Strong 60 µm Eco Postal Bags – Green 15×18"
This size pairs a premium recycled film with a fast peel-and-seal strip for a permanent, tamper-evident closure. The lightweight build supports cheaper bands while giving the strength buyers expect from strong self-seal postal bags and eco mailers.
Why this 15×18" size?
15×18" adds room over 12×16" for jackets, chunky knitwear and multi-item apparel bundles. It protects seams from stretching and avoids stepping up to very large bags. The bold green film underlines your eco message while keeping parcels tidy at the door.
Real use examples
- Winter jacket or thick hoodie with jeans
- 3–5 T-shirts folded with tissue
- Small boxed gifts or merch (pad sharp corners)
- Soft textiles, returns packs, warehouse re-ships
Fit & packing guidance
Best internal fit up to approx. 360×430×80 mm. Choose the smallest bag that closes flat across the seal. If the adhesive lip lands on a bulge, move up to 17×22". For slimmer orders, step down to 12×16". Press out trapped air and add simple corner pads for boxed goods.

Eco & materials
Co-extruded recycled LDPE balances strength with a lower material footprint than virgin plastic of the same gauge. These bags are not biodegradable or compostable; please recycle via carrier-bag return schemes where available.
Strength & protection
60 µm film resists scuffs, tears and punctures better than economy grades. The adhesive forms a tamper-evident seal that stays shut through sorting and last-mile delivery. The deep green film is fully opaque for buyer privacy.
Storage & performance
Store flat at 13–21 °C away from heat and sunlight. If stock arrives cold, allow it to reach room temperature before use for a consistent seal.
Lightweight = lower postage
Mailers cut dead weight and help keep parcels within cheaper bands for Royal Mail, Evri and other couriers. Use a slim inner box only when sharp edges or presentation require it.
