How to choose the right Food Bags
- Start by matching bag size and gusset depth to your typical orders, from single sandwiches to full takeaway meals or grocery top-ups.
- Decide between plastic, kraft paper or fully compostable materials based on your sustainability goals and local waste facilities.
- Choose handle styles such as flat or twist handles for heavier loads, and simple lunch bags for lighter items.
- For hot food, look for foil-lined or glassine hot food bags that help retain heat and resist grease.
- Consider windowed sandwich bags if you rely on visual merchandising in chilled displays or countertop grab-and-go units.
- Check pack sizes and storage space so you can buy in bulk for busy sites without overfilling your stockroom.
Care and maintenance
- Store food bags in a clean, dry area away from moisture, grease and direct sunlight to prevent weakening or discolouration.
- Keep cartons sealed until needed to protect bags from dust and kitchen contaminants.
- Rotate stock using a first-in, first-out system so older packaging is used before newer deliveries.
- Avoid overloading bags beyond their intended weight to prevent tearing and potential spills.
- Train staff on correct bag selection for hot, cold and greasy foods to maintain hygiene and customer safety.
- Dispose of or recycle compostable and paper bags according to local waste and recycling guidelines.
Pair your food bags with matching food boxes, trays, pots and labelling solutions to create a complete, efficient takeaway and retail packaging system.
