use.
● Stable performance, convenient storage and transportation
Under a reasonable environment of normal temperature and humidity, the packaging itself remains stable and can effectively protect the contents. The individual packaging also prevents the products from getting damp, oxidizing or being contaminated with each other, making it convenient for transportation and storage.
● Innovative functions, wide application
The water-soluble packaging form has expanded the design space of products, transforming them from traditional liquids and powders into a more compact, stable and interesting "gel bead" form, thereby extending their applications in various fields such as cosmetics, pet care, and modern agriculture.

Does the film have an expiration date?
Yes, the water-soluble film has a shelf life.
Shelf life: Under ideal storage conditions of being unopened and in a cool, dry environment, the typical water-soluble film and packaged droplet products usually have a shelf life of 18 months.
Key factors: The length of the shelf life depends on the film formula, production process, and storage environment. High temperature and high humidity will significantly shorten its effective lifespan.

How should the membrane be stored?
When the film is stored, it is already packaged in a sealed form, which provides a certain basic guarantee for the storage of the film.
7
Can enzyme-containing and enzyme-free formulations use the same membrane?
It's not necessarily the case. Usually, different membranes need to be evaluated or selected.
For enzyme-containing formulations, it may be necessary to use specially modified PVA films with enhanced enzyme resistance. We are willing to discuss the specific formulation with you and conduct compatibility tests and long-term stability tests to ensure the integrity of the packaging.
8
Does the water-soluble film completely dissolve in water at room temperature?
The membrane can be completely dissolved in water under normal temperature conditions.
