Trash bags and garbage sacks: all sizes and colors at Franz Mensch
With a garbage bag you collect and dispose of waste very cleanly and hygienically. Garbage bags are mostly made of plastic films such as LDPE or HDPE and are available in different thicknesses, sizes and colors. A distinction is made between garbage bags and trash sacks. The term trash bag usually refers to the smaller versions up to a size of about 70 liters. Garbage bags, or trash sacks, are usually larger and have a volume of up to 240 liters or more. Therefore, garbage bags are excellent for collecting smaller amounts of waste. Large garbage bags are mainly used in the commercial sector for the disposal of large waste or large quantities of waste.
At Franz Mensch you can get garbage bags in all sizes, materials and colors. Here you are guaranteed to find the right bag for your needs.
Features of a good garbage bag:
- Stable and tear resistant
- liquid-tight

How to choose the right garbage bags:
The most important criterion for selection is the size of the garbage bag. Check how much trash you need to dispose of, the size of the waste, and which trash container the trash bags need to fit into. Large dumpster, trash can, mesh basket or small cosmetic bin? The size of garbage bags is always specified in liters.
Buy here in the store all standard sizes and also intermediate sizes for your individual needs:
- Garbage bags 120 liters is the best selling size and fits universally for many uses

Once you know the appropriate size of waste bags, comes the choice of material
Materials for garbage bags and garbage sacks
Garbage bags are made of plastic films made of LDPE, HDPE or a sustainable bio-film made of corn starch (PLA). All films are available in different thicknesses. The thicker the material, the stronger and more tear-resistant the trash bag. Thinner garbage bags, on the other hand, are less expensive. It is important to check what kind of garbage you want to dispose of. Is it about heavy or sharp-edged waste? Then strong LDPE garbage bags with approx. 70 to 80 my are just right. They are strong enough to withstand the weight of the waste without tearing or leaking. Or do you need an opaque trash bag that hides unsightly contents? Here, Franz Mensch offers you the black LDPE waste bags that give a hygienic appearance at all times.
- Advantages garbage bags LDPE: LDPE stands for low-density polyethylene, a material used for the production of hygienic and slightly elastic garbage bags. LDPE garbage bags are impervious to moisture, tear resistant, durable and available in all colors
- Advantages garbage bag HDPE: HDPE stands for high-density polyethylene and is much cheaper than LDPE because the film can be produced thinner. HDPE garbage bags are stronger, non-elastic and slightly rustling compared to LDPE bags
- Advantages Organic garbage bags PLA: sustainable and biodegradable. Learn more about all bio garbage bags and paper bags here
Closures for garbage bags
To secure the contents, minimize odors and transport the trash bags there are several ways to seal a bag:
- Trash bag with drawstring: integrated in the edge of the trash bag, can be easily pulled out and knotted
- Trash bags with handles: to be used as practical carrying handles or to tie the trash bag in knots
- Wire fasteners: Wire slings available as accessories here in the store
Garbage bags in different colors: Blue, Red, Black, Yellow
Colored garbage bags are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also practical. They can be used to separate different types of waste, such as recyclable and non-recyclable waste. Or you can work with a hygiene color system in your business and use the colors to distinguish different work areas from each other. Colored garbage bags support this system and ensure consistent implementation to avoid cross-contamination. 1 color = 1 area, e.g.
- Garbage bagred=Sanitary
- Garbage bag blue=Production
- Garbage bag yellow=Kitchen
