When it is necessary to protect a sample from light, the Whirl-Pak® black bag is specially designed for this application. The polyethylene film is made from pigmented resins so the black color is an integral part of the bag and not a printed layer. The result is an opaque bag providing maximum protection for samples that are sensitive to light. It is ideal for pharmaceuticals, seasonings, flavors, food supplements, vitamins, marine life, and many other liquid or solid products. It is FDA approved for food contact.
The white, write-on strip makes sample identification easier and more convenient. Its easy to write on this white strip using an ordinary ballpoint pen, pencil, or felt-tip marker. The paper-like finish virtually eliminates ink smearing, and provides a surface that will accept a variety of writing instruments.
Capacity is measured in fluid ounces when the bag is closed and tab is folded over three times. Volume and dimensions are approximate; bags should not be used at temperatures above 180° F (82° C). Bags can be frozen to any temperature, even liquid nitrogen - careful handling required after freezing. All bags are sterilized after manufacturing.
