kforbs126 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I want to start handing out my sample tarts for my friends to test in packaging but not sure what the proper size/type would be good to order from Uline for a single tart.I think it would be from this page but not sure of the correct size:http://www.uline.com/BL_107/2-Mil-Industrial-Poly-Bags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Those are all flat bags, so you could just create a mockup using plain paper. When you find the size that works best, look for the closest size on the ULine page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scifichik Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 It depends on the diameter and thickness of your product. What are the measurements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kforbs126 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 It's the typical 1oz like this.http://www.peakcandle.com/products/Small-Tart-Mold--1-oz__A1004.aspxI know it shows dimensions but I guess I'm looking for someone who uses packaging that fits it well.

scifichik Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 You're in luck! I recently bought some Uline bags in different sizes, here from the classifieds. There is one size that is perfect for that size melt, which is what I am going to use them for. I'll be at my shop tomorrow and will get you the Uline catalog number. If you PM me your address, I'll be happy to mail you a couple to see if it is what you are looking for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polypropylene is better suited for compatibility with fragrance oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some plastics can leech or "suck out" the fragrance from your products, leaving a plain old chunk of wax in their wake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovemylabs Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 shifichik...so glad I found this thread. We're getting ready to order shrink wrap tubing/or bags for tarts. Can you tell me the size that you said these fit perfectly? Are they 3"? We also use the same mold as kforbs126 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
