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?
Type 1:
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.

Type 2:
Similar to type 1 but preferred by garden centres and other plant retailers as the slightly wider dimension of this bag accommodates multipack bedding plant trays. Also popular with electrical and shoe retailers.

Type 3:
This is the strongest type of our large white vest carriers. It's strength and quality feel is preferred by retailers who require a reliable bag that won't tear easily. Typically used for frozen foods, meat on the bone, bottled goods and bulky books.
What do the dimensions mean?
Let's take Type 1 as an example: 304mm x 457mm x 609mm (12in x 18in x 24in) means:
  • the bag width is 304mm (12in) but expands outwards to 457mm (18in) when the gusset is fully opened
  • the bag length is 609mm (24in)
Still confused? Take a look at the diagram below:
  • A = 304mm (12in)
  • B = 457mm (18in)
  • C = 609mm (24in)
