Non-woven fabric bags, as an environmentally friendly, durable, and cost-effective packaging option, are widely used in shopping, promotional events, exhibitions, and other scenarios. When purchasing non-woven fabric bags, “gram weight” is a key parameter, but many people are unclear about its meaning and selection method. This article will help you understand the gram weight of non-woven fabric bags and assist you in selecting the appropriate bags based on actual needs.
What is the gram weight of non-woven bags?
Gram weight, simply put, refers to the weight of non-woven fabric per square meter, with the unit being “g/㎡”.
Under the same style conditions: the higher the gram weight, the thicker and more durable the non-woven fabric is, and the stronger its carrying capacity; the lower the gram weight, the thinner and softer the non-woven fabric is, but its carrying capacity is weaker.
Common three-dimensional non-woven fabric bags generally range from 80g/㎡ to 120g/㎡, while vest shopping bags range from 40g/㎡ to 60g/㎡, and flat-mouth document bags generally range from 60g/㎡ to 80g/㎡, with different choices based on usage and needs.
How to choose the gram weight of non-woven bags according to needs?
Shopping bags: Daily use scenarios
If you need a daily shopping bag for carrying light items such as food and clothing, a vest shopping bag of 40-60g or a three-dimensional non-woven fabric bag of 70-80g can meet the needs. These bags are both lightweight and have a certain carrying capacity.
If the shopping bag needs to carry heavy items, such as beverages and books, it is recommended to choose a three-dimensional non-woven fabric bag with a thickness of 90g or above to ensure the strength and durability of the bag.
Promotional bags: Exhibitions or promotional events
Promotional bags distributed at exhibitions and events mainly serve a promotional function and carry light items, so a non-woven fabric bag of 60g is recommended, which is both economical and meets basic needs.
If the bag is used to carry corporate promotional materials or small gifts, a choice of 70-80g is recommended to enhance the carrying capacity and also improve the grade feeling of the bag.
Gift bags: High-end uses
Gift bags have higher requirements for appearance and texture, and also require a certain carrying capacity. It is recommended to choose non-woven fabric with a gram weight of 90-120g. The higher gram weight not only makes the bag more durable but also allows for exquisite effects through screen printing or lamination processes.
Advantages and disadvantages of non-woven bags of different gram weights
Gram weight range | Advantages | Disadvantages | Suitable scenarios |
40-60g | Economical and lightweight | Weak carrying capacity, not suitable for heavy items | Promotional bags, temporary use bags |
70-80g | High cost-performance ratio, lightweight with certain carrying capacity | Cannot carry particularly heavy items | Daily shopping bags, ordinary gift bags |
90-120g | Durable and sturdy, better texture | Higher cost, thicker and less soft | High-end gift bags, heavy shopping bags |
Other considerations for gram weight selection
Cost budget
The higher the gram weight of the non-woven fabric bag, the higher the cost. When selecting, it is necessary to combine the budget to find the right cost-performance ratio.
Bag type and size
Large-sized bags are recommended to choose non-woven fabric with a higher gram weight to ensure the carrying capacity and overall structural stability of the bag. Small-sized bags can choose a lower gram weight to save costs.
Processing technology
If the bag needs to print complex patterns or text, thicker non-woven fabric (above 80g) is more suitable because its flatness and printing effect are better.
Environmental protection needs
Low-gram weight bags consume fewer resources in production and use. If the demand is lightweight and the carrying capacity is not large, they can be given priority.
Summary: Choosing the right gram weight is crucial
The gram weight selection of non-woven fabric bags directly affects their performance and usage effects. When purchasing, consider the following points comprehensively:
- Usage scenarios (shopping, promotion, gifts, etc.);
- The weight of the items to be carried;
- Budget and environmental protection needs.
By scientifically and reasonably selecting the gram weight, you can obtain a practical and economical non-woven fabric bag, bringing more convenience to your life or work.
