Bread bags are specifically designed for the packaging of bread and bakery products, ensuring their freshness and extending shelf life. These bags are made from a variety of materials, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and paper, offering varying levels of protection depending on the type of bread or baked goods. Plastic bread bags are often used to retain moisture, preventing the bread from drying out, while paper bags are typically used for artisan loaves to allow air circulation, preventing mold growth. Printed bread bags provide branding opportunities, while resealable closures offer convenience for consumers. Additionally, some bread bags feature window cutouts for product visibility and to highlight freshness. Bakery packaging needs to meet both food safety standards and sustainability goals, leading to a rise in eco-friendly alternatives such as compostable or recyclable bread bags.
