Garbage bags in Thailand look like a commodity — until you compare two bags labeled "30×40 inch, 120 micron" and find one weighs 30% less than the other. That difference is your cost-per-piece, and it's hidden in the spec sheet most suppliers won't show you.
Here at GPS, we publish our full garbage bag spec sheet — 12 sizes, exact micron, exact pieces-per-kilo. No hidden math.

Why "Pieces-per-Kilo" Matters
This number is what procurement should look at first:
Price is per kilo, but consumption is per piece
A 30×40 bag at 120 micron yields 11-12 pcs/kg — so 100 kg = ~1,100-1,200 bags
If a competitor claims "30×40, 120 micron" but delivers 15 pcs/kg, the bag is thinner than advertised
MOQ & Lead Times
Standard sizes (12 above): MOQ 150 kg per size — usually in stock
Custom sizes: MOQ 150 kg per size, lead time 7-10 working days
Certifications That Mean Something
ISO 9001:2015 — Quality Management System
RoHS Compliant — Free from restricted substances (Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, etc.)
Micron tested every batch before shipping — true to spec
High tensile strength — bag won't tear under heavy waste loads
