100% recycled and recyclable
Grey mailing bags are a lightweight postal bag for clothing, soft goods and general e-commerce despatch. These grey poly mailers are made from 100% recycled polythene sourced from UK scrap material, so they divert waste from landfill while still protecting the contents. An adhesive peel-and-seal strip closes each bag in seconds and forms a tear-proof, water-resistant seal for transit. The polythene is odour-neutral, which suits porous products such as textiles and helps them arrive fresh. Available in nine sizes, from 250 x 350mm (opening width x internal height) up to sizes of a large postal bag. The smooth grey surface takes address and carrier labels cleanly.
Sold and priced per pack.
Where do grey mailing bags work best?
Grey mailing bags suit retail, e-commerce and subscription operations posting non-fragile soft goods at volume.
- Posting clothing and textiles, where the odour-neutral polythene keeps porous garments fresh in transit.
- High-volume e-commerce benches, where the peel-and-seal strip closes each bag in seconds with no tape step.
- Subscription and direct-mail runs, where grey poly mailers keep postage down and contents discreet.
- Domestic and international routes, where the tear-proof, water-resistant seal holds up across varied handling.
Not for
- Rigid, sharp or fragile items with no inner protection. Use cardboard boxes with void fill for crush and corner protection.
- Documents or prints that must not bend. Use a Do Not Bend envelope instead.
- Items that need cushioning against knocks. Use a padded mailer, which a flat poly bag does not provide.
