Description

A small kraft t-shirt bag measuring 8.75 + 5 x 17 inches. The t-shirt style has two handles cut from the bag itself, so it carries easily with no separate handles. The kraft fabric is 25 GSM, and the 5 inch gusset gives room for boxed or stacked items.

Restaurants and cafes use this size for takeout and delivery orders, while bakeries, grocers, convenience stores and retail shops use it at the checkout counter. With 600 bags in a case, it suits businesses that bag orders all day. MPPL ships it from our Richmond, BC warehouse along with the containers and packaging that go inside it.

Q. How does a takeout restaurant choose the right t shirt bag size?

A. Choose by your most common order: a small shirt bag suits single meals and a few containers, while larger sizes suit family orders and groceries. Keeping two sizes at the pass avoids using an oversized bag for small orders.

Q. How should restaurant staff pack a t-shirt bag so it does not tear?

A. Staff should place heavy or flat containers at the bottom, keep hot items upright, and avoid filling past the handle base. Spreading weight evenly reduces strain on the handles during delivery.

Q. Are these kraft fabric bags the same as paper t shirt bags?

A. This bag is listed as kraft fabric at 25 GSM, which is not the same description as a standard kraft paper shirt bag. MPPL confirms this is a non-woven polypropylene (PP) fabric bag, not paper, so businesses that specifically need paper should choose a different item. Eco-focused businesses that need paper specifically should confirm before switching.

Q. How can a retail boutique or grocer use GSM to compare shirt bags?

A. GSM, grams per square metre, lets buyers compare the weight of bags made from the same kind of material, with a higher GSM meaning a heavier material. Compare GSM only between bags of the same material type.

Q. Should a grocer or takeout restaurant choose kraft or plastic t-shirt bags?

A. A grocer or restaurant should choose kraft t-shirt bags when a natural, kraft-style presentation matters, and plastic where the lightest option matters most.

Q. Do kraft t-shirt bags help an eco-focused business meet sustainability goals?

A. It depends on the exact material and what your local disposal programs accept. MPPL confirms the material is polypropylene (PP), which is recyclable but not compostable. MPPL's team can confirm the details so your claims to customers stay accurate.

Q. How much weight can a small kraft t-shirt bag carry for a grocery order?

A. Load capacity depends on the material and how the bag is packed. MPPL gives a safe carrying capacity of 2 to 3 kg when carried by hand. Grocers should test with a typical basket and move heavy orders to a larger size.

Q. Can takeout restaurants use kraft t shirt bags for hot food?

A. Yes, t shirt bags are commonly used for hot takeout, as long as containers sit upright with lids fully closed. MPPL confirms PP is inherently heat-resistant, so hot food and steam are not an issue, and the fabric is breathable and allows drainage. Hot food is normally placed in a food container before it goes into the bag. Leaks can soak and weaken the bag, so check containers before bagging.

Q. Can a retail boutique or restaurant see the kraft t-shirt bags before buying?

A. Yes, businesses in the Lower Mainland can see and handle bags at MPPL's Richmond showroom before committing. That helps boutiques and restaurants judge the look and feel against their brand.

Q. Do checkout bag bylaws affect which t-shirt bags a Canadian business can use?

A. Yes, several Canadian municipalities regulate checkout bags with fees or restrictions on certain materials. Check your local bylaw before choosing bags for your takeout counter or store.
