Common Questions
Q: What does "side gusseted" mean and why does it matter?
A: Side gussets are expandable pleats on each side of the bag that let it open wide to fit bulkier items. When your product is inside, the bag expands to accommodate it. When empty, the bags lay perfectly flat for efficient storage. This 8x4x18 bag expands to 4 inches deep when opened.
Q: Can I use these bags for food at my farmers market?
A: Yes! These bags are made from virgin polyethylene that's FDA food-contact compliant. They're great for bread, baked goods, and other food items. Many of our customers use them for artisan bread loaves and baguettes.
Q: How should I close these bags?
A: These bags work beautifully with twist ties, ribbon, or heat sealing. For a quick farmers market setup, twist ties are fastest. For a more polished gift presentation, consider decorative ribbon or raffia.
