- Polythene film is chemically inert and does not impart any residue or taste.
- All our polythene bags are made from “food safe” film. Please view our food spec for 8x12 LDPE poly bags.
- 100 gauge or 25 microns thickness is ideal for keeping items dust free.
- Please refer to the film thickness guide for further information on light duty poly bag film thickness.
- Size specification: The first measurement gives the opening/width of the light duty poly bag unopened/unfilled.
- Size specification: The second measurement gives the height/length of the light duty poly bag.
- 150 gauge or 38 microns thickness is ideal for packing items with smooth edges.
- Please refer to the film thickness guide for further information on medium duty poly bag film thickness.
- Size specification: The first measurement gives the opening/width of the medium duty poly bag unopened/unfilled.
- Size specification: The second measurement gives the height/length of the medium duty poly bag.
- Linear low density resin material permits these poly bags to be of a thinner gauge, yet still providing stronger puncture resistance and overall strength as a standard low density poly bag with a higher gauge.
- 200 gauge or 50 microns thickness is suitable for storing heavy items.
- Please refer to the film thickness guide for further information on heavy duty poly bag film thickness.
- Size specification: The first measurement gives the opening/width of the heavy duty poly bag unopened/unfilled.

Strong polythene bags
- This gauge of poly bags eliminates tears, punctures and broken bags.
- Strong poly bags are suitable for protecting heavy and abrasive items.
- All bags have bottom welded heat sealed seams - very strong.
- Click here to see a strong polythene bags 10x12 250g close up.
- Strong poly bags are made by applying a seam to one end of the material. The seal on the bottom of bag is made for heavy duty strength.
- 250 gauge or 63 microns thickness is tough and hard wearing.
- Please refer to the film thickness guide for further information on bottom weld bag film thickness.
- Size specification: The first measurement gives the opening/width of the bottom weld bag unopened/unfilled.
- Size specification: The second measurement gives the height/length of the bottom weld bag.
- These poly bags are made by applying a seam to one end of the material. The seal on the bottom of bag is made for heavy duty strength.
- 500 gauge or 127 microns thickness is extremely tough and hard wearing and has excellent load carrying capacity.
- We can make stronger poly bags: 700 gauge poly bags or even 1000 gauge poly bags. However these poly bags must be made to order. They require specific machine set up and a larger order quantity: typically 5,000 poly bags minimum.
- Please refer to the film thickness guide for further information on bottom weld bag film thickness.
- Size specification: The first measurement gives the opening/width of the bottom weld bag unopened/unfilled.
- Size specification: The second measurement gives the height/length of the bottom weld bag.
Clear bags on a roll
- Each clear bag on a roll is 250 gauge thick.
- 50 bottom welded perforated bags on each roll.
- Easy to tear perforation separates each clear bag.
