The Air Extraction Bag is manufactured by laminating VAP film, vacuum bag film, and flow guide mesh using a hot-melt (heat-sealing) process. It can be produced in I-shaped, T-shaped, or H-shaped configurations according to customer requirements.
Engineered for vacuum infusion applications, this product offers low production cost, high efficiency, and 100% air permeability. By optimizing airflow during the infusion process, it extends working time, prevents indentation on infused parts, and significantly improves the surface finish, consistency, and overall quality of composite components.
✅ No Indentation on Infused Parts — The integrated VAP film layer regulates air evacuation and prevents resin channel marks, ensuring a smooth, defect-free surface.
✅ Extended Working Time — Optimized airflow reduces premature resin gelling and extends the operational window of your vacuum infusion system.
✅ 30–50% Labor Saving — Pre-assembled multi-layer design eliminates on-site cutting, aligning, and taping of individual consumables.
✅ Stable High-Temperature Performance — Rated for continuous use at up to 120°C (overall assembly); individual layers withstand up to 160°C.
✅ 100% Air Permeability — Flow media permeability ≥ 2 L/m²/s for rapid, uniform air removal.
✅ Improved Product Consistency — Repeatable layer structure and bonding ensure uniform quality across every infusion cycle.

Our air extraction bags are suitable for all vacuum infusion processes across a wide range of composite manufacturing industries:
Designed for large-surface carbon-fiber and glass-fiber structures, ensuring uniform resin distribution and void-free consolidation in oversized blade molds.
Trusted for hulls, decks, and superstructures requiring zero-void surface finish and structural integrity.
Delivering consistent compaction for body panels, chassis parts, and interior structures in carbon-fiber and glass-fiber automotive production.
Suitable for flat and curved architectural or equipment panels in both prototyping and mass production.
Compatible Infusion Processes: RTM · VARTM · VARI · LRTM · and other resin infusion methods

During vacuum infusion:
The air extraction bag is placed over the laminate.
The flow media allows air to move quickly toward the vacuum outlet.
The VAP film regulates air evacuation, preventing resin channel marks.
Vacuum bag film maintains negative pressure.
Resin flows evenly without leaving indentations or defects.
The result is a stable vacuum environment and smooth, defect-free composite surface.
