About non-woven bags
Non-woven bags are made from polypropylene fabric in many GSMs and colours. They are among the most economical reusable carry bags and are widely used by garment shops, supermarkets, pharmacies and promotional campaigns.
Check your state's current rules on carry bags and minimum GSM before ordering.
About grocery bags
Grocery bags must carry heavy, bulky shopping without tearing. Supermarkets, kirana chains and organic stores order reusable grocery bags in non-woven, cotton or jute, printed with store branding.
Base width and handle reinforcement matter more than fabric for heavy grocery loads.
