BOPP bags deliver crystal-clear product presentation for confectionery, baked goods and retail packaging. Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene film provides superior clarity and gloss that showcases your products while protecting them from moisture and dust. Food manufacturers, bakeries and chocolatiers use BOPP bags to present their products professionally without compromising on protection.

BOPP film is stretched in two directions during manufacturing, creating a stronger, clearer material than standard polypropylene. This process produces bags that resist tearing, maintain their shape and provide an excellent moisture barrier. All sizes are stocked in our Sydney warehouse for fast Australian delivery.

18 sizes available from 90 x 50mm to 360 x 180mm, including side seal and gusseted options. See the table below for size categories and best uses.

How BOPP Bags Support Food Packaging Workflows+

BOPP bags integrate smoothly into manual and automated packaging lines. The open-top design allows staff to load products quickly by hand or via filling equipment. Once filled, bags move to heat sealing stations where impulse or constant heat sealers create a secure, tamper-evident closure in seconds.

The crystal-clear film serves quality control throughout the process. Packers can verify correct products and quantities without handling contents. After sealing, QC staff can inspect for proper fill levels, product positioning and seal integrity through the transparent material. This visibility reduces errors and rework.

Once sealed, the moisture barrier protects products during storage, transport and retail display. The high-gloss finish maintains its appearance through handling, ensuring products look their best when customers see them on shelves. This combination of protection and presentation supports both product quality and sales performance.

BOPP vs Standard Polypropylene+

BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) outperforms standard PP film in clarity, strength and moisture resistance. The biaxial orientation process stretches the film in both machine and cross directions, aligning the polymer chains for improved mechanical properties. This creates a clearer, stronger, more moisture-resistant material than cast or blown PP films. For food packaging where product visibility and protection matter, BOPP delivers superior performance. The higher clarity showcases products better, the improved strength reduces tearing during handling, and the enhanced moisture barrier keeps products fresher longer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are BOPP bags food safe?+

Yes. BOPP bags are food-safe and suitable for direct contact with confectionery, baked goods, dry foods and other food products. The material is widely used in food packaging applications globally.

How do I seal BOPP bags?+

BOPP bags seal with standard heat sealing equipment. Impulse sealers, constant heat sealers and band sealers all work effectively. Adjust temperature and dwell time based on your specific equipment. Test seals before production runs to confirm settings.

What is the difference between bottom seal and side seal bags?+

Bottom seal bags have the factory seal at the bottom with the opening at the top. Side seal bags have the seal running along one side. Side seal bags often provide a cleaner presentation for slim products like chocolate bars or biscotti where you want the seal hidden from view.

What does the gusset do on the 305 x 130mm bag?+

The 60mm gusset creates a flat bottom that allows the bag to stand upright when filled. This is ideal for retail display where you want products to stand on shelves rather than lie flat. Gusseted bags also hold more volume than flat bags of similar dimensions.

Can I get custom printed BOPP bags?+

Yes. Custom printed BOPP bags are available for larger orders. BOPP film accepts high-quality printing with excellent colour reproduction. Contact our team to discuss your branding requirements, minimum order quantities and lead times.

How should I store BOPP bags?+

Store BOPP bags in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight. Keep cartons sealed until needed to protect bags from dust. Avoid storing near heat sources or in humid environments. Properly stored bags maintain their clarity and performance for extended periods.

Are BOPP bags recyclable?+

BOPP is a polypropylene material (plastic code 5) that can be recycled where soft plastic recycling facilities exist. Check local recycling programs for soft plastic acceptance. Clean, dry bags without food residue are most suitable for recycling.
