Takeaway Bags

Takeaway bags need to fit the completed order, including the containers, lids and any extra sides. Atlas Packaging Hub supplies bulk bag options for cafes, takeaway venues and food retailers, with paper formats for carrying orders and packing individual items. Start with the footprint and weight of your usual order rather than the bag’s size label. A suitable bag should let staff pack the food level and hand it over without forcing the contents inside.

Takeaway bags across the range

Brown Kraft Bag Twisted Paper Handle Takeaway Medium is listed at 250 per carton. Another Brown Kraft Takeaway Bag Twisted Paper Handle format is listed at 150 per carton. Check the product code and dimensions when ordering, because similar names do not necessarily describe the same bag.

The range also lists GPL paper formats such as Kebab Bag White GPL, 3 Long White GPL Bag and several Long and Square Brown GPL Bags. Those listings use inner pack quantities, commonly 500 per pack; ask us to confirm the full carton configuration for your business order.

Small, Medium and Large Reusable Plastic Carry Bags marked 40um also appear in the catalogue. Availability on a website is not confirmation that a bag can be supplied in every state. Discuss the intended location before selecting plastic or a bag marketed as compostable. Ask separately if you require a flat paper handle instead of the listed twisted handle formats.

Choose around the complete order

Measure the outside of the packed takeaway containers, including lid edges. If two containers sit side by side, compare their combined width with the bag’s usable base. If they stack, check the total height and leave room to hold the handles without pressing into the food.

The bag’s material and handle style do not provide a verified weight rating. Ask for the supplier’s load guidance and trial your normal order, including drinks or heavier meals. For bulky sides, compare the footprint of your food trays; for tall items, check burger boxes in the packed position.

Use suitable primary food packaging and check whether the selected paper bag has any stated grease barrier. Moisture, oil and sharp container corners can affect handling. Store bags dry and avoid loading more into one bag simply because there is room at the top.

Bulk orders and delivery

We supply bulk cartons to ABN registered businesses, with wholesale pricing on enquiry. Prices are quoted per carton, excluding GST. Include the bag code, carton quantity and postcode in your quote request; for GPL formats, ask for the inner pack breakdown. We aim for a 24 hour quote turnaround and deliver across Melbourne and Australia. Stock, destination suitability, freight and expected delivery timing are confirmed for the order before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Which bag size fits two meal containers?

Measure the containers with lids attached, arranged as they will travel. Compare that combined footprint and height with the bag’s internal dimensions. Send us those measurements; a medium label alone does not establish the fit.

How much weight do the handles take?

A verified weight limit needs the specification for the exact bag. We do not give a universal load rating for twisted paper handles. Tell us the packed order weight and check the supplier’s guidance before ordering.

Are the compostable bags certified?

Ask us to confirm a specific available product and supply its certification. Do not assume a category name or material description is certification. Compostable plastic bags can also be restricted by local bag rules, so disposal claims and permission to supply are separate checks.
