Clear Polythene Garment Covers on a Roll – 90 Gauge / 22.5 Micron

Our clear garment covers on a roll provide a quick, economical and convenient way to protect hanging clothing from dust, dirt and everyday handling marks. Manufactured from lightweight 90 gauge / 22.5 micron clear polythene, these covers suit high-volume environments where garments need to remain clean, visible and ready for collection, display or transport.

Each garment cover has an opening near the top for a coat hanger. This allows the clothing to remain hanging while the polythene drapes over the garment. The transparent material makes it easy to identify colours, styles and customer orders without removing the cover.

Supplied on rolls weighing approximately 10kg, the covers take up less storage space than individually packed garment bags. Easy-tear perforations separate each cover from the roll, helping staff package garments quickly during busy working periods.

Quick and Convenient Garment Protection

These polythene garment covers combine simple dispensing with reliable temporary protection. Place the roll in a suitable dispensing position, pull out one cover and tear along the perforated line. The cover can then be placed over the hanging garment, with the hanger passing through the opening near the top.

This roll format works particularly well for dry cleaners, commercial laundries, alteration shops and clothing retailers that prepare large numbers of garments each day. Staff can separate covers as required while keeping the remaining roll organised and ready to use.

The clear film also makes stock control and order identification easier. Employees and customers can view the garment without repeatedly removing its protective covering, helping reduce unnecessary handling.

These covers primarily protect against dust, dirt and light handling marks. They provide temporary packaging for hanging clothes and are not a substitute for sealed, waterproof or long-term archival garment storage.

Available Lengths and Approximate Quantities

Choose a cover length that allows the garment to hang naturally without exposing or compressing the hem:

• 36 inch / 900mm garment covers – approximately 480 covers per roll; ideal for shirts, T-shirts, blouses, jumpers, knitwear and shorter jackets
• 48 inch / 1200mm garment covers – approximately 360 covers per roll; suitable for longer tops, jackets, suits and shorter dresses
• 60 inch / 1520mm garment covers – approximately 288 covers per roll; suitable for coats, long dresses and many maxi dresses
• 72 inch / 1800mm garment covers – approximately 240 covers per roll; ideal for gowns, bridalwear, formal dresses and other full-length garments

Each roll weighs approximately 10kg. Therefore, the number of covers supplied is approximate and may vary slightly because of normal manufacturing tolerances.

The recommended applications above are general guides based on average garment lengths. Always measure the clothing before ordering, particularly when packaging bridalwear, formalwear, wide skirts or unusually long garments.

How to Measure Garment Covers on a Roll

The size shown refers to the approximate drop or length of the garment cover. To choose the correct size, hang the garment on the hanger that you intend to use and measure from the top of the hanger or shoulder area to the lowest point of the garment.

Allow additional clearance so that the cover extends beyond the hem without pulling tightly against the clothing. If the garment falls close to the maximum cover length, choose the next size up.

You should also consider the garment’s overall width and depth. Suits, structured coats, layered dresses and full bridal gowns can require more room than lightweight shirts or narrow dresses. Measuring the garment while it hangs naturally will provide the most reliable guide.

Why Choose Our Garment Covers on a Roll?

Our garment covers offer an efficient solution for businesses that regularly handle freshly cleaned, pressed, altered or prepared clothing. The roll format supports fast dispensing, while the perforations make it easy to separate individual covers without scissors or cutting equipment.

The lightweight clear polythene helps keep garments clean while allowing their contents to remain visible. This makes the covers particularly useful in environments where staff need to identify clothing quickly, including dry-cleaning counters, alteration departments, retail stockrooms and customer collection areas.

With four lengths available, the range can accommodate everything from shirts and knitwear to coats, formal dresses and bridal gowns. The approximately 10kg roll format also provides a practical balance between quantity, storage and handling.

PPWR Compliance Information

Regulation (EU) 2025/40 on Packaging and Packaging Waste, commonly known as the PPWR, applies to polythene and polypropylene packaging placed on the EU market. Material specifications and supporting product documentation are available for our polythene and polypropylene products to help customers complete their compliance assessments.

However, material type, recycled content or food-contact suitability alone does not confirm full PPWR compliance. The responsible economic operator must assess the finished packaging and its intended use against all applicable requirements, including packaging minimisation, substances of concern, recyclability, recycled content, labelling and technical documentation.

Customers intending to place these products on the EU market should email sales@expresspackaging.co.uk to request the latest available documentation and confirm suitability for their application before making a PPWR compliance claim.

Material and Responsible Disposal

These garment covers use lightweight polythene film. Where practical and hygienic, consider reusing clean covers before disposal.

Recycling availability for flexible polythene film varies between local authorities and commercial waste providers. Keep the covers clean, dry and separate from general waste where a suitable film recycling service is available. Please consult your local authority or waste contractor for guidance.

Do not describe these covers as biodegradable or compostable unless the relevant product specification expressly confirms this.

Safety Information

Keep polythene garment covers away from babies and young children because thin plastic film can present a suffocation hazard. Keep the covers away from naked flames, heaters and other high-temperature surfaces.

These products provide temporary garment protection and are not toys, sealed waterproof packaging or long-term archival storage covers.
