LK Packaging 6 x 3-1/2 x 14 0.5 Mil Wet Pack Grocery Bag #8 – H-08

LK Packaging H-08 Wet Pack Grocery Bag #8 — 6 x 3-1/2 x 14 at 0.5 Mils

The LK Packaging H-08 is a #8 wet pack grocery bag measuring 6 inches wide by 3-1/2 inches gusset by 14 inches tall, constructed from 0.5 mil film. The extra 2-inch height compared to the #6 bag makes H-08 the standard size for bunched broccoli crowns, bunched kale, long-stem asparagus, and other produce items that require additional length for proper bagging without crushing. LK Packaging supplies H-08 in case quantities to grocery chains, produce distributors, and food retail packaging suppliers.

What Are the Specifications of the H-08 Wet Pack Grocery Bag?

The H-08 measures 6 inches wide by 3-1/2 inches gusset by 14 inches tall at 0.5 mil film thickness. The 14-inch height is the key differentiator from the #6 bag, providing the additional length needed for broccoli crowns with long stems, tall leek bunches, asparagus spears, and other elongated produce that must be inserted lengthwise into the bag. The 6-inch width and 3.5-inch gusset maintain sufficient lateral space for the thicker base portions of broccoli and cauliflower crowns.

What Produce Items Use Wet Pack #8 Bags in Grocery Departments?

The #8 wet pack bag is the standard for bunched broccoli (1-pound crowns), asparagus bundles, full-length leek bunches, rainbow Swiss chard bunches, and tall herb varieties like dill and tarragon where the frond length exceeds the capacity of the #6 bag. Specialty produce operations and farm direct distributors use H-08 for tall heirloom vegetable bunches and long-stemmed specialty herbs that exceed standard supermarket produce dimensions. Institutional food service operations use H-08 for pre-portioned large vegetable servings in cafeteria and hospital food service packaging programs.

Broccoli Crown and Long-Stem Vegetable Pre-Pack Program Standard Bag

The H-08 is the standard wet pack bag specification for grocery produce departments running broccoli pre-pack programs. A 1-pound broccoli crown with a 4–6 inch stem requires the 14-inch bag height of the H-08 to bag the crown base-first without folding or crushing the florets against the bag closure. Produce packaging distributors supply H-08 alongside H-06 and H-12 as part of complete wet pack size programs for grocery chains running pre-packed broccoli, asparagus, and leek programs that require precise bag sizing to maintain produce display quality and minimize reject rates at checkout.

How Does the H-08 Serve Long-Stem Produce That H-06 Cannot Accommodate?

The critical dimension difference between H-06 (12 inches tall) and H-08 (14 inches tall) is the 2 extra inches of bag height that separates successful from unsuccessful produce packaging for long-stem items. An asparagus bunch or full leek that measures 13 inches from root to tip cannot be bagged in the H-06 without crimping the stems at the bag opening, which damages the produce appearance and signals poor freshness to customers. The H-08 provides exactly the height buffer needed for these produce items to bag cleanly, maintaining produce quality and professional display appearance throughout the retail shelf life.
