16" × 20" flat poly bags in 2 mil LDPE for protecting fine art prints, unframed photography, giclees, and retail print merchandise during sale, storage, and shipping. The 16×20 dimension is one of the most common standard print and photo sizes, making this bag a natural fit for art galleries, photography studios, print-on-demand fulfillment, and home décor retailers who sell prints in standard frame-ready dimensions.
The 2 mil gauge provides a protective barrier against dust, moisture, and handling abrasion without adding visible bulk around the print edges. Tuck a backing board behind the print before bagging to keep the artwork flat and rigid during transit. Also well-suited for folded sweaters, knit tops, and other large garments. FDA and USDA compliant for food contact use. 1000 bags per carton.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is a 16x20 bag the right size for a standard 16x20 print?
- Yes — a 16×20 print typically measures exactly 16 by 20 inches, giving you a snug fit with minimal extra room. If you are bagging the print with a backing board of the same size, the bag will be a tight but functional fit. For prints with a mat or stiff backing that adds thickness, the same size bag still works as long as the material compresses slightly at the opening when sealing.
- How should prints be packaged to prevent damage?
- Place a rigid backing board (same size as the print) behind the art before sliding it into the bag. For valuable or sale prints, place tissue or glassine face-side first to prevent any adhesion. Seal the top with tape or heat seal to keep the bag closed during stacking and transit.
- Can these bags be used for garments?
- Yes — the 16×20 format accommodates folded sweaters, turtlenecks, fleece knit tops, and similar medium-to-large garments. The FDA/USDA compliant material is also suitable for direct food contact applications.
