Dumpster Liners are Perfect for Manufacturing and Demolition

Joseph Coupal - Monday, January 16, 2012

Dumpster liners are huge garbage bags that are easy to fit in any dumpster. You can order dumpster liners in several thicknesses, sizes, chemical make-ups, uses, and packaging. Different industries and uses require different liner requirements.

Concrete companies, asbestos abatement companies, environmental services and all businesses of this type rely on dumpster liners to contain hazardous materials. Many states even demand the use of dumpster liners.

As an owner, manager or site superintendent you know that best business practices require dumpster liners. Insulation and asbestos abatement professionals are required by law to contain all materials which are hazardous to the environment and to public health.
 
Concrete companies have been the target of environmental agencies for years. The main concern with regards to concrete is the run-off of wash out material. Also, often manufacturing facilities produce a daily amount of liquid refuse or semi-solid refuse. Again, these companies depend on dumpster liners for daily operation to maintain man-hours spent on clean up.

Contact Atlantic Poly for size and specs of dumpster liners.


When Shipping Fragile Items Use Bubble Wrap

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, January 10, 2012

If you are in the business of packing, storing or shipping you use packing peanuts and bubble wrap. Obviously these are two products that offer protection for items when being shipped or or stored.

Everything needs to be as secure as possible in packing and shipping. However, for breakable items, an extra level of protection is required to meet your business standards and maintain your reputation. For this, there are a variety of packaging products available and one is bubble wrap.

Bubble wrap and bubble wrap envelopes are very popular for the display, storage and delivery of fine artwork. They are also perfect for electrical components, glass, china and everything breakable.

Packing peanuts are good for filling the voids in boxes of packed fragile items. However, bubble wrap is best because it can envelop the item for protection. Bubble wrap does not move and the item is perfectly protected and insulated.

Polyethylene Bubble Wrap provides protection from damage caused by shock or vibration. Poly Bubble Wrap is easy to use and reduces packaging time and labor costs. Atlantic Poly is a Polyethylene Bubble Wrap supplier. Bubble Wrap comes in rolls, bags, sheets, dispenser packs or as anti-static.

Bubble bags and bubble wrap envelopes with adhesive lips can be customized in a variety of sizes and weights. For sizes and prices on high quality, transparent protection for fragile items, contact Atlantic Poly.


Roll Off Dumpster Liners Contain Waste

Joseph Coupal - Monday, January 02, 2012

Dumpster liners are garbage bags for a dumpster but they are not all the same.  Dumpster liners are differentiated by thicknesses, colors, sizes, chemical make-ups, uses, manufacturing techniques, and packaging. Liner requirements are based on your company’s specific needs.

Dumpster Liners decrease the potential for airborne contamination. Concrete companies, asbestos abatement companies, and environmental service corporations rely on Roll Off Dumpster Liners daily keep hazardous materials contained.  The dumpster liner can be quickly installed so the dumpster is ready to use. Dumpster liners help companies conform to nationwide environmental laws.  

Often manufacturing facilities produce liquid waste or semi-solid waste. Bin Skins are very useful for this scenario. Stop waste from leaking from the dumpster as it is transported.   Dumpster Liners are mainly black opaque in color and thicknesses typically range from 3 MIL thick to 12 MIL thick.

Joseph Coupal - Monday, December 12, 2011

Delis, sub shops, grocery stores and boutique shops are just some of the types of businesses that use plastic bags. If your business uses plastic bags for customers, consider custom printed plastic bags. With a plastic bag hosting your name and brand, you have put your brand out to the public.

When your business requires customers to use a plastic bag to transport their purchases in, using custom printed plastic bags to promote your business is effective. Having your company's logo name and tag line on the bag goes a long way in increasing the brand recall of your business.

For branded plastic bags or printed poly bags with your logo or company information, Atlantic Poly has the capability to imprint poly bags in up to eight colors on two sides.

Contact Atlantic Poly for custom branded plastic bags for your business.
