Garbage Compactor Bags and Heavy-Duty Bags for Compacted Waste
Compacted waste presses on the film and pushes sharp fragments against it. MIRPACK offers thick single-layer LDPE and two-layer AB bags for these loads; we recommend testing free samples in your own compactor.

Why compacted waste needs a different film
In a compactor the bag takes pressure from all sides at once, and the waste inside has edges. The film has to stretch under that pressure rather than split.
LDPE (low-density polyethylene) is smooth, glossy and elastic: it stretches and holds sharp and heavy waste better. HDPE is strong in tension at a low thickness but barely stretches and is more sensitive to punctures, so for compaction we point buyers to LDPE.

LDPE thicknesses by volume, price list dated 20.08.2026.
| Volume | LDPE thickness | Per pack or roll |
|---|---|---|
| 120 L | 25–100 µm | 10–50 |
| 180 L | 30–100 µm | 10–25 |
| 200 L | 100 µm | 10 |
| 240 L | 30–100 µm | 10–20 |
| 280 L | 110 µm | 10 |
| 300 L | 70 µm | 10 |
| 480 L | 40, 70 µm | 5–10 |
Three ways to get the strength you need
- 01
Thick single-layer LDPE
Flat packs of 50–200 bags in our line of 30–480 L, with a flat bottom or gussets.
- 02
Two-layer AB film
Two layers of different composition in one film tube give strength at a lower thickness; 30–100 µm, in rolls.
- 03
Construction bags
LDPE bags of 20–400 L for loads up to 100 kg, for heavy debris rather than mixed waste.
LDPE, HDPE, MDPE and AB compared
Stretch, puncture behavior and typical thickness of each film we make.
Schematic: how the film behaves under a pull
High-density polyethylene
Matte, rustles, thin and strong against tearing at a low gauge, hardly stretches. More sensitive to punctures.

- Hardly stretches
- Strong at low gauge
- Thickness
- 7–40 µm

- Volumes
- 30–480 L
Testing before a volume order
We send up to 10 sample items free of charge. Every production batch passes the plant's own laboratory, which measures thickness, tensile strength and load.
If the standard positions do not fit your equipment, we make bags to your specification (thickness, color, packing) from 1 t per item.
Bags for compacted waste: questions
Which material suits compacted waste?
LDPE, because it stretches and holds sharp and heavy waste better; two-layer AB film adds strength at a lower thickness.
What is the nearest size to a 55-gallon bag?
55 US gallons is about 208 L; the nearest sizes we make are 200, 220 and 240 L.
Can you make a thicker custom bag?
Yes, to your specification from 1 t per item, within the plant's film range of 7–120 µm.
How quickly do you ship stock items?
1–5 working days after 100 % payment by bank transfer.
