3.5 grams of flower, an 8th of nug, a half quarter, a slice of bud - no matter what you call it, everyone loves 3.5 gram bags of herbs. 8th bags are the perfect amount of hemp for so many different stoners’ needs - 3.5 grams in a bag is enough to tide some people over for an afternoon and others for a week. But these days, barrier bags for herbs are state of the art compared to the sandwich bags of the past.

The new standard for bags of flower and consumable products is mylar - a type of polyester film created and trademarked by Dupont Company in the mid 20th century. Mylar bags are airtight, resealable, opaque (though they can feature a vista window), smell proof, tamper evident barrier pouches - these things are the real deal. Plus, they can be made in almost any size for any amount of flower, like the worldwide favorite 3.5 bags.

As the modern hemp community moves away from dimes in sandwich bags and toward alluringly beautiful, resealable, trendy packaging, 3.5 gram mylar bags make satiating their interests easy. But our 3.5 mylar bags aren’t all the same dimensions. Rather, we carry 3.5 gram bags in slightly varying dimensions so you can create the flower packaging vibe of your dreams.

Follow along to learn more about why our 3.5 mylar bags are so popular lately and a closer look at each variety we carry. From 3.6” × 5” gold foil 8th baggies to classic black matte 3.6” × 5” stand up barrier pouches, we make your bulk mylar bags dreams come true. Check out our awesome custom labels, 100% customizable 8th baggies, and heat sealing machines, as well!

What Are 3.5 Gram Bags?

3.5 g bags, or “eighth bags” or “8th bags,” are any compliant bags that can hold up to 3.5 grams of herbs. They can also be used as small food packaging bags (for a single serving cookie, a couple of candies). And, as we mentioned, our 3.5 baggies are all made from the one and only mylar - but not just any mylar!

Our mylar bags collection is made from food grade mylar to ensure its airtight, scent-retaining, safety capabilities are the best they can be. The food industry has a long, loving relationship with mylar bags. Coffee, nuts, granola bars, and many other popular (and sometimes overly-aromatic items like coffee) are often packaged in mylar bags. On top of keeping the contents fresh, mylar is impact-resistant and can take being tossed around a bit.

Not that we’re all tossing our carefully packaged bud carelessly, but mylar bags wholesale give everyone peace of mind. Cultivators who tend to harvests for weeks know their precious flower will remain potent and dank. Company heads can feel confident that their shipments will arrive in good condition. Hemp store owners don’t have to break a sweat when clumsy customers peruse their shops. And customers can keep their purchases prime and heady for as long as they want.

3.5 gram mylar bags of herbs are hugely popular. Of course, many connoisseurs often stock up on their favorite strains in much larger quantities, but what better way to try a new strain than 3.5 grams in a bag? It’s the perfect amount for a few test sessions before committing to a larger order. There’s nothing worse than spending money on something you turn out not to like AND that you can’t return, but eighth bags take that wasteful feeling away.

On the other hand, an eighth of flower is a few weeks worth of herbs for some people. These days, with herbs more legal and available than ever, people are able to purchase and keep greens around for whenever they want or need it - a quick toke to take the edge off the week, relief from a random insomniatic evening, or celebrating a sunny Saturday afternoon. Eighth mylar bags offer something to every hemp consumer - from first timers to old pros.

What Types of 3.5 Bags Are Available?

We make 24 kinds of mylar 3.5 bags for flower and small consumables, including custom 8th bags! In general, they’re all similar in dimension, but there are some slightly larger and slightly smaller. Now, you might be thinking “Shouldn’t all 3.5 mylar bags be the same size since they’re for the same amount of herbs?” and that’s a good question. Let us put it this way: can all 150lb people wear the same t-shirt?

Nope! Some people need more room than others, while some prefer a fitted look. Some need wide bottom openings and others need wide arm holes. The same goes for herbs; each strain, each harvest is unique and beautiful. Some strains are more airy and need room to breathe in their barrier bags. Others are dank and compact and 3.5 grams in a bag doesn’t take up too much space.

The first consideration you’ll need to make about your 3.5 gram bags? Compliance laws in your state. We carry all types of mylar bags 3.5 g capacity to ensure you’ll find something that complies with your state (child resistant and tamper evident, but we’ll go into that in later sections). Once you figure that out, you can peruse our wide array of 3.5 mylar bag size varieties.

All of our bulk mylar bags for 8ths are resealable 3.5 smell proof bags. Mylar’s airtight quality is the absolute best for preserving the aromas and potency of your freshly cured harvests. So, no matter which one you choose, you can feel confident that both you and your customers can rely on the discretion and protection of our mylar barrier foil bags.

As you may have noticed, most of our 3.5 mylar bags wholesale include a measurement of 3.5 inches. This is truly one of the world’s interesting coincidences - it wasn’t done on purpose, it just turns out that that’s a great size for an 8th of most strains.

All of our barrier foil bags are glossy or matte stand up barrier pouches - when they’re full of bud (or propped open), most can stand up on their own. This can be sort of tricky with smaller baggies like 3.5 bags (it’s easier with larger quantities and larger bulk mylar bags), but sometimes you can get them to stand for display!

Are 8th Bags Child Resistant?

We make several child resistant mylar 8th bags that meet various state’s compliance packaging requirements, and they’re not called barrier pouches for nothing! Our child resistant mylar bags are hardy, resilient mylar bags 3.5 that feature various “hard to open” closures. One important thing to note, though, is that child resistant does not mean child proof.

Child resistant packaging is designed to be tricky or confusing for children under five to open - but the expectation is that they could somehow, eventually, open it. The goal is to keep kids out of the containers for long enough that A) they get bored and give up or B) a parent/caregiver intervenes. However, even child resistant containers like mylar barrier foil bags should be kept out of kids’ reach - just because they can’t figure out the official opening for a while doesn’t mean they won’t find a pair of scissors.

Let’s take a quick look at each variety of child resistant 3.5 smell proof bags:

Pinch N Pull

We make one kind of matte black Pinch N Pull child resistant 3.5 mylar bags wholesale. It comes in either fully opaque or vista varieties and is tamper evident, as well. The Pinch N Pull feature is what makes it child resistant, but it’s not too crazy difficult. Simply locate the green tab, pinch between thumb and index finger, then pull the bag open - Pinch N Pull!

Pinch N Slide

We offer a few varieties of Pinch N Slide child resistant 3.5 gram bags, including: matte black or white, 2.0 glossy black or white, 3.0 matte black vista, 3.0 glossy white vista, and one very special ASTM certified variety. The ASTM certified child resistant 3.5 bags come in either glossy black or white and meet some of the stricter child resistant compliance packaging regulations.

Pull to Open

We also a few varieties of pull to open child resistant eighth bags, including: the DymaPak matte black or white in vista or fully opaque, and the DymaPak kraft paper fully opaque. DymaPak is one of our favorite hemp packaging brands - they make exceptional child resistant, tamper evident, compliance packaging options that are always stylishly modern and secure. We also carry the DymaPak Twispencer child resistant dab syringe, which is hands down the coolest, most advanced dab syringe in our collection.

Any one of our child resistant 3.5 gram bulk mylar bags can be personalized with custom labels to give your ultra-compliant 8th bags a unique and original look. Selling a child resistant 3.5 bag of herbs doesn’t have to be a logistical nightmare anymore thanks to our extensive collection of compliant, aesthetic, customizable mylar bags 3.5 gram. Plus, most of our child resistant barrier bags are also tamper evident and there are plenty of opaque options. Whatever your state’s compliance laws, we’ll help you follow them in style.

Are Barrier Bags Tamper Evident?

Yes! All but two of our 8th mylar bags are tamper evident bag options, which is becoming a nationwide standard for hemp packaging. Just as it makes sense to have tamper evident labels on almost ALL food products these days (think about it; everything from your gallon of milk to your new jar of cumin has a tamper evident label/cap/ring on it), it makes sense to have tamper evident labels on hemp products, which are also being ingested.

The only two 3.5 gram bags we carry that are NOT tamper evident are the two ASTM certified child resistant flat barrier pouches, ironically. However, depending on your state’s exact requirements, you can use our tamper evident label stickers to make these 8th bags tamper evident. If placed across the plastic resealable zipper top, it would have to be broken (tampered with) to be opened.

While tamper evident mylar bags wholesale were created to keep prying customers out of un-purchased products, it also helps act as yet another moisture barrier for the flower within. Heat sealing mylar bags makes them extra effective moisture barrier packaging, which you can’t do with our ASTM CR certified 3.5 gram mylar bags. So, for the best tamper evident, moisture barrier packaging, we recommend our tamper evident certified 8th baggies.

3.5 Gram Bags - The Bottom Line

3.5 gram bags have always been and probably always will be an absolute essential for any cultivation operation or hemp retail store. Whether you’re looking for plain and simple black matte baggies or to create your own enticing custom 3.5 gram bags, we can help bring your 8th packaging to life.

One very important thing to remember when purchasing wholesale mylar bags is a heat sealer. These fantastic machines expedite your 8th bag (and all other mylar bag sizes) production, allowing you to easily turn out hundreds of bags a day. For a truly effortless and efficient experience, we recommend the semi automatic heat sealing machine; it can seal around 30 mylar bags in one minute!

An “8th” refers to an 8th of an ounce, which is 3.5 grams. While everyone does 8ths a little bit differently, the industry standard is 3.5 grams of flower, which all of our 8th bags can hold.

Mylar is extremely impermeable to air, or “airtight,” which is how Mylar bags are “smell proof.” However, dogs are clever creatures who are credited with having super olfactory senses for a reason. If someone handled flower then touched the outside of the bag (you or the packager), dogs will likely pick up the scent. Wiping your bag down with a wet wipe just in case may help to avoid this.

3.5 grams of regulated products, also called an “8th,” is an incredibly popular flower purchase at medical retail stores. 3.5 grams is enough to try a strain a couple of times before committing to a larger purchase - almost like a long-lasting sample. An 8th is also sometimes more than enough for infrequent partakers - in our airtight Mylar bags, flower can stay fresh for weeks. Whether it’s an afternoon’s worth or a month’s worth, regulated products consumers love 3.5 gram bags.

Yes, our 8th Mylar bags are smell proof! Mylar is highly impermeable to air, which prevents scents from leaches through the walls of Mylar bags. However, if someone handle medical flower then touches the bag, the oils may transfer from the fingers to the bag, leaving the scent of regulated products on the outside.
