How to Measure a Paper Bag
Bag Dimensions (in.) W x Gusset x L:
When measuring a bag, the dimensions are measured by width x gusset x length.
- Width: The measurement of the face of the bag.
- Gusset: Measured by opening the sides and measuring it from edge to edge.
- Length: The measurement from the bottom of the bag to the lower lip on the face of the bag.
- GSM: The unit of measurement for the weight of a fabric, in our case paper. GSM or grams per square meter, it’s one of the properties that determine a bag’s strength. Higher GSM paper usually makes for a stronger bag, but what you gain in strength you lose in flexibility.
Commonly Used Bag Terms
Each of our products is assigned a unique Bulldog Bag product code. This code is used to identify and track specific products throughout the manufacturing and distribution process.
The Universal Product Code (UPC) is a barcode found on product packaging that helps identify the item. It typically includes a black barcode that can be scanned at checkout, along with a 12-digit number beneath it for easy identification.
In the packaging industry, bag sizes are often expressed in pound (#) sizes, which is a shorthand used within the market. These sizes used to relate to the volume or capacity that a bag can hold, but with the advent of multiwall paper bags for CPGs, these pound sizes have become more of an industry shorthand rather than actually being used for measurement.
Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is a measurement of paper weight that indicates how heavy a square meter of paper is. The higher the GSM, the heavier the paper will be. GSM is one of several attributes to consider when gauging the durability of a paper product.
In the United States, paper weight is also measured in pounds per ream. This measurement indicates how much a ream (500 sheets) of paper weighs. It’s a common unit of measure that helps determine the sturdiness of the paper used in your bags.
Pack Quantity refers to the total number of bags included in one bundle or case. For example, if the pack quantity is 500, there are 500 bags in that particular bundle or case.
Ti and Hi describe how a product is stacked on a pallet. “Ti” (Tier) indicates the number of bundles on each layer of the pallet, while “Hi” (Height) refers to the number of layers stacked on top of each other. This helps ensure efficient use of space during shipping and storage.
Pack Weight is the total weight of a full bundle, measured in pounds. This information is crucial for handling, shipping, and storage considerations.
A case refers to a box in which bags are packaged, while a bundle is typically strapped with plastic ties. Knowing the difference helps you understand how your products will be packaged and delivered.
Pack Dimensions refer to the length, width, and height of a bundle or case. These dimensions are important for storage planning, shipping logistics, and ensuring your products fit within designated spaces.
Pallet Quantity is the total number of bags stacked on a single pallet. Understanding pallet quantity helps manage inventory levels and plan transport and storage.
