Material Notes

LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) at 3 mil balances flexibility with structural integrity for larger, heavier contents. Virgin resin formulation meets FDA and USDA specifications. The slider track is manufactured to consistent tolerances for reliable seal performance across the full carton.

Use Case Notes

The 16×12 format (landscape orientation) accommodates flat document packets, multi-component medical kits, and wide specimen bags that require a secure reclosable seal. The slider mechanism is particularly effective in high-throughput environments where speed of closure matters, such as clinical lab intake or evidence processing.

Common Questions

How does a slider-top bag differ from a press-to-close zipper bag?
A slider-top bag uses a mechanical slider that runs along the zipper track, opening and closing the seal in one motion. It is easier to operate with gloves or one hand than a standard press-to-close zipper, which requires finger pressure along the entire seal.

Are these resealable after initial opening?
Yes. The slider closure is designed for repeated opening and resealing under normal use conditions.

Are these FDA compliant?
Yes. Manufactured from virgin LDPE resin meeting FDA and USDA specifications for incidental food contact.

Why Buy

The combination of a 16×12 landscape format, 3 mil durability, and slider-top closure makes this bag suitable for demanding kitting and specimen-handling environments. At 250 bags per carton, it supports consistent throughput in lab, medical, and industrial settings where reliable reclosable packaging is essential.
