What are flat poly bags? Flat poly bags are simple, open-top polyethylene bags with a sealed bottom or side, designed for general-purpose packaging, product protection, and bundling. They're the most economical and versatile bag style for shipping and retail use. What mil thickness do I need for bakery packaging? 3 mil poly bags are ideal for most bakery applications including bread, rolls, and pastries. The thickness provides adequate protection without adding unnecessary cost, while maintaining the flexibility needed for easy handling and sealing. Can these bags be heat sealed? Yes, LDPE poly bags heat seal effectively using impulse sealers, constant heat sealers, or handheld heat guns. Heat sealing creates an airtight closure that helps maintain product freshness for bakery items and provides tamper-evident protection for retail products.
