Learn More About Five Gallon Mylar Bags

Five gallon Mylar bags give bulk buyers a heavy-duty, light- and moisture-blocking barrier for long-term storage of grains, beans, rice, pasta, dried herbs, coffee, tea, candy, powders, pet food and supplements. Crat Packaging produces these bags at our own US facility, so you get consistent foil lamination, food-safe seals and low minimum order quantities without importing from overseas.

Key Features of Our Five Gallon Mylar Bags

  • High-barrier foil lamination — a PET/aluminum foil laminate blocks light, oxygen and moisture for true long-term shelf life.
  • Heavy-duty thickness — available in 5 mil and 10 mil gauges to match bulk grain, freeze-dried food or industrial dry goods.
  • Heat-seal closure — bags seal flat and airtight with a standard impulse sealer, compatible with oxygen absorbers.
  • Sized for 5-gallon buckets — cut to fit standard food-grade 5-gallon buckets for pantry and emergency food storage programs.
  • Custom printing available — add your logo, lot codes or instructions in CMYK or spot color.
  • Food-safe construction — suitable for direct food contact, dried goods, coffee, tea, powders and pet food.
  • Free die and plate setup — no tooling charges on custom sizes or print runs.
