Woven and non-woven PP bags for retail, grocery and promotion
Direct Eco Green produces two families of reusable polypropylene bags: woven PP and non-woven PP. Both are lightweight, breathable, water resistant and easy to wipe clean, which makes them practical for groceries, retail purchases and event giveaways.
- Woven PP bags — a tightly woven tape fabric with a stiff body; the sturdier choice for heavy loads and long service life.
- Non-woven PP bags — a bonded fabric with a soft hand; a cost-efficient choice for promotional and retail programs.
The surface of woven and non-woven bags can be coated with OPP film, which takes high-definition gravure printing and adds a glossy finish. Depending on use, the factory estimates 3 to 4 years of average service life for these bags, and longer with moderate use.

Materials, durability and end of life
Direct Eco Green PP bags are designed for repeated use: their main environmental benefit comes from replacing many single-use bags, so it grows with the number of times each bag is reused. A heavier fabric weight extends service life for grocery use.
- Recycled content: recycled polypropylene can be specified; ask the factory to confirm the recycled share per reference before you make a recycled-content claim.
- End of life: polypropylene is a plastic, so avoid "biodegradable" wording; laminated OPP film and printed surfaces also affect recyclability.
- Care: the bags wipe clean, which suits regular grocery use.
Compliance for the US and Canada
Direct Eco Green helps you match bag specifications and claims to the market where they are handed out. Many US states and municipalities regulate checkout bags, with rules that can depend on material, construction and intended reuse; check the requirements in each jurisdiction where your stores operate and share them with us so the bag is specified accordingly.
In Canada, the Single-use Plastics Prohibition Regulations ban plastic checkout bags; reusable bags are a common replacement, but confirm that your format and use fall outside the regulated definition. Under the FTC Green Guides, recycled-content and recyclable claims must be substantiated, and California's SB 343 restricts "recyclable" claims and the chasing-arrows symbol to materials that meet state criteria.
Custom printing and private label
Direct Eco Green prints your logo in any color and placement, with full-color gravure printing on OPP-film bags. You choose the fabric weight, the size and handle length, and can consolidate PP bags with rPET bags or organic cotton tote bags in the same order. Samples are available before mass production.
Why buy PP bags factory-direct from Direct Eco Green
Direct Eco Green is a manufacturer and sourcing partner, not a distributor: we produce through audited partner factories in Asia and Europe, run quality control on site and consolidate several bag lines into one shipment. For bulk and wholesale orders, buying factory-direct means a specification you control, consistent print quality and a lower total cost of ownership than re-sold stock.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between woven and non-woven PP bags?
Woven PP bags are made from interlaced polypropylene tapes and are stiffer and stronger for heavy loads. Non-woven PP bags use a bonded polypropylene fabric that is softer and usually more economical for promotions.
What fabric weights are available for PP bags?
Direct Eco Green woven and non-woven PP bags are available in 80, 100, 120 and 180 g/m². Heavier fabric suits grocery use and longer service life.
Can PP woven bags be printed in full color?
Yes. PP woven bags coated with OPP film take full-color gravure printing, and Direct Eco Green prints your logo in any color and placement. Samples are available before production.
Are polypropylene bags biodegradable?
No. Polypropylene is a plastic, so PP bags should not be described as biodegradable. Their environmental benefit comes from reuse over many trips, and any recycled-content claim must reflect the share the factory confirms.
What is the minimum order for custom PP bags?
The MOQ for Direct Eco Green PP woven and non-woven bags depends on material, size and printing, and it is stated in your quote. Send your target volumes to receive a quote within 48 hours.
