Reusable handle bags with high recycled content
We use recycled material to manufacture checkout bags, shop bags and home delivery bags. All these products are made from post-consumer recycled material, offering the highest quality in all our ranges, adapting them to different market needs.
Reusable 50µm handle bags with more than 50% post-consumer recycled and sustainable material
At Walki Plasbel we create different types of reusable bags with recycled material in a sustainable way. This makes them one of the best alternatives and an optimal environmental solution, both for their composition and their use. Even the number of times they can be reused by the consumer stands out.
Walki Plasbel has three types of reusable bags, all made from post-consumer recycled material:
Type I reusable bags
These are reusable plastic bags, 50 microns thick, made of polyethylene with a recycled content of more than 50% and using water-based inks. They can be reused more than 15 times.
Type II reusable bags
These are reusable plastic bags of 50 microns thickness, made of polyethylene with a recycled content of more than 70%, using water-based inks. They can be reused more than 15 times.
Type III reusable bags
These are reusable plastic bags made of polyethylene with a content of more than 70% post-consumer recycled material that use water-based inks. They are 100% recyclable and can be reused a large number of times.
We developed 3 standard sizes of reusable bag made of post-consumer recycled material
50% recycled material
- 35x45cm 50µm
- 42x53cm 50µm
- 48x59cm 50µm
70% recycled material
- 35x45cm 50µm
- 42x53cm 50µm
- 48x59cm 50µm
How do we manufacture the reusable bag?
By recycling the waste created during the production process, we manufacture new products with new features, thus extending the materials’ lifespan.
The reuse of this recycled plastic reduces the environmental impact. We work in a circular economy, managing waste in an appropriate way, aving on raw materials and ensuring economic sustainability while having a positive effect on the environment.
Plasbel has been one of the first companies in Spain to obtain the UNE 53930 (Part 01 and 02): 2019 AENOR certificate
The plastics sector is constantly evolving and responding to the continuous demands of society. For this reason, AENOR provides support with a new certification scheme for the recyclability of plastic products. This scheme quantifies the percentage of recyclability of a product in accordance with the UNE-EN 13430.
Thus, the recycled material content and its origin are verified during the AENOR audits. In addition, the bags must meet a defined thickness and comply with a series of mechanical requirements that make them functional. These aspects are checked by carrying out tests in an accredited laboratory.
The UNE 53930 Standard has also been developed in order to carry this out as a result of the publication of RD 293/2018 on reducing the consumption of plastic bags. This publication requires that, in any case, plastic bags must include a minimum recycled content of 50% and a minimum thickness of 50 microns that provides consistency and facilitates their reuse.

We are compliant with the European Plastics Strategy. EU mandated in 2018 that by 2030, all plastic packaging placed on the EU market must be reusable, compostable or recyclable.
Recycled material with European Certification - EuCertPlast
We guarantee with EuCertPlast certification the highest quality of our post-consumer raw material and no harmful substances for health and the environment.
Material for Circular Economy
Citizens separate plastic materials selectively and our supplier recycles post-consumer plastic which is converted into pellets after a top-quality process and reused and transformed into new products. Thanks to its recyclability, it enables a sustainable circular economy in which material can be reused, reducing raw material use and improving our commitment to the environment.
