  1. Plastic Carry Bags are a versatile and convenient solution for everyday carrying needs. They come in various sizes, thicknesses, and designs, making them suitable for retail, grocery, and personal use. These bags are lightweight, cost-effective, and easy to store, providing practicality for both consumers and businesses. However, their environmental impact is significant, as improper disposal contributes to pollution and wildlife hazards.

Proper recycling practices also help mitigate their ecological footprint, supporting a cleaner and greener environment.
