20x18x36 Gusseted Poly Bags - Expandable LDPE Packaging for Bulky Items
These 20x18x36 gusseted poly bags provide versatile packaging for irregular or bulky items that standard flat bags cannot accommodate. Manufactured from 1.5 mil virgin LDPE resin, these bags feature expandable side gussets that allow the bag to conform to oversized products while maintaining a compact profile when empty. FDA compliant for direct food contact applications.

Applications
The expandable gusset design serves multiple commercial packaging needs. Food service distributors use these bags for bulk bakery items, large loaves, and oversized produce where the gusset accommodates irregular shapes. Retail operations package clothing, linens, and soft goods that benefit from the extra width. Warehouse and distribution centers rely on gusseted bags for protecting awkwardly shaped products during storage and shipping. Manufacturing facilities use them for component parts and sub-assemblies that don't fit standard flat bag dimensions. The 36-inch length handles tall items while the 18-inch gusset expansion provides substantial width when needed.
Key Features
- Expandable Gussets: Side gussets open to accommodate bulky or irregular items up to 18 inches wider than flat dimension
- Versatile Closure: Can be heat sealed, tied, stapled, or taped depending on application requirements
- Superior Clarity: High transparency allows product identification without opening the bag
- Durable Bottom Seal: Reinforced seal prevents leakage and maintains bag integrity under load

- Light to Medium Duty: 1.5 mil thickness provides adequate protection for most non-sharp items
Gauge and Application Guidance
At 1.5 mil thickness, these bags are suitable for light to medium-duty applications where puncture resistance is not the primary concern. This gauge works well for soft goods, food products, and general warehouse items. For sharper or heavier objects, consider upgrading to 2 mil or heavier gauges. All listed gauges are nominal thickness.
