French Bread Bags 7x18 - Extra-Strength LLDPE for Artisan Bakeries
These 7 x 18 inch Tuf-R flat poly bags by LK Packaging deliver the puncture resistance and clarity bakery operations need for packaging French bread, baguettes, and other elongated loaves. Made from linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), these bags outperform standard LDPE at the same gauge—meaning you get stronger protection without added material cost.

Commercial Applications
The 7x18 dimension fits standard French bread, demi-baguettes, sub rolls, and hoagie loaves with room to seal. Retail bakeries use these bags for display cases and customer purchases. Wholesale bakery operations package loaves for delivery to restaurants, cafés, and grocery accounts. Sandwich shops and delis rely on this size for storing prepped bread inventory. The elongated format also works for non-food applications including dowels, rolled prints, poster tubes, and craft supplies.
Key Features
- Superior Puncture Resistance: LLDPE construction withstands crusty bread edges and handling stress better than standard poly
- Downgauge Capability: 1 mil Tuf-R often replaces heavier 1.5 mil LDPE, reducing material costs
- Crystal Clarity: Clear material showcases baked goods for retail presentation
- FDA Compliant: Virgin materials safe for direct food contact without barriers
- Consistent Quality: LK Packaging manufacturing ensures reliable thickness and seal performance
Material Advantage: LLDPE vs. LDPE
Linear low-density polyethylene offers a molecular structure with shorter, more uniform branching than standard LDPE. This translates to better tear resistance, improved puncture strength, and enhanced stretch properties. For bakery packaging where crusty edges can stress bag material, LLDPE provides a measurable performance advantage. Many operations find they can use a lighter gauge Tuf-R bag where they previously needed heavier LDPE—reducing both cost and environmental footprint.
