Bags for potato packers who need ventilation, light control and shelf presentation at once.
Potatoes have two problems at the same time and they pull in opposite directions. They sweat, so the pack has to breathe. And they green under light, so the pack has to shade them. A clear poly bag solves the second problem and creates the first; open mesh solves the first and leaves the tuber exposed.
Which is why most retail potato programmes end up on a combo bag: a printed film face that shades part of the tuber and carries the brand, with a net window that keeps the air moving and lets the shopper see what they are buying.
Same crop, different trade-offs. What separates them is how much air, how much print area and how gently the pack holds the product.
Potatoes green under light and sweat in plastic. The mesh body handles the air; where a chain asks for more coverage, the poly and mesh combination shields part of the tuber while keeping the pack breathable.
See Header Bags specifications →Potato packers running by weight rather than by count get the most out of a continuous roll: the machine sets the length, so the pack size changes without changing bags.
See Tube Bags specifications →The format most retail potato programmes settle on. The film face carries the brand and the cooking guidance; the net window lets the shopper see the tuber and lets the pack breathe so the potatoes do not sweat.
See Combo Bags specifications →Potatoes need air and darkness. Mesh gives the air; the mesh colour is what you adjust to control how much light reaches the tuber.
See All Mesh Bags specifications →Where the retailer's sustainability commitment covers the bag as well as the tray, the compostable tube replaces the conventional tube at the same capacities.
See Compostable Net Tubes specifications →Retail potato packs for chains that specify no metal fasteners in the packaging.
See Heat Sealed Mesh specifications →Light. Exposure to light makes the tuber produce chlorophyll and, with it, solanine. A pack with a printed film face over part of the bag shades the tuber; open mesh does not.
Neither alone is ideal. Mesh breathes but does not shade; poly shades but does not breathe. A combo bag gives you both, which is why it is the format most retail potato programmes settle on.
From 1 lb to 10 lb in combo and header formats; 1 lb to 7 lb in all mesh and tube bags.
Yes. Tube bags arrive as continuous mesh on a roll, so the machine sets the length and the pack size changes without a bag changeover.
