The reusable bag is LeKAC’s signature product. In a previous blog post, we showed you how these bags were made. But what kinds of reusable bags are available, and what can you use them for? Read on to learn more!
Non-Woven & Woven Polypropylene
At the most basic level, our reusable bags are available in two versions: woven and non-woven. This refers to the way that the polypropylene (PP) fabric is formed. For our standard non-woven PP bag, the filaments are pressed into long sheets which are then cut and sewn. With woven reusable bags, strips of the PP material are woven together (like a basket!) instead of becoming a flat sheet.
As our signature product, the non-woven reusable bag is also one of our most popular styles. The PP material we use for these bags also forms the basis of (almost) every other reusable bag we offer! Think of the non-woven and woven PP bag as the base upon which other styles are built!
Kraft Woven
Woven PP on the inside, a kraft texture on the outside! Our kraft woven bags are the perfect balance between function and fashion. Despite the kraft paper exterior, these bags are extremely durable. The material is water-resistant, making it great for running errands, from farmer’s market to the fruit picking field and beyond. These bags often come as brown kraft, and can feature contrast piping and handles for an extra aesthetic touch.
We love this bag for: pick your own farms, furniture stores, and handcrafted goods!
Heat Sealed
Our typical custom nonwoven and woven PP bags use stitching to create the bag’s shape. As an alternative, we also offer heat sealed reusable bags! Rather than stitching, we apply heat at the seams and handles of the bag. These can also be more durable and water resistant than the standard reusable bag!
Try this style for: takeout, cafés, and flowers!
Cooler Bags
Whether cold or hot, our cooler bags will keep your products at the perfect temperature! Available in both woven and non-woven bases, these bags feature insulation to keep the heat out or the cold in. For an additional aesthetic touch, these bags are also available with a heat-pressed dot texture!
Ideal for: meat & seafood, takeout, and frozen goods.
Natural Materials
In addition to our non-woven PP bags, we also offer a variety of natural fibre materials for our reusable bags. Bags made with these materials–while also durable–are more commonly an everyday bag rather than a functional piece. The main types of natural fibres we offer include:
- Canvas,
- Hemp, and
- Bamboo
Especially with the rise in popularity of the tote bag, we’ve seen many businesses start to offer tote bags as a form of merchandise!
Consider using these bags for: in-store merchandise, gift bags, everyday shopping bags.
Other Reusable Bags
Though these are our most popular kinds of bags, this isn’t a definitive list! We offer a wide range of bag styles depending on your needs. Not sure which style would work best? Contact us to get in touch with one of our knowledgeable Business Development consultants for a free consultation!
