Frequently Asked Questions about Geological Bags

• What Are the Benefits of Cloth Sample Bags?
  At Hubco, we understand the benefits of cloth sample bags in the geological and mining industries. When you’re collecting soil, rocks, minerals, and more, it’s absolutely key to have a breathable bag that prevents contamination. Our bags offer great breathability, and they’re the perfect additions to your next excavation or researching trip. We carry economy-grade, Hubco Protexo, Hubco Sentry, Hubco Sentry II, Heavy-Duty Ore Sample Bags, and Hubco Microshield bags to ensure you have the correct bag for even the most specific of jobs. If you need a specific container, we also offer sand sample envelopes and storage cartons to keep your very fine samples safely collected and uncontaminated.
• Why Use Cloth Sample Bags?
  Cloth sample bags are very important in the geological field because they’re made to correctly collect and store soil, sand, minerals, and rock samples for researchers to use at any time without the concern of contaminated items. This is important because when you’re testing samples for any reason, you don’t want foreign substances to enter your sample and give you false results. We provide breathable options that will keep contaminants out of your sample while allowing air to escape. This is very important in cases such as soil samples, because if you seal the air inside, the moist soil can begin to grow mold and bacteria that wasn’t present at the time of collection. With our breathable bags, air can filter in and out and prevent those issues from arising. No matter what samples you’re collecting, the benefits of cloth sample bags are clear—they can effectively protect your research samples, no matter the circumstances.
