What Material Should I Choose for Custom Poly Bags?

The right material for a custom poly bag depends on what you are packaging, how the bag will be used, and the conditions it may encounter during filling, storage, display, or shipping. Different materials can provide different levels of flexibility, strength, appearance, and protection.

We manufacture custom flexible packaging using materials such as low density polyethylene, high density polyethylene, coextruded polyethylene, biodegradable LDPE, and polypropylene. The appropriate option depends on your product and packaging requirements.

When choosing a material, consider the weight and shape of the contents, whether the bag needs to be clear or opaque, how it will be sealed, and whether it requires printing or special features. Products being shipped may have different requirements than bags used for retail merchandise, industrial parts, samples, events, or promotional materials.

If you are unsure which material is appropriate, tell us what the bag will hold and how it will be used. Our team can review your application and help you compare material options before you place an order.
