Hop HDPE Bale Packs
Tough Natural Fibre. Trusted Performance.
Ritex HDPE Hop Bale Packs are designed for growers, processors, and exporters who require a strong, stable, and export-grade packaging solution for hops and other bulk crops. Manufactured from heavyweight, UV-stabilised HDPE cloth, these packs maintain their shape under compression, stack cleanly, and resist bulging — ensuring reliable handling from harvest through to international shipment.
Produced by long-standing, trusted manufacturing partners, each pack is made from clean, new HDPE cloth — never recycled or downgraded materials — to ensure consistent strength, predictable performance, and traceable quality across every batch.
The heavy-duty HDPE fabric delivers excellent resistance to wear, abrasion, and weather exposure, while UV stabilisation supports outdoor storage during peak harvest periods. Packs retain their structure under load, helping reduce transport risk and allowing for secure, uniform stacking on farm, in storage, or in transit.
Supplied in bales of 50 and available through both stock and indent ordering, Ritex Hop Packs provide a dependable solution for local operations and high-volume export runs alike
