120G Polythene Bags
Clear Poly Bags (Paper Wrapped) — Product Overview
These clear polythene bags are designed for straightforward, protective packing where visibility of the contents matters. Supplied paper wrapped, they’re a practical choice for busy packing benches that need clean, easy-to-handle packs of bags for day-to-day dispatch, storage, and product protection.
Made from clear polythene film at 30 micron (30µm) thickness (often referenced as 120 gauge), these bags provide a dependable barrier against dust and light handling marks while keeping the contents clearly identifiable—ideal for stock control, picking, and presentation.
Key Features
Clear visibility:
Transparent film helps you identify contents quickly without opening the bag—useful for picking, inventory checks, and reducing packing errors.
30µm / 120g film thickness:
A versatile thickness for general-purpose protection, offering a balance between flexibility and durability for everyday packing tasks.
Paper wrapped packs:
Paper-wrapped packaging helps keep bags tidy and easier to store on shelves or at packing stations, supporting cleaner handling in busy environments.
Large-format bag option:
Suitable for covering and protecting larger items, grouped components, or bulky products where smaller bags aren’t practical.
Multi-purpose protection:
Helps protect goods from dust, light scuffs, and moisture exposure during storage and internal handling (not a substitute for fully waterproof or long-term outdoor protection).

Clear Poly Bags (Paper Wrapped) — Full Product Guide
Clear poly bags are a staple packaging solution across warehouses, workshops, retail backrooms, and fulfilment operations. They provide a simple way to keep products clean, grouped, and easy to identify. This listing covers clear polythene bags supplied paper wrapped, made from 30µm (120 gauge) film—an everyday thickness that suits a wide range of packing and storage tasks.
How It Works
The bag forms a protective sleeve around your product. Once the item is placed inside, the film acts as a barrier against dust and light surface contamination. Because the film is clear, the contents remain visible for quick identification, scanning, and quality checks.
Depending on your packing process, these bags can be used as an inner protective layer inside cartons, as a standalone protective cover for storage, or as part of a kitting workflow where multiple components are grouped together.
Materials and Construction
These bags are made from clear polythene film at 30µm thickness (commonly referred to as 120 gauge). This thickness is widely used for general packaging because it offers:
- Flexibility to conform around products without excessive stiffness
- Practical strength for routine handling and storage
- Good clarity for presentation and identification
Paper wrapped supply format helps keep packs neat and reduces loose bag movement during storage and handling.
Product Clarity and Presentation
Clear packaging supports a cleaner presentation and faster workflows. In many operations, the ability to see the product without opening the bag reduces rework and helps prevent mix-ups—especially where similar items are stored together.
If you’re using labels, barcodes, or packing slips, clear film also makes it easier to position and read labels consistently.
Thickness Guide: What 30µm (120 Gauge) Means in Practice
Film thickness is one of the most important factors when choosing a poly bag. At 30µm (120 gauge), the film is typically suited to:
- General-purpose protection for non-sharp items
- Grouping parts and assemblies
- Keeping products clean during storage and internal transport
If you are packing items with sharp corners, heavy metal components, or products that may puncture thin film, you may need a heavier-duty thickness. For lightweight goods, 30µm is often a reliable everyday choice.
Floor Type Compatibility
Poly bags are used across many environments rather than being tied to a specific floor type. In practice, they work well in:
- Warehouse floors (concrete, sealed concrete, epoxy) where goods are picked and packed
- Retail backrooms where items are stored and replenished
- Workshops where components need to be kept clean between process steps
For best results, store packs away from excessive dust and avoid dragging bags across rough surfaces that could scuff or puncture the film.
Health and Safety
As with all plastic bags, safe handling and storage are important:
- Suffocation risk: Keep plastic bags away from babies and children.
- Workplace safety: Keep packing areas tidy to reduce slip/trip hazards from loose packaging.
- Product suitability: Avoid using thin film for sharp or pointed items unless you have confirmed it is appropriate for your application.
If you are packaging food, medical items, or products with specific compliance requirements, confirm suitability for your intended use and any relevant regulations before use.
Ideal Applications and Use Cases
These clear poly bags are commonly used for:
- Storage protection: Keeping items clean on shelves, pallets, or in bins.
- Kitting and assembly: Grouping multiple components into one pack for faster picking.
- Dispatch preparation: Protecting goods inside cartons to reduce dust and scuffing.
- Presentation: Clear packaging for products where visibility supports customer confidence or internal QA.
Maintenance, Cleaning and Care
Poly bags are typically single-use packaging, but good storage practices help maintain performance:
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Keep packs sealed or wrapped until needed to reduce dust contamination.
- Avoid compressing packs under heavy loads which can crease or distort the film.
For packing benches, consider keeping a pack in a clean dispenser area to reduce handling time and keep bags tidy.
Case Study (Example Workflow)
Scenario: A warehouse ships mixed orders containing large, lightweight items that must remain clean and easy to identify.
Approach: Items are placed into clear poly bags at the picking stage. Because the contents remain visible, the packing team can verify the correct item quickly before boxing. The bag provides a clean barrier inside the carton, reducing dust and light scuffing during handling.
Result: Faster verification, fewer picking errors, and improved presentation on arrival.
Who Is It For?
- Warehouses and fulfilment centres needing clear, general-purpose protective bags
- Manufacturers and workshops grouping parts or assemblies
