What is a paper bag?

A paper bag is a type of container made from paper, typically Kraft paper. It is often used for carrying and transporting goods, groceries, and other items. Paper bags come in various sizes and shapes, and they are commonly used as an eco-friendly alternative to plastic bags because they are biodegradable and can be recycled.

The construction of a typical paper bag involves folding and gluing a flat sheet of paper into a bag shape, with a bottom and sides. Some paper bags have handles for easier carrying. They are widely used in retail stores, supermarkets, and other businesses for packaging and carrying purchased items.

In addition to their practical uses, paper bags are often chosen for environmental reasons, as they are considered more sustainable and less harmful to the environment compared to certain types of plastic bags.
