SOS Kraft Bags 10 x 12 Inch 250 Pack
Built for till-side speed
The SOS (self-opening sack) construction is the operational point of difference on this 10 x 12 inch kraft bag. The flat block base lets the bag stand unaided on the counter whilst a cashier loads a hot box, a drink and a side — no second hand required to hold the mouth open. For a strung-handle 12 inch alternative without the self-standing base, see the 12 inch flat brown kraft paper bag.

Frequently asked questions
Will the bag stand up on its own at the till?
Yes — the flat block base is the defining feature of the SOS format and allows the bag to stand unaided whilst cashiers load items in.
Is the handle stapled or strung?
Neither — the handle is internally twisted into the kraft paper, so there is no exposed hardware in contact with food or hands.
Is this bag suitable for hot food and oily items?
Yes — the kraft paper is food-safe and grease-resistant, suitable for hot boxes, fried items and pastries from takeaways and delis.
