Bags & Packaging

Looking for bags and packaging supplies? We stock a great range of plastic carrier bags, poly bags, paper carrier bags, strung paper bags and other packaging and sealing solutions to suit almost any retail requirement.

Whether you wrap or bag your products, whether you need sealable or open bags, film fronted, transparent or opaque bags for lightweight or heavy products, whether you sell fruit and veg, meat, greetings cards, jewellery, cosmetics, fashion, toys, sweets, pet food, flowers, electronics, kitchenware, tools or hardware, we have a solution for you! And if you're not sure what you need, then we have the knowledge and expertise to advise.

Like any sensible retailer, we're very aware of the impact that plastic bags can have on the environment and, as such, stock several recycled plastic bag and biodegradable carrier bag products as well as more environmentally friendly paper carrier bag and strung paper bag alternatives. In relation to this, we also recommend that our customers take a look at our buyer guide page regarding the situation with carrier bag tax laws within the UK, Ireland and further afield and how they may already affect you.

    Size279mm x 432mm x 533mm
    (11in x 17in x 21in)
    305mm x 483cm x 533mm

    Thickness16 micron
    (64 gauge)

    Approximately 10% thinner than a typical supermarket carrier.
    18 micron
    (72 gauge)
    What does it look and feel like?
    Like a supermarket carrier, this is a vest carrier bag which refers to the vest shaped appearance of the bag. It's manufactured from a high density polythene which means it's scrunchy and thin to touch, just like a supermarket carrier. And just like a supermarket carrier, these bags are primarily designed for function over form. It's rare that you would find this type of bag in high end boutiques but you'll be sure to find them in the vast majority of high street stores.
    What's it used for?
    Typically used for footwear, selected clothing lines (knitwear for example), plants, DIY goods (hardware, tools and paint), electrical goods, car parts and accessories, books and pet food.
    What do the dimensions mean?
    279mm x 432mm x 533mm (11in x 17in x 21in) means:
    • the bag width is 279mm (11in) but expands outwards to 432mm (17in) when the gusset is fully opened
    • the bag length is 533mm (21in)
    Still confused? Take a look at the diagram below:
    • A = 279mm (11in)
    • B = 432mm (17in)
    • C = 533mm (21in)
