Garbage Bag Production Line

ABA or three-layer film, optional printing and a high-speed garbage bag machine — with the granulator that makes the loop profitable.

Stage

Garbage Bag Production Line

Stage 01 — Film blowing

Film blowing

ABA co-extrusion lets you use recycled filler in the middle layer; IBC adds output and gauge control.

Stage 02 — Printing

Printing

One to four colors for drawstring and printed refuse bags.

Stage 03 — Bag making

Bag making

70–150 bags/min, up to 800 mm open width, for thin-film drawstring and refuse bags.

Stage 04 — Recycling

Recycling

Closed-loop is the core of a garbage bag line — scrap grade is forgiving and regrind economics are direct.

Capacity example

Sample sizing from published machine specs. Exact output depends on material, width and configuration — confirmed in the proposal.

Closed-loop recycling

Garbage bag film tolerates recycled content well. Edge trim and start-up scrap are reground and fed back at a controlled ratio, cutting material cost directly.

Line questions

Line questions

What film is used for garbage bags?

HDPE and LDPE film, usually with a recycled or filled middle layer on ABA lines. Thickness typically 0.008–0.03 mm for retail refuse bags.

What bag sizes are possible?

Up to 800 mm open bag width on the DR machine; length is set by the cutting program.

How fast is the bag machine?

70–150 bags/min depending on bag size and film thickness.

Can I print on garbage bags?

Yes — 1 to 4 colors with the YTL flexo press, in line or as a separate pass.

Why is recycling recommended?

Garbage bag film accepts a high share of regrind, so the granulator pays back quickly and reduces raw material cost.
