Vexar™ Header Bags
Vexar™ Header Bags are an exceptional option for retail packaging of produce, meats, and seafood products. They are called header bags because they have printed paperboard graphics for high-visibility merchandising. They are an excellent way to communicate with the consumer while allowing them to touch, see and smell the wrapped product. Vexar™ Header Bags maintain a tighter, more attractive cylinder shape when loaded, even in slanted displays. Our header bags are easy to load, can be closed with nearly any closure, and are available in various shapes to accommodate automated or hand-loading. In addition to generic labels, Conwed also offers customized header labels.
Vexar™ Heat Sealed Bags
Vexar™ Heat Sealed Bags are produce bags heat-sealed on one end. Our heat sealed bags are shipped with a loading tube for easy handling. These bags are also suitable for steaming or smoking seafood, meat, and poultry because the heat seal can withstand high temperatures.
Vexar™ Wicketed Bags
Vexar™ Wicketed Bags are stacked and held together on a metal wicket that acts as a dispenser. There is a lip where two holes are punched, enabling the wicket to hold the bags. Wicketed bags are typically used for high-speed loading applications. Our wicketed bags are designed for easier and faster handling. Their fine netting strand count helps reduce produce debris and keeps retail displays cleaner. Wicketed bags are ideal for packing grapes, cherries, limes, plums, tomatoes, and other small-to-medium-sized produce.
