Strong 60 µm Eco Postal Bags – Green 17×22"
This size pairs premium recycled film with a fast peel-and-seal strip for a permanent, tamper-evident closure. The lightweight build supports cheaper bands while delivering the strength buyers expect from strong self-seal postal bags and eco mailers.
Why this 17×22" size?
17×22" gives generous space for padded coats, bedding sets, cushions, bulk knitwear and multi-item orders. It prevents seam stretch and avoids moving to cartons for many soft goods. The bold green finish underlines your eco stance while keeping parcels tidy at the door.
Real use examples
- Padded coat or winter parka
- Double bedding set, throws or cushions
- Large hoodie + jeans bundle / multiple knitwear pieces
- Soft goods re-ships and warehouse returns
Fit & packing guidance
Best internal fit up to approx. 410×540×100 mm. Choose the smallest bag that closes flat across the seal. If the adhesive lip lands on a bulge, use corner pads or an inner sleeve; for very bulky items consider a shipper box. Press out trapped air to control size and weight.

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.
