Kraft bags

They are becoming increasingly popular as a substitute for plastic bags. Although some of them do not have handles and need to be held with two hands. It's important to note that most supermarkets don't sell kraft bags, except in the culinary department, so it's advisable to buy them in advance.

Cling film

Cling film is an additional alternative to packaging materials. In particular, it is an excellent substitute for bags when buying meat. In addition, cling film is usually more favorably priced than bags and has a longer service life.
