    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.

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?
    This is one of our most versatile vest carrier bags and has a huge variety of uses. Perfect for food (fruit and veg, meat), towels and bedding, fashion (jackets, jeans, knitwear, hats, handbags), shoes, haberdashery (wool, fabrics), tools, pet food, books and bedding plants.

    330mm x 483mm x 584mm (13in x 19in x 23in) means:
    • the bag width is 330mm (13in) but expands outwards to 483mm (19in) when the gusset is fully opened
    • the bag length is 584mm (23in)

    Approximately 40% thicker than a typical supermarket carrier.
    What does it look and feel like?
    Patch handle carrier bags combine good looks with quality and strength and are generally considered a step up from your average "vest" type supermarket carrier which favours function over form. This patch handle carrier is manufactured from a low density polythene which means it feels smooth and thick to touch when compared with a supermarket carrier. Low density polythene also lacks the noisy scrunch that is often associated with cheaper, lower quality carrier bags like supermarket carriers. As such, you'll find patch handle carrier bags are popular with retailers who want to suggest an air of quality about their products.
    What's it used for?
    Standard:
    A general purpose, good quality carrier bag, popular with fashion retailers and those selling quality product lines. Typically use for packaging skirts, shirts, trousers, knitwear and hats as well as toys and quality household goods.

    Fashion:
    As the name suggests, owing to its wider dimension, this bag is particularly popular with fashion retailers and is ideal for suits, jackets and other bulky fashion lines. It's also frequently used for towels and bedding as well as numerous other bulky products where width is required.
    What do the dimensions mean?
    Let's take the the Standard bag as an example, 380mm x 450mm + 75mm (15in x 18in + 3in) means:
    • the bag width is 380mm (15in)
    • the bag length is 450mm (18in)
    • the bag has a bottom gusset of 75mm (3in)
    Still confused? Take a look at the diagram below:
    • A = 380mm (15in)
    • B = 450mm (18in)
    • C = 75mm (3in)
