Material Notes
LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) at 1 mil is a display-grade film providing excellent clarity for product visibility through the bag. 100% virgin resin eliminates contamination risk relevant for food, botanical, and cosmetic applications. FDA compliant for incidental food contact. At 1 mil, this film is designed for lightweight products without sharp edges or significant handling stress.
Use Case Notes
The 5x8 format is one of the most common sizes in wholesale seed, craft, and small retail distribution. Seed packets typically range from 3x4" to 4x6", fitting cleanly inside the 5x8 bag with room for a display label or insert. Cosmetic trial-size tubes and sample packets also fit within this footprint. At 1 mil, the bag is not suited for heavy or pointed objects — use 2 or 3 mil for items with sharp corners or metal components.
Common Questions
Are these safe for food and botanical products? Yes. These bags are FDA compliant for incidental contact with dry food, botanical, and agricultural products. For direct seed or herb contact, verify with your compliance team based on your specific application.
What does 1 mil mean for this size bag? At 1 mil, these bags provide maximum clarity and minimal material weight. They are suitable for display and light-duty protection, not for heavy products, sharp objects, or rough handling environments. For those applications, 2 or 3 mil in the same size range is more appropriate.
Can these be heat sealed? Yes. Compatible with standard impulse bar sealers. Can also be closed with tape, staples, or a twist tie depending on application.
