Packaging Bread for Delivery
Posted by Melanie Green on Jul 1st 2020
Bread is one of the most in-demand side items in delivery orders. Bakeries see a large number of orders for bread as well. Filling a high volume of orders requires the right packaging. Otherwise, the waste associated with using the wrong bags for each item begins to build up and can hurt the profitability of your delivery services. You can fix this by finding the right packaging. PacknWood has several bread packaging options to choose from that fit your specific packaging needs while helping the environment.
What is Kraft Paper?
Kraft paper is a different type of paper made using similar methods as additional paper, but it is made out of eco-friendly materials through eco-friendly processes. Regular paper is made using harsh chemicals, such as bleach, to create a bright white finish. Kraft paper is made without using these chemicals, making it more eco-friendly when disposed of.
What is PLA?
PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a type of plastic that is specifically designed to be harmless to the environment. Many companies are beginning to use it to replace traditional plastic. PacknWood also uses eco-friendly PLA to create lids and windows in its packaging to help the environment while still getting the benefits of plastic. It is similar to traditional plastic in many ways, including its durability and transparency. However, it is made using eco-friendly materials to get the same benefits as plastic about the harmful effects. PacknWood’s Kraft Bread Bag with PLA Window uses eco-friendly Kraft Paper as well as eco-friendly PLA plastic.
Kraft Paper Bread Bag with PLA Window
PacknWood uses Kraft paper and eco-friendly plastic in its Kraft Paper Bread Bag with PLA Window. It comes in three sizes: 12.6-inches, 15.7-inches, and 22-inches. That way, you can match the bag to the right size of the bread that you are packaging. There is a window running down the length of the bag that lets you see the entire length of the bread. Since many customers are concerned with tampering, this is an easy way to see if it has been tampered with.
Reducing Waste
The packaging you choose can determine the size of your profit margins per item. Bags are often priced by size, and larger items tend to be more expensive. If you use a bag that is too large for a piece of bread when there is a smaller, better fitting option available, the difference in pricing will decrease your profit margin. Use the right size packaging for each item to avoid packaging waste.
