Plastic Carry Bags With Soft Loop Handles - Plain

Plastic carry bags with soft loop handles are becoming a popular choice with retailers who are looking for a bag with extra carrying capacity. A very strong bag, these would be suitable for carrying large or heavy items and can be made with a reinforced cardboard base. Often seen in vibrant colours.

Soft loop carry bags are usually made with high density plastic (HDPE) for a strong bag with a matt finish. This type of plastic sounds loud and crinkly when moved, and can be used to make ‘frosted’ look bags, which have recently become fashionable. They can also be made with low density plastic (LDPE) for a glossy, soft finish that is characteristic of bags used by many clothes retailers such as Myer. Both of these types of plastic can be manufactured with an additive that will enable the plastic to be degradable, which is becoming popular with both retailers and customers. The soft loop handle is a separate piece of plastic (the same plastic that is used to make the bag) that is ‘welded’ to the top of the bag to create a handle.

These bags can be manufactured in many different colours, and it may be possible to colour match to an existing sample. The minimum quantities for manufacture and printing are approximately 5 000 for Natural (clear) bags and 10 000 for coloured bags. As these bags are manufactured overseas, the lead time for printed bags is usually 12 – 14 weeks from approval of artwork.
