SOS White Plastic Bags – Medium (250 pcs)

1. Product overview of SOS White Plastic Bags – Medium

The Lumapack SOS White Plastic Bag – Medium is a practical, durable carry solution designed for retail, foodservice, and café environments. Using the SOS (self-opening satchet) format, these bags feature a flat base construction that allows them to stand upright when filled, making them straightforward and efficient for counter-top packing and point-of-sale use.

With a height of 260 mm, a top width of 220 mm, and a 110 mm gusset, the medium format provides sufficient capacity for takeaway food orders, bakery items, and general retail goods – occupying a practical middle ground between the Small and Large SOS formats in the Lumapack plastic carrier bag range.

3. Operational benefits of SOS White Plastic Bags – Medium for cafés and retail

• Self-opening satchet format for fast counter use: The SOS design allows the bag to be opened quickly with a single motion, making it efficient for busy counter staff handling high-volume transactions. The flat base holds its shape when open, allowing hands-free filling without the bag collapsing during packing.
• Flat base construction for upright stability: The base gusset allows the bag to stand independently when filled. This is particularly useful at counters where bags are pre-packed or assembled before handover, reducing handling time and maintaining a tidy service area.
• Durable plastic construction for reliable carry: Made from durable plastic material, the medium format provides reliable load-bearing capacity for mid-size orders and retail carry requirements. The construction is suited to everyday high-volume use across café, takeaway, and retail environments.
• Clean white finish for a consistent counter presentation: The plain white finish provides a neutral, professional appearance across counter and service environments. The white surface is also compatible with custom branding if required.
• Consistent sizing within the SOS White range: The medium format is part of a three-size SOS White range (Small, Medium, Large), allowing operators to standardise their plastic carry bag format across different order sizes and departments.
