Who uses compostable garment bags

Garment bags are used in apparel manufacturing and export, by dry cleaners and laundries, in bridal and formalwear stores, and by uniform and workwear suppliers. They protect clothing from dust and snags in transit and storage.

The film is breathable, so it does not trap moisture, and clear or frosted for easy identification. Hanger-hole and gusset options are available.

Sizes and thickness

SpecificationRange
SizesShirt, suit, and gown lengths
Thickness15 – 25 microns

Sizes cover shirt, suit and gown lengths. Send the garment length and width, including any gusset you need for bulk, when you request a quote. Bags are supplied on a roll or pre-cut with a hanger hole.

How to choose the right thickness

Garment bags are made in 15 to 25 microns. Shirts and light garments suit the lower end. Suits, gowns and garments that are stored for longer suit the higher end, because the film has to resist snags and handling. Choose clear for fast identification or frosted for a discreet look.

Disposal and storage

Used bags should go to industrial composting where it is available and should not go into plastic recycling. Our specification states that the bag returns to soil within 240 days in industrial composting. Store unused bags in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; shelf life is 12 months from the date of manufacture.
