The Future of Flexible Packaging: Addressing the Circular Challenge
30-11-2024
A bread bag is a type of packaging bag that is specifically used to store bread and is usually made of materials such as plastic, paper, or kraft paper. The main function of bread bags is to protect the bread from moisture, spoilage, and contamination, which can help extend the shelf life of the bread and maintain the taste and freshness. There are many types of bread bags available in the market, and it is important to choose one that suits your needs. When choosing a bread bag, you can consider the following aspects:
Material: The material of the packaging bag should have the characteristics of moisture-proof, fresh-keeping, and oxygen barrier to maintain the taste and quality of the bread. Commonly used materials include plastic, aluminum foil, paper bags, etc.
Paper bags have the advantages of being environmentally friendly and recyclable, but you need to pay attention to the moisture-proof performance of paper bags. Bread packaging bags are usually made of materials such as PE or PP. PE material is soft, suitable for plastic wrap, shopping bags, etc.; PP material is hard, has good mechanical properties and high temperature properties, and is suitable for bread bags.
Thickness: Choose the right thickness according to the actual demand, generally speaking, the thicker the thicker, the higher the strength of the bag, but the cost also increases accordingly. The common thickness of bread bags is generally in between 15μm-40μm.
Size: The size of the bag should be chosen according to the shape and size of the bread to ensure that the bread can fit into the bag intact. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the size of the packaging bag should not be too large, so as not to waste materials. The more common specifications in bakeries are bread bags with a width of 8-16 cm, a length of 20-32 cm, and a thickness of 0.015-0.05 mm. This size is more suitable for average-sized bread.
Tightness: The bag should be well sealed to prevent air from entering the bag and affecting the taste and quality of the bread. If you choose a plastic bag, you need to confirm that its sealing performance is reliable. Choose bags with a good seal design to ensure product freshness.
Printing effect: If you need to customize the packaging bag, it is important to consider the printing effect of the bag. Choose clear graphics and text to ensure that they will capture the consumer’s attention in actual use. The production date, shelf life, manufacturer information and other contents should be clearly marked on the packaging bag, so that consumers can understand the details of the bread.
