12x18 TUF-R Flat Poly Bags by LK Packaging - Lightweight Protection for Apparel and Merchandise
These 12x18 TUF-R flat poly bags from LK Packaging deliver superior puncture resistance in a lightweight 1 mil thickness. Made from linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), TUF-R bags outperform standard LDPE bags of the same gauge, allowing you to use thinner material without sacrificing durability. Ideal for protecting folded apparel, textiles, prints, and light merchandise during storage and transit.

TUF-R Advantage
LK Packaging's TUF-R technology uses linear low density polyethylene to achieve greater strength and puncture resistance than conventional low density bags at equivalent thicknesses. This means you can often substitute a lighter gauge TUF-R bag where you would normally need heavier LDPE, reducing material costs and environmental impact without compromising protection.
Commercial Applications
The 12x18 size accommodates a wide range of commercial packaging needs. Apparel retailers and e-commerce operations use these bags for packaging folded t-shirts, sweaters, shorts, and other garments. Textile distributors rely on them for protecting towels, linens, and fabric samples. Print shops and photography studios package 11x14 and 11x17 prints safely. The light 1 mil gauge works well for dust protection, temporary storage, and situations where contents need visibility without heavy-duty containment.
Key Features
- Enhanced Puncture Resistance: LLDPE construction resists tears and punctures better than standard LDPE

Sizing Guidance
