SOS White Plastic Bags – Small (250 pcs)

1. Product overview of SOS White Plastic Bags – Small

The Lumapack SOS White Plastic Bag – Small is a durable, flat-base plastic carry bag designed for retail and foodservice carry operations. With a height of 230 mm, a top width of 180 mm, and a 90 mm gusset, the small format provides sufficient capacity for lighter purchases while maintaining a compact and manageable footprint at the service counter or till point.

The SOS (self-opening satchet) format is an industry-standard bag design distinguished by its flat, block base, which allows the bag to stand upright independently when filled. This makes it straightforward to fill quickly at the point of sale and gives a neat, uniform appearance when presented to customers. The white finish provides a clean, professional look suited to a wide range of retail and takeaway settings.

The bag is manufactured from durable plastic construction, providing reliable load-bearing capacity for lighter items. The flat base and open-top design support fast, efficient packing in high-throughput counter environments. Lumapack supplies this product in cases of 250 pieces. Related sizes – Medium and Large – are available separately within the SOS White Plastic Bags range.
