Recycle Logo Bags

Sizes and Variations

Recycle logo reclosable bags are stocked in more than 300 sizes and ready for immediate shipment, so you can match the bag to the product instead of forcing the product into the bag. The line runs from tiny parts sizes through larger display and shipping formats, including popular stocked sizes such as:

• 1.5×2, 2×2, and 2×3 – for findings, fasteners, beads, pills, and small components
• 3×3, 3×4, 3×5, and 4×4 – for jewelry, hardware, and retail samples
• 2×8, 4×6, 5×8, and 6×9 – for cables, accessories, apparel parts, and kitted items
• 4×4 with a divider in the middle – a split-compartment bag that keeps two items, or a part and its paperwork, separated in a single pouch

Need a footprint that is not stocked? Custom sizes are available upon request, and you can also order custom printing if you want your own branding in addition to the standard recycle logo.

Material and Thickness

These bags are sold as 2 mil poly bags made of virgin polyethylene film that meets FDA and USDA requirements, so they are suitable for packaging food and pharmaceutical items as well as general retail goods. A mil is one-thousandth of an inch, and the 2 mil gauge is the practical all-purpose wall thickness for reclosable bags: heavy enough to resist routine punctures and tearing during handling and shipping, yet light enough to stay economical in high counts. The recycle logo is printed directly onto the front panel in black ink, while the rest of the film stays clear so pickers and customers can see the contents at a glance.

Use-Cases by Industry

Because the printed recycle logo satisfies the packaging and shipping guidelines that many major retailers and department stores require, these bags are popular across a wide range of channels:

• E-commerce and marketplace sellers who need recycle-marked packaging to stay aligned with retailer guidelines
• Retail and department-store suppliers packaging individual SKUs for the shelf
• Jewelry, craft, and hobby businesses bagging small finished goods and supplies
• Hardware, electronics, and manufacturing operations bagging parts, fasteners, and components
• Food and pharmacy operations that need FDA- and USDA-compliant film

How to Choose the Right Bag

Start with the product’s footprint and pick a size that leaves a little headroom above the contents so the zipper seals cleanly. For small, lightweight items the stocked sizes from 1.5×2 up to about 4×4 are ideal; for bundled, kitted, or larger goods, step up to 4×6, 5×8, or 6×9. If you need to keep two pieces apart – a product and an instruction card, or a matched pair – the 4×4 with a divider in the middle handles it in a single bag. If your packaging needs go beyond the recycle mark, compare related lines: our clear reclosable poly bags cover plain zip-top options, our 2 mil clear reclosable bags offer the same gauge without printing, and our white block reclosable bags add a writable panel for labeling. Sellers shipping to consumer marketplaces should also look at our suffocation warning reclosable bags, which carry the required warning text.
