What are flat poly bags? Flat poly bags are open-ended polyethylene bags with no gussets or expansion, designed for packaging items that lay flat or have minimal depth. They're the most economical style of poly bag and suitable for a wide range of applications from food packaging to industrial parts. What mil thickness do I need for bakery packaging? 3 mil bags work well for most bakery items including cookies, brownies, muffins, and pastries. This thickness provides enough puncture resistance for items with moderate texture while maintaining good clarity and flexibility for easy handling. Can these bags be heat sealed? Yes, LDPE flat poly bags seal reliably with impulse heat sealers, creating an airtight closure that extends freshness for food products. They can also be secured with twist ties, bag tape, or staples depending on your application needs.
