Plastic bag weight calculator

Calculate Plastic Bag Weight from Size and Micron

Estimate theoretical grams per piece, total kilograms and pieces per kilogram. Actual production weight may vary because of material density, dimensional and thickness tolerances.

Enter bag specification

Use the final approved resin density for production calculations.

How the estimate works

The calculator converts inch dimensions to millimetres, applies micron per layer, layer count and the selected material density to estimate material per bag. Production tolerance, resin blend, gussets, seals and printing can affect the final result.

What information should be confirmed?

  • Whether the dimensions are finished bag dimensions or film width.
  • Whether the micron is single-layer or double-layer thickness.
  • Whether gusset and seal allowances are included.
  • Whether the quotation is compared per kilogram or per piece.
