5x15 Tuf-R Linear Low Density Flat Bags - Puncture-Resistant Packaging for Long Items
These 5x15 Tuf-R flat poly bags from LK Packaging deliver superior puncture resistance in a slim profile ideal for silverware, utensils, breadsticks, and other elongated items. Made from linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), Tuf-R bags offer extra strength compared to standard LDPE bags of the same gauge, allowing operations to downgauge while maintaining performance.

Why Tuf-R LLDPE?
Tuf-R bags feature the molecular structure of linear low density polyethylene, which provides enhanced tear and puncture resistance compared to conventional LDPE. This allows commercial operations to use a lighter gauge bag while achieving equivalent or better protection. The result: reduced material cost per bag and a smaller environmental footprint without sacrificing performance.
Commercial Applications
The 5x15 dimension serves multiple industries requiring slim, elongated packaging:
- Food Service: Wrapped silverware sets, individual utensils, plastic cutlery bundles, chopsticks
