Heavy-duty polythene bags

Our thickest and most durable offering in polythene bags, designed to handle demanding application whilst maintaining excellent clarity for displaying contents. Heavy-duty and extra heavy-duty options available for industrial and commercial use.

Produced from high-quality, non-toxic LDPE (low density polyethylene). These bags contain 30% recycled material, providing a sustainable yet robust packaging solution.

Designed with three sealed sides and open top, they are easy to fill and can sealed securely with a heat sealer. This creates a near-impenetrable closure that reliably protects against contamination from dirt, dust, or moisture, making them ideal for storing or mailing objects.

Whether you need them for storage, shipping, or retail purposes, these heavy-duty polythene bags are built to provide exceptional strength, clarity, and protection.

These bags are food safe.

360-gauge thick (90 micron) bags offering exceptional strength and tear resistance, making them ideal for heavy and sharp items.

Perfect for DIY stores, ironmongers, garden centres and builders merchants, with the larger varieties suiting bulk shipments and substantial materials.

Used in conjunction with a heat sealer, the contents would be securely shielded from contaminants to keep the goods in optimal condition in terms of hygiene and sanitation.

  • Metal parts, tools and machine components requiring strong, tear-resistant packaging

They can also be used as protective covers to shield sensitive items from dust or moisture during storage and transit.

500-gauge thick (125 micron) bags offering an incredible degree of toughness.

Extremely strong, clear plastic bags are ideal for storing, transporting or protecting heavier, bulkier or sharper goods that may otherwise split less robust, thinner bags.

Great for satisfying warehouse needs, office goods or carrying engineering parts. The significantly superior strength can accommodate far more substantial items.

Great for storing and transporting:

  • Construction materials, such as gravel, sand, cement, or other dense materials
