Nowadays, the environmental issue has become one of the most pressing. Although there are many culprits behind this, the main is the usage of plastic bags. Due to the increased popularity of these, paper packaging has virtually disappeared from circulation. Shops, markets, supermarkets offer their consumers to take out goods in these non-biodegradable carriers. Consequently, we are creating persistent environmental pollution and it is growing every day.
But, Do We Have Any Reliable Solution?
About 40 countries have introduced a ban or restriction on the sale and production of these bags. Companies are using Kraft packaging now. Many leading brands have replaced polyethylene with new personalized garment bags with the company logo. Such packaging is not only safe for the environment but also gives status to the product. This status makes the company more significant in the eyes of customers. The main materials used for the production of such packaging is kraft paper and cloth.
Advantages of Kraft Garment Bags
Paper is a material of natural origin. It decomposes under the influence of atmospheric precipitation and other climatic factors and aggressive environments, and the final product of this process is almost the same substances as in the decay of ordinary wood. That is to say, the paper does not pollute the environment like plastic bags and other polymer products.
In addition, paper is recyclable. Having served its package, it can not only be thrown away but also used as waste paper for the production of new paper or cardboard. This makes paper more attractive material for the production of bags than polyethylene – especially in those countries where the environment is especially closely monitored and the use of products made of polyethylene and other polymers is limited.
A paper bag is the most convenient advertising medium. Paper makes it possible to realize the most incredible creative ideas of designers. A paper bag filled with products does not lose shape, like a plastic bag, it does not stretch, brand names are easy to read and do not deform.
What could be more important than brand recognition to increase sales? A thing packed in a paper bag looks much neater and more presentable than the same thing packed in a t-shirt bag – this undoubtedly stimulates the level of sales. That is why branded garment bags are so much in trend today.
