The Many Faces of Plastic Bag

Each time, coming to the store, we hear a hackneyed phrase: "Do you need a package?" Do not be angry with sellers who simply follow the instructions, politely enough to refuse. Oddly enough, the tradition of offering a package upon purchase originated in Russia back in Soviet times, when they were not only separate but also very expensive goods. Then a plastic bag could even be presented for a birthday, and no one would be offended. On the contrary, the new owner of the product would be happy, to say the least. But times have changed, the iron curtain has risen and now no one is surprised at the multi-colored plastic bags that can be thrown out as unnecessary.

The first to pack goods began large stores. It is most convenient to pack the goods in polyethylene, where it will not only be protected from external thermal influences, but also from physical influences, in addition, polyethylene will protect the goods from scratches and mitigate possible shocks. Typically, packages are used for personal needs of customers, but there are gift series, as well as series for mass packaging of goods and "branded" packages with a logo or any other company symbols. If packaging is needed for a large number of goods or something else, then it is better order plastic bags at the factory . Despite the high cost of small batches, batches of more than a certain number of units of packages will cost quite cheaply at the cost of each unit. When ordering a large batch of goods, you can not just purchase packages with an existing drawing, but also ask to print your own. Usually these are batches starting from 500 copies. Small production halls can take up a smaller number.

No less convenient are bags-shirts, which are also made of polyethylene, but have a simplified shape, somewhat reminiscent of a man's undershirt. They have a finer structure than packaging bags that resemble sheets of paper in shape, but at the same time, are more versatile. They can be used both for carrying purchased goods, and for your personal purposes. On these packages, you can also make a drawing with the symbols of the organization. This is done using special printing devices. Very common printing of t-shirt packages in Moscow and near Moscow region. In addition, a large part of the shops is located in large cities, since from there the delivery of the printed lot to the customer’s location is much faster. Some companies over time create a network that allows you to work in several cities at the same time.
