Retail operations package calendars, magazines, catalogs, and promotional materials. Document storage facilities protect archival papers, certificates, and oversized documents. E-commerce sellers ship flat merchandise including books, vinyl records, and poster prints with lightweight protection against handling damage.
Tuf-R® LLDPE Advantage
LK Packaging's Tuf-R® bags utilize Linear Low Density Polyethylene, which provides enhanced strength and tear resistance compared to conventional LDPE. The molecular structure of LLDPE creates flexible yet durable films that resist punctures from corners and edges. This allows commercial operations to use lighter gauge Tuf-R® bags where heavier LDPE would otherwise be required - reducing material costs and environmental impact without sacrificing protection.

Size Selection Guide
This 12x16 bag provides approximately 1 inch of clearance around 11x14 standard print sizes, allowing room for backing boards and protective corners.
