Plastic Poly Bags are Reusable

Darren Kincaid - Thursday, November 26, 2009

Plastic poly bags have many uses and as we all know they are usually used over and over again.  Whenever we purchase something at a store, more often than not we take our items home in a poly bag. We then reuse these bags to transport something else or  to temporarily store items.

We find these bags are used everywhere including in kid's local sports leagues.  Hats and jerseys are distributed to each team in some form of a plastic bag. As I coach I reuse these bags for other things and hardly ever throw them away.  It's amazing how many uses these are for poly bags but equally impressive is how many times we reuse the bags. 

They are convenient, durable and safe for the environment.


Uses for Polyethylene Bags are endless

The uses and markets for polyethylene or poly bags are virtually endless.  Whenever you need to protect an item during storage or shipment, Atlantic Poly can supply a poly bag that is right for the job. Lighter density poly bags are a good choice for items that are not heavy and require only a basic shield from their nearby environmental surroundings. Heavy density poly bags keep your goods safe from harm in more abusive environments where dirt, dust, moisture, and motion could damage your goods.

Printed Poly Bags Are Good For Marketing

Atlantic Poly’s printed poly bags are very affordable and effective in terms of marketing for its customers. These items can be made from any density film, which allows using them in various ways. There are two common types of materials used for these packages, namely: polyethylene LDPE and HDPE.

The most common of printed bags are the T-shirt bags. The practical handles allow the T-shirt bags to withstand considerable weight, while their side folds help them achieve substantial capacity. Plastic T-shirt bags are widely used in supermarkets and other commercial outlets. The low cost of these bags permit offering them free of charge to customers. Favorable prices make these bags an attractive target for advertising such as trademarks, logos, and contacts. In addition to advertising, they have a good branding value - according to studies; printed poly bags with logos increase the commitment to the brand. Contrary to popular belief, T-shirt bags are not single-use. According to statistics, they are used 2-4 times on average, depending on their size and strength. They can be made of HDPE or LDPE. You can choose the size and shape of the packages, and the color of the film. Atlantic Poly ensures that these bags can be made for you in the shortest possible time.
