Why the Right Produce Bag Dimensions Matter

Not all produce bags are created equal. While appearance may be similar, the right dimensions and thickness make a significant difference in product handling, presentation, and overall customer satisfaction. Selecting the correct produce bag dimensions helps retailers:

  • Save on material costs
  • Improve packing speed
  • Minimize product damage
  • Reduce waste
  • Align with packaging regulations

At Hanpak, we help you choose the best fit for your specific market and application.

Popular Sizes for Produce Bags On Roll

We manufacture a wide range of bag sizes designed to suit different types of produce and shopping needs:

Most grocery retailers prefer 250 x 400 mm and 300 x 450 mm as these sizes offer ideal volume without excess material.

Thickness Options Explained

Produce bag thickness, measured in microns, directly affects durability and cost. Below are the most common ranges we offer:

  • 7–10 microns: Thin, lightweight bags used in high-volume stores
  • 12–15 microns: Balanced strength for common produce packing
  • 18–25 microns: Heavy-duty options for bulk goods and rough handling

For eco-focused buyers, we also offer thinner biodegradable bags that still maintain strength while reducing environmental impact.

How to Choose the Right Combination

Choosing the right bag width, length, and thickness depends on several factors:

  • Product Weight: Heavier items need thicker films to prevent tearing
  • Usage Frequency: High-turnover stores need lighter, more cost-effective rolls
  • Display Preferences: Transparent bags improve visibility and attractiveness
  • Storage Conditions: Bags in humid environments should be thicker or moisture-resistant

Hanpak’s consultants help you balance functionality and cost through our flexible production options.
