WET-PACK BAGS

Wet-Pack & Cold Insulating Plastic Bags

Solutions for Local Markets, Grocery Chains & Food Service Providers

Reputable grocers, specialty markets and takeout operations are concerned about more than food quality. To support safe, healthy food packaging and transport, PackageIt carries specialty plastic wet- and cold-pack bags. These condensation-proof bags isolate cold or hot products, contain moisture and minimize leaking.

 

With the easy-to-use wet pack dispenser placed around the meat etc- took out the word PackageIt ‘s easy use (the product is a patent dispenser from Elkay plastics- don’t want to imply we designed the wire rack).


Wet bags also include these features and advantages:

 

  • Sizes that correspond with paper or reusable bag sizes
  • Range of bag thicknesses (0.25 to 0.6 mil gauges)
  • Gusseted hot-cold grocery bag styles that stand open during filling
  • Flat bottom & sides that expand for larger items
  • Custom range of designs: printed logos, safety info, branding & more


Insulated and wet-pack bag products are also perfect for carryout operations. Beyond food carryout safety, meal presentation and quality packaging are essential to customer satisfaction. According to a WestRock Pulse Packaging Survey, 83 percent of consumers reported that breakage and spill protection in takeout packaging was “very” or “extremely important.” An additional 67 percent of consumers said they’d be “delighted” if restaurants would resolve the issue of unsightly grease and oil stains on food packaging.

 

Plastic, gusseted cold bags for groceries are well-suited for takeout businesses since they temporarily contain moisture and protect dry foods like French fries, potato chips, sandwich bread and other items. Shoppers place cold or wet plastic bags inside single-use or reusable bags to address concerns like these:

 

  • Separating cold & hot items
  • Insulating hot food to maintain temperature
  • Minimizing soggy food caused by trapped condensation
  • Reducing damage to dry goods
  • Creating a high-quality food presentation
