Welcome To Halsted Bag Corp.
Please take a moment of your time to "get to know us."
We feel strongly that our company can provide you with a service that is unmatched in the area of imported woven polypropylene Bulk Bags as well as 'small' wove polypropylene bags.
Halsted Corporation, a member of FIBCA and TBPA, is one of the largest importers of woven polypropylene bags in the United States. Established in 1876, we have been manufacturing textile bags for agricultural and industrial packaging since our inception. In 1980, we responded to increasing price pressures by beginning an import program for some of our polypropylene products. Although we still manufacture textile bags today in Jersey City, over 80% of our sales are attributed to imported bags and materials.
Our strength is in providing a comprehensive purchasing program for packaging distributors and bag companies. We do not solicit end-users. We have no salespeople competing with your staff. What we do have is a knowledgeable in-house support team to help you compete in this market.
We handle the sourcing, quality control, financing, transportation logistics, U.S. Customs entries and even the warehousing and distribution for your imported bags. Our staff is actually present several times per year in all of the factories we buy from – a crucial element in our successful relationships with suppliers.
It is very easy to find a foreign source for bags. What is not easy is to find a source with consistent quality and pricing with whom a long-term working arrangement can be maintained. It can take many years to assess capabilities and to identify the best supplier for a particular type of bag. We have spent over 20 years doing just that . We have ISO-9002 factories that we use for the most complicated bags ( conductive, sift-proof, etc) and other factories that we know are best for the one-trip, price-sensitive inquiries. Buying in several different countries also protects us from economic and political disruptions in the market.
We offer flexibility. Certainly we can ship full 20’ or 40’ containers direct to your designated location. But we can also offer you the option of partial containers shipped to New York where we will unload and distribute for you. You gain the advantage of buying smaller quantities at “shipment” prices and the lowest 40’ container freight cost.
We also carry an extensive inventory of stock bulk bags in our Jersey City facility for immediate shipment. We can ship in your company’s name using your labels and your Bills of Lading.
You don’t need to devote the extensive resources and time necessary to develop an effective in-house import program. We have that in place for you and we would like the opportunity to show you that we can be a valuable asset to your sales efforts.
