Get Rid Of Mess and Hassle: The Best Bin Liners for Your Wheelie Bin


Bin liners are an essential part of any household or commercial establishment, and play a crucial role in maintaining cleanliness and hygiene. From everyday waste to heavy-duty debris, bin liners are designed to handle various disposal needs safely and efficiently. Understanding the different thicknesses and strengths available can help you choose the perfect bin liner for your specific requirements.


Do you ever wonder what the numbers on bin liners really mean? Well, wonder no more! The gauge of a bin liner refers to its thickness. It's like the bag's version of physical strength. For instance,100 gauge equals 25 microns and is considered light-duty, while 500 gauge equals 125 microns and is built for extremely heavy-duty uses.


The typical gauge sizes and micron equivalents are:

100 gauge = 25 microns = Light Duty, economy black bin liner typically sold in discount stores.
120 gauge = 30 microns = Medium duty, this would be the standard bin liner.
140 gauge = 40 microns = Medium Duty, most popular thickness bag for refuse sacks.
160 gauge = 40 microns = Extra Medium Duty for General purpose, strong quality black bin liner for domestic use.
200 gauge = 50 microns = Heavy duty bag, suitable for commercial waste.
300 gauge = 75 microns = Extra Heavy duty, ideal for building & garden waste.
500 gauge = 125 microns = Normally a rubble sack for building waste.


Liners also come in different colours including black and also clear. 

Now, why would you choose a clear liner over a black one? Clear liners make waste sorting a breeze, as you can easily see what's inside. However, black liners are typically more common, and budget-friendly.


Bin liners not only come in different thicknesses, but also different sizes. There are ones for wheelie bins, square bins, swing bins, and even pedal bins! Each type is designed to fit a specific bin style. Pedal bin liners are usually smallest liners available, perfect for those step-to-open bins, whilst wheelie bin liners are some of the largest available on the market right now. 


Choosing the right bin liner thickness and strength ensures efficient waste disposal and maintains a clean and safe environment. Whether you need bin liners for everyday household use or demanding commercial applications we can guarantee our extra-strong bags are some of the strongest currently available on the market right now. Our heavy-duty liners are 200 gauge which means they have a thickness of 50 microns.

Other bin bags suppliers do not state the gauge or thickness as in the main they are likely to be less than half that of Wheelie Klip bags. The approximate bag size again is far larger than those currently sold by other companies and supermarkets.
