Self-Seal Bags

Self-seal bags are just like any ordinary plastic bags but with the advantage of being re-closable. Manufactured with the average customer in mind they are generally found in standard sizes, styles and shapes with optional write-on panels. Custom self-sealing bags can also be manufactured though, to accommodate specific needs and sizes or even made anti-static for containing electronic items. Another option is to also have a logo printed on them if the self-seal bags are to be sold with the items.

Differences between resealable bags and a self-sealing bags

Resealable bags are bags that can be re-used. Examples or resealable bags are the grip seal bag and the zipper bag. Self-sealing bags on the other hand, are bags that can be sealed without using an additional sealant (such as glue or tape) or without the need to heat seal the bags. So Grip-Seal bags and Zip-Lock bags are resealable bags and are also types of self-sealing bags.

Self-sealing bags

Mailing bags is another greatly used type of self-sealing packaging. Envelopes used to post documents and packages safely generally come with a self-adhesive strip to allow for the bag to be sealed. Although they are a type of self-sealing bags these bags are designed to be ripped open. Therefore mailing bags "are" self-sealing bags but as opposed to Gripper and Zipper bags they are not resealable bags.
