Custom plastic packaging bags are one of the most flexible formats in retail and ecommerce — from flat merchandise bags to printed pouches with hang holes for planograms. For a full format overview, see custom plastic packaging types; compare plastic to cartons in plastic packaging vs paperboard.
Bag styles and closures
- Flat bags with heat seal or header card hang hole
- Gusseted bags for volume and stand-up shelf presence
- Zipper pouches for reclosable consumer use
All are available under custom plastic packaging with logo and full-color print.
Print and branding
Custom plastic packaging bags can include exterior graphics, nutrition or ingredient panels, and barcode zones. Provide vector artwork and panel dimensions early to avoid proof delays.
Gauge and durability
Film thickness (mil) affects puncture resistance and hand feel. Heavier products and sharp corners need higher gauge or reinforced seals — share product details when quoting.
Retail vs ecommerce bags
Retail bags may need hang holes and shelf-ready graphics. Ecommerce bags might prioritize tear notches and batch codes. Spec both if you sell omnichannel. New to plastic specs? Follow how to spec custom plastic packaging before your first production run.
