Not all poly bags are created equal. If you’re in government contracting or military packaging, knowing the difference between 2 mil and 4 mil poly bags can make or break your shipment - and your contract.

In this video, we break down the real differences between 2 mil vs 4 mil poly bags, especially in the context of ASTM-compliant packaging for government and defense contracts. Both options technically meet ASTM packaging standards, but they serve different use cases, and choosing the wrong one can lead to inspection failures, package damage, or even contract penalties.

We’ll walk you through how each bag performs in the real world, including insights from our experience shipping thousands of military and aerospace components. We explain when it’s acceptable to use a 2 mil poly bag, such as for flat, soft items like washers, and why we typically recommend the 4 mil poly bag for its superior durability.

Plus, we tackle cost differences (spoiler: the difference is less than half a penny per bag) and explain why spending just a fraction more upfront could save you a ton of risk and hassle down the line.

Whether you're packaging for ASTM D3951, working through DLA contracts, or just looking for the right packaging choice for industrial products, this quick guide has you covered.
