AB Group launches PEFC reusable ‘heavyweight’ paper bag

GreenPrint

Leading multinational paper bag manufacturer AB Group Packaging has launched a reusable ‘heavyweight’ paper bag, which is PEFC certified, 100% recyclable and has the ultra strong quality of being able to carry up to 37 lbs in weight.

The paper used to make the bags is more durable, than standard papers as well as being both water and tear resistant. The super strong paper bags are constructed with large side gussets, which allow the bag to sit upright and open easily for fast, easy packing. With its cleverly concealed handles, the bag also has the capability to fold neatly, allowing it to be stored for reuse. The bags have soft hold handles, can be supplied with a coloured handle option, and are available in custom sizes with custom branding options.

Commenting on this new addition to the company’s extensive range, AB Group Packaging’s managing director Dermot Brady said: ‘Companies offering these bags to customers in store can be assured that they are choosing a responsibly sourced, renewable paper alternative choice to thicker plastic bags. Our heavyweight bags are reusable, recyclable, compostable and biodegradable – a great environmental choice which ticks all the boxes for the eco minded customer.’

Today, more and more companies from SMEs to global brands are keen to demonstrate that the fibre they use in their packaging materials comes from certified sustainable sources. This matters as consumers are increasingly conscious of how their purchasing decisions impact on the world’s precious natural resources.
