LK® BK8516HI-DP – 8½×5×16″ High Density Printed Bakery Bag | 1 Mil | 1000/CS

LK® BK8516HI-DP – 8½×5×16″ High Density Printed Bakery Bag | 1 Mil | 1000/CS

The LK® BK8516HI-DP is an 8½×5×16″ gusseted high density polyethylene bakery bag printed with a bold “Bakery” graphic. Constructed from 1 mil HDPE film, this large-format gusseted bag features a generous 5″ side gusset and 16″ length for packaging whole bread loaves, multi-pack pastry assortments, and large bakery items. Each case contains 1,000 bags for high-volume grocery bakeries, wholesale bread operations, and supermarket deli departments.

What baked goods and settings use 8½×5×16″ gusseted printed bakery bags?

The 8½×5×16″ large-gusset format accommodates whole sandwich loaves, round artisan boule loaves, large bundt cakes, multi-pack muffin assortments, full-size coffee cakes, stacked bagel packs, and extra-large specialty rolls. Wholesale bread distributors, supermarket in-store bakery departments, club-store bakery programs, and food service bakery operations use this size where standard-height bags don’t fully close around the product and smaller gussets don’t accommodate the full width of a round or square loaf.

1 Mil HDPE Film: Large-Gusset Strength for Heavy Whole-Loaf Products

The 1 mil HDPE film in BK8516HI-DP delivers the tensile strength required to carry whole loaves and multi-pack bakery items without tearing at the bag mouth. The 5″ gusset expands the bag to a rectangular base that supports whole round loaves upright in the bag, and the 16″ length provides closure room for large items that would otherwise require the top to be folded or taped shut. High-slip HDPE interior surfaces minimize friction damage to soft bread crust surfaces during bag loading.

Large-Gusset Format for Whole-Loaf and Multi-Pack Pastry Packaging

Grocery store in-store bakeries producing 1-lb and 1.5-lb sandwich loaves need a bag that fits the full loaf profile, closes neatly with a twist tie or tape tab, and carries the weight of a sliced loaf without splitting. BK8516HI-DP’s 8½” opening width and 5″ gusset accommodate standard 5×9″ sandwich loaf pans, while the 16″ length provides full coverage with room to gather and close at the top. The printed “Bakery” graphic replaces the need for a separate label for standard bakery loaf packaging at self-service grocery stations.
