Pool & Water Treatment Packaging
Heavy-duty bags for pool filter media, water treatment chemicals, and pool maintenance products, serving major brands across multiple product lines.
Packaging for the Pool & Water Treatment Industry
Friesen Plastics is a major supplier of packaging to the pool and water treatment industry, producing packaging across multiple product families and lines. Our pool product bags are engineered for the unique demands of heavy mineral filter media and chemical treatment products, fill weights up to 50 lbs, chemical compatibility, and the need for clean, professional branding at pool supply retailers.
Filter sand, zeolite and other filter media are packed in our heavy-gauge white polyethylene with 2-finger die-cut handles for customer convenience. Our BRC-certified facility ensures consistent quality across every production run.

Packaging Features
5–6 Mil with UV Inhibitor
5–6 mil film handles the abrasive, heavy nature of sand filter media during filling and transport, and a UV inhibitor keeps bags from breaking down when stored outside.
2-Finger Handle
Die-cut finger handles are essential for 25 lb and 50 lb sand bags, allowing pool service technicians and consumers to safely lift and carry heavy products.
Chemical Compatibility
Film formulations tested for compatibility with chlorine-based chemicals, mineral media, and water treatment products. No degradation or contamination risk.
Professional Branding
Photo-quality flexographic printing for brand identity across major pool product lines. Consistent colour reproduction across all product variants.
