For most homes and offices, choose an LDPE garbage bag of 20 to 30 microns. For kitchens, hotels, hospitals and factories, choose 40 microns or more. Match the bag to your bin: the bag should be about 4 to 6 inches taller than the bin and wide enough to fold over the rim.
Truder Packaging Industries is a garbage bag and LDPE liner manufacturer in Vadodara, Gujarat, supplying businesses across India. This guide helps you pick the right size, thickness and material.
LDPE vs HDPE vs biodegradable garbage bags
LDPE bags
LDPE bags are soft, stretchy and puncture-resistant. They suit wet waste, kitchens and heavy loads.
HDPE bags
HDPE bags are thinner and crisper, and are used for dry waste, shops and light-duty liners.
Biodegradable / compostable bags
Biodegradable / compostable bags are made from starch-based materials. They suit eco-conscious homes and hotels, but cost more and have shorter shelf life.
Garbage bag size and thickness chart
These are typical market sizes. Custom sizes are available.
| Use | Bin size | Typical bag size | Micron |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bathroom / small bin | 5-10 L | 17 x 19 in | 15-20 |
| Home kitchen | 15-30 L | 19 x 21 in | 20-30 |
| Office / large bin | 30-60 L | 24 x 32 in | 30-40 |
| Hotels / restaurants | 60-100 L | 30 x 37 in | 40-50 |
| Factories / hospitals | 100 L+ | 32 x 40 in or custom | 50+ |
How to choose the right garbage bag
- Measure your bin. Add the bin's height and half its circumference. That is the minimum bag length needed.
- Match thickness to waste. Wet or sharp waste needs higher microns.
- Pick colour by purpose. Black is the standard. Green and blue can be used to separate wet and dry waste.
- Buy in bulk with custom sizes. This cuts cost per bag for hotels, hospitals, societies and factories.
