Description
The Inteplast Healthcare Laundry Bag (R285HA) is a heavy-duty institutional liner designed for the safe containment and transport of soiled linen in healthcare and commercial laundry environments. With a 20–30 gallon capacity and dimensions of 30.5" x 41", these bags are engineered to handle heavy loads of sheets, gowns, and towels without failure.
Manufactured from 1.05 mil Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), the bag features a Star Seal® bottom that distributes weight evenly and significantly reduces the risk of leaks or bursts. Pre-printed with a clear “Soiled Linen” legend in blue, it supports proper linen segregation and workflow compliance.
