Amber bags primary function is to protect contents from harmful UV rays, which can degrade or damage items like medications, electronics, film, and photographs and other products that are sensitive to light.
The amber or brown color of the bags is crucial in aiding blocking out UV light transmissions. There is a possibility of producing UV protective bags without the brown color, however the protection will be much lower as the brown color additive adds an extra UV barrier.
Bags with UV protection are used to securely store and package items to protect them during shipping and transport. If you work in an industry that handles light sensitive objects, or are a collector of valuables that you want to protect from sun damage, these amber zip lock bags are a great solution for keeping your products protected from the sun's UV rays.
The lay flat open ended amber bags are easy to fill and seal or tape shut.
These amber bags are reusable and recyclable.
