Freezer bags are an everyday packaging essential for many Australian food businesses. From restaurants and cafés to takeaway shops, catering businesses, supermarkets and commercial kitchens, having the right freezer bags available can make food storage, preparation and organisation more practical.
For businesses that use freezer bags regularly, choosing the right size and purchasing in bulk can also help maintain a consistent supply and reduce the need for frequent reordering.
In this guide, we look at what freezer bags are used for, how to choose the right size, and the commercial freezer bag options available from MRA Packaging.
What Are Freezer Bags?
Freezer bags are plastic bags designed for storing, separating and organising food and other suitable items.
In commercial environments, they can be useful for businesses handling larger quantities of food throughout the day. Having freezer bags readily available makes it easier for staff to organise ingredients, separate portions and keep storage areas more manageable.
Businesses that commonly use freezer bags include:
-
Restaurants
-
Cafés
-
Takeaway shops
-
Catering businesses
-
Supermarkets
-
Grocery stores
-
Food preparation businesses
-
Commercial kitchens
-
Hospitality businesses
-
Food service operations
MRA Packaging supplies a range of commercial freezer bags in bulk carton quantities for Australian businesses.
Why Freezer Bag Size Matters
Choosing the correct freezer bag size is important because businesses often store products of different dimensions and quantities.
Using a bag that is much larger than required may be unnecessarily inconvenient, while a bag that is too small may not accommodate the product properly.
For businesses that handle different types of food, keeping more than one freezer bag size available can provide greater flexibility.
MRA Packaging currently offers freezer bags in three practical sizes:
-
200 × 250mm
-
250 × 300mm
-
300 × 380mm
Each option is supplied by the carton, making them suitable for businesses that regularly use freezer bags.
200×250mm Freezer Bags

Which Freezer Bag Size Should Your Business Choose?
The best size depends on what your business normally needs to store or organise.
Here is a simple comparison:
| Freezer Bag Size | Carton Quantity | Best Considered For |
|---|---|---|
| 200×250mm | 6,400 bags | More compact storage requirements |
| 250×300mm | 5,160 bags | General medium-sized requirements |
| 300×380mm | 2,800 bags | Larger storage requirements |
Businesses handling a variety of products may benefit from keeping several sizes available rather than relying on a single freezer bag size.
You can compare all available options in the MRA Packaging Freezer Bags collection.
Benefits of Buying Freezer Bags in Bulk
For commercial businesses, freezer bags are often a regularly used consumable rather than an occasional purchase.
Buying freezer bags by the carton can offer several practical advantages.
Maintain Stock Levels
Having a bulk supply available can reduce the risk of running out of freezer bags during busy periods.
This is particularly useful for restaurants, caterers, supermarkets and other businesses where packaging products are used every day.
Reduce Frequent Reordering
Ordering larger carton quantities means businesses may not need to place smaller orders as frequently.
This can simplify purchasing and stock management.
Suitable for High-Volume Businesses
Commercial kitchens and food businesses may use significantly more packaging than households.
Bulk freezer bags provide quantities better suited to these higher-volume environments.
Keep Different Sizes Available
Businesses dealing with different food products can keep multiple freezer bag sizes in stock and choose the appropriate size when required.
Freezer Bags for Restaurants
Restaurants often handle a wide variety of ingredients throughout the day.
Freezer bags can form part of a broader food storage and kitchen organisation system, particularly when staff need convenient bags available for different products.
Keeping multiple freezer bag sizes available can also make it easier to accommodate different storage requirements.
Freezer Bags for Takeaway Businesses
Takeaway businesses can have high packaging consumption because of the volume of ingredients and orders they handle.
Alongside products such as carry bags, roll bags and food wrapping products, freezer bags can be an important part of everyday back-of-house operations.
Businesses purchasing packaging frequently may find carton quantities more practical than repeatedly purchasing smaller packs.
Freezer Bags for Catering Businesses
Catering businesses often prepare and organise food in larger quantities.
Whether preparing for a small corporate event or larger catering operation, having packaging products available in bulk can help teams maintain a consistent supply.
Different freezer bag sizes also allow catering businesses to select a bag according to what they are preparing or storing.
Freezer Bags for Supermarkets and Grocery Stores
Supermarkets, grocery stores and other food retailers can also require freezer bags as part of their regular packaging supply.
Because these businesses may handle numerous types of food products, having multiple bag sizes available provides greater flexibility.
MRA Packaging supplies freezer bags alongside other packaging essentials including carry bags, roll bags, meat film wrap, tray liner bags, garbage bags and thermal paper.
What to Consider When Buying Commercial Freezer Bags
Before ordering freezer bags for your business, consider a few key factors.
Bag Size
Think about the typical dimensions of the products your business needs to store.
If your requirements vary, consider stocking multiple sizes.
Quantity
Estimate how many freezer bags your business uses during a normal week or month.
Businesses with higher consumption may benefit from purchasing by the carton.
Storage Space
Bulk cartons require suitable storage space.
Consider where cartons will be stored and how staff will access replacement packs when required.
Other Packaging Requirements
Freezer bags are usually only one part of a business's packaging requirements.
You may also need products such as carry bags, roll bags, meat film wrap, tray liner bags, garbage bags or thermal receipt paper.
Consolidating regularly used packaging products can make purchasing and inventory management easier.
