Wholesale Glassine Bags: Sizing, Uses, and Ordering Guide
Compartir
Glassine bags are a lightweight, grease-resistant, and translucent packaging staple for bakeries, stationery stores, and small brands. This guide covers sizing, common uses, and wholesale ordering tips.
What is glassine?
Glassine is a smooth, glossy paper made by supercalendering. It is air- and water-resistant, food-safe in many applications, and gives products a clean, premium look.
Most common uses
- Baked goods, cookies, and candies
- Small stationery, stickers, and washi tape
- Jewelry and accessories
- Soap, bath products, and candles
- Seed packets and small parts packaging
How to choose the right size
Measure your product and add room for the seal or fold-over flap. Common sizes run from roughly 5×9 cm for small items up to 20×24 cm and larger for bakery goods. Our glassine bag listings show the exact outer and usable dimensions for each size.
What to check when ordering wholesale
- Seal type: self-adhesive vs plain fold-over flap.
- Material weight: GSM affects stiffness and durability.
- Pack count: most wholesale glassine bags ship in packs of 100.
- Food safety: confirm the material grade if used for direct food contact.
Ordering tip
Order a small pack first to check sizing and print quality, then scale to wholesale quantities. Mixed-size orders are an easy way to cover multiple product lines without overstocking one size.
