CINCINNATI, OH – Duro Bag, the number one paper bag manufacturer in the world, now has 100% recycled paper handle bags, originally debuted in June, in stock. With more and more U.S. cities looking to follow San Francisco’s lead in banning plastic bags, Duro is ready to meet all demands of their clients wishing to offer an environmentally preferable solution to their customers.

 

The handle bags, with the “original” handle up design patented by Duro, are made from 100% recycled paper exclusive in North America to Duro Bag. This paper is comprised of 60% post industrial and 40% post consumer fibers. The larger 1/6 size of the bag helps with source reduction at the checkout counter, as it allows for more items to be placed in the bag. By applying more adhesive surface the wider, stand up handles also provide additional carrying strength. 

 

With the 100% recycled handle bags now in stock, being environmentally conscience is just as easy for privately-owned stores as it is for the larger chains because the bags are readily available for purchase in smaller quantities than required for a custom printed order. With a minimum order of only one pallet Duro has placed environmental-consumerism within reach of any supermarket, regardless of size. A single pallet with 400-bag bundles has 7,000 bags and a pallet with 300-bag bundles has 6,000 bags which is also easy to store for the space-conscience retailer.

 

This stock  bag promotes environmental awareness with it’s contemporary design and message. One  side of the bag has the message “This bag is our commitment to the environment; it is made of 100% recycled paper; it reduces landfill volume; it reduces virgin paper pulp consumption. This is a recyclable bag that will reduce greenhouse gases and save our planet.” The other side promotes the fact that the bag is reusable and recyclable and lists ways to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle and the ever present “Thank you” to your customers.
