There is steady global demand for eco‑friendly packaging and raw jute. India supplies high quality jute bags at competitive prices.
Grades and specifications
Jute bags are graded by fibre length, tensile strength and moisture content. Buyers usually ask for 30–35 mm thick, 1.5–2.0 mm fibre, 90–110 kg/m³ density, and a 5–10 % moisture limit. Packing is often in 50 kg bulk bags or 200 kg sacks with a 2‑inch thick outer layer for durability.
Target markets
Key destinations are the EU, USA, Canada, Australia and parts of Africa and the Middle East where sustainability is a priority. Demand is driven by packaging regulations, organic food sectors and textile manufacturers seeking low‑carbon inputs.

- FSSAI or BIS/GMP if the product is food‑grade or industrial
