250G Polythene Bags
Clear Poly Bags (Paper Wrapped) — 4 x 7.75 in (approx. 102 x 197mm), 64µ
These clear polythene bags are a practical, everyday packaging option when you need a neat, transparent bag for protecting, presenting, and organising products. Supplied paper wrapped for tidy storage and easy handling, they’re ideal for busy packing benches where you want bags that dispense cleanly and stay protected from dust while in storage. The clear film helps you identify contents at a glance, making them a popular choice for retail, eCommerce fulfilment, workshops, and general stockroom use.
Designed as a medium-duty clear poly bag, this line is commonly referenced as “250g / 250 gauge” in trade listings, which is typically around the 62.5–64 micron range. That thickness offers a good balance between flexibility and strength for many light-to-medium weight items, helping reduce tearing compared with thinner films while still keeping packs compact and easy to store.

Clear Poly Bags (Paper Wrapped) — Full Product Guide
Choosing the right poly bag is mostly about matching the bag size and film thickness to your product and packing process. This guide explains what the key specifications mean, how to select the best option for your application, and how to get the most from paper wrapped packs in day-to-day use.
How It Works
These are flat, clear polythene bags supplied in paper wrapped packs. You place your item inside the bag to protect it from dust and handling, and to keep multiple items together. The clear film allows instant visual confirmation of contents, which can speed up picking and packing and reduce errors in fulfilment environments.
Materials and Construction
Polythene film
Clear poly bags are typically made from polyethylene film. The film is flexible, lightweight, and resistant to moisture, making it a dependable choice for general-purpose packaging and storage.
Film thickness (64µ)
Micron (µ) is a measurement of thickness. A 64 micron film is commonly considered a medium-duty option—thicker than lightweight bags used for very small or low-risk items, but still easy to handle and fold. Many suppliers also describe similar thickness as “250 gauge / 250g” in trade shorthand; this is widely referenced as approximately 62.5–64 micron.
Paper wrapped packs
Paper wrapping helps keep the pack clean and controlled. In busy environments, paper wrapped packs can reduce the chance of bags becoming crumpled or contaminated while stored on shelves or at packing stations.
Choosing the Right Size (Practical Fit Guidance)
When selecting a poly bag, allow extra room for the product to slide in easily and for any thickness or irregular shapes. As a general rule, measure your item’s width and length, then choose a bag that provides comfortable clearance. If you’re packing multiple items together, consider the combined thickness and whether you need additional space for labels or paperwork.
Tip: If your product has sharp corners or edges, consider whether a heavier-duty film or additional protective wrap is needed to reduce puncture risk.
Floor Type Compatibility (Packing Bench & Warehouse Use)
These bags are well suited to:
Packing benches where operators need quick access to clean, flat bags.
Warehouse picking areas where clear visibility supports fast identification.
Retail back-of-house where tidy storage and quick dispensing are important.
Health and Safety
As with all plastic bags, keep away from babies and children to avoid suffocation risk. In workplace settings, ensure loose bags and packaging waste are managed to reduce slip/trip hazards and to keep packing areas tidy. 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
Retail presentation
Clear bags help keep products clean while still allowing customers or staff to see the item. They’re useful for small goods, accessories, and components where visibility matters.
eCommerce fulfilment
Use clear poly bags to group items within a parcel, protect surfaces from scuffs, and keep multi-part orders organised. They can also help separate items that might rub together in transit.
Parts and components storage
In workshops and stores, clear bags are a simple way to keep fixings, spares, and small components together. Visibility reduces time spent searching and helps with stock checks.
Document and kit organisation
Ideal for keeping instruction sheets, small kits, or sets together—especially where you want to see at a glance whether all parts are present.
Maintenance, Cleaning and Care
Poly bags are typically used as a consumable packaging item. Store packs in a clean, dry area away from direct heat and sunlight to help maintain film performance. Keep paper wrapped packs intact until needed to reduce dust contamination and to keep bags flat and easy to separate.
Case Study (Example Workflow)
Scenario: A small eCommerce operation ships multiple small components per order.
Challenge: Prevent parts from mixing and speed up packing accuracy.
Approach: Each component set is grouped into a clear poly bag, allowing the packer to visually confirm contents before placing into the outer mailer/carton. Paper wrapped packs are stored at the packing bench to keep bags tidy and ready to use.
Result: Faster picking checks, fewer packing errors, and improved presentation on arrival.
