Bulk Mesh Shopping Bags

“Avoska” (Russian), “Kubi Bukuro” (Japanese), and “Einkaufsnetz” (German) - these are all names to describe string mesh bags - a handy invention popular in almost every culture for its muti-functionality and sustainability!

Armed with an airy open-netted design and easy-to-carry tote handles, mesh string bags are fast becoming a crowd-favorite accessory when grocery shopping. Read on to learn how buying mesh shopping bags wholesale for all your storing and organizing needs is also a step towards a plastic-free life.

What Goes into Creating a Sustainable Mesh Shopping Bag

Most commonly found mesh bags in the market are made from non-woven, synthetic materials like nylon or polyester. While these bags are reusable and durable, they aren’t exactly good news for the planet in the long run. 

The bags we offer are made from 100% certified organic unbleached cotton. Let’s spend a minute on why this variety of cotton is a greener alternative to synthetic fabrics and, for that matter, even regular cotton. 

Organic cotton is 100% biodegradable, just like any other plant-based fiber. But there’s more. This type uses significantly less water to grow than conventional cotton and is cultivated without GMOs, chemical pesticides, or fertilizers. Meaning, mesh bags made from organic cotton are just as practical with the added advantage of being more sustainable than synthetic mesh, regular cotton bags, or the dreaded single-use plastics. 

The Many Benefits of Buying Bulk Mesh Shopping Bags

If you are looking for a multi-purpose eco-friendly alternative to plastic shopping bags, look no further than an organic cotton string mesh bag. Here are some of the many benefits of these bags.

• Breathable: The open-netted design spells wonders in terms of aeration, making these bags perfect for storing and preserving fresh produce.
  
  
• Reusable: Thick and hardy construction means these bags hold up well even when used rigorously. To clean, toss the dirty ones in your washer (cold cycle) and hang them dry. 
  
  
• Tote Handles: A classic string mesh design is incomplete without easy-to-grip tote handles that don’t chaff or leave welts on your hands. The comfy handles make it easy to lug the bag around and also score in the looks department.
  
  
• Robust Construction: We make our bags from high-quality natural and organic cotton. They are ultra-durable, and you’ll never feel them reeling under the weight of the contents or snapping open. These bags are stretchy but not to the point of touching the ground. 
  
  
• Compact: One of the biggest perks of a mesh bag is its compactness is their adaptability. The bags fold down to a small size enough to place a few of these in your big canvas shopper on your next visit to the farmers market.

Much More Than Just a Bag: Versatile Uses of Mesh Bags

In the 1930s economically-crippled USSR, people made it a point to carry string mesh bags in their pockets. The bag was called “avoska,” which loosely translated to “just in case” or “hopefully.” The moment anyone would chance upon ration or consumables, they would scoop it up and stash it in their avoskas. For the Soviet citizens, a string mesh was more than just a bag - it represented hope. 

Here are some more examples of their versatility.
