Cautions Regarding Usage

• Problem during Width Processing: When using the 6mm width, if too much force is applied, it may stretch or tear, so it is necessary to be careful with the amount of force used.

Abundant Selection of 53 Colors

• This material is available in a very abundant selection of 53 color.

Basis for Color Names

• The names for the colors were carefully determined by comparing the actual colors (physical material) with traditional Japanese color names (as displayed on the web).

Important Note on Viewing Colors

• Please understand that the way colors appear may differ depending on the customer's individual color perception, viewing environment (such as lighting), and the device used (monitor, smartphone, etc.).
• To ensure the colors displayed on the website are as close as possible to the physical material, we placed a strong emphasis on image processing during the 2023–2024 website renewal.

✅ Merits (Advantages)

• Availability/Price: As a packaging material, it is easy to obtain. The unit price is low/inexpensive.

❌ Demerits (Drawbacks/Cautions)

• Limited colors (Color variations are restricted).
• The width is typically 15mm, resulting in few options.
• The material is stiff, which can easily cause pain in the hands when weaving.
• When force is applied, the material is prone to splitting vertically (longitudinally).
• Standard PP bands are primarily manufactured for the purpose of packaging luggage/cargo.

📌 Concise Summary

• The main attraction of PP bands is that they are inexpensive and easily accessible. However, the drawbacks are the limited choices of color and width, and the poor workability due to their stiffness and tendency to split.
