5 Mil Heavy Duty Mylar® Bags

Mylar® Bags are an essential foundation for long-term food preservation and emergency preparedness. Our 5 mil heavy-duty Mylar® bags feature a multi-layer construction combining PET (Polyethylene) and aluminum foil to provide superior barrier protection against oxygen, light, and moisture.

5 mil thickness is widely considered the ultimate "sweet spot" in food storage. Thicker and significantly more puncture-resistant than standard 3.5 mil bags—yet flexible and effortless to seal—5 mil bags offer reliable, long-lasting defense for rice, beans, freeze-dried food, and dehydrated supplies.

You'll find a wide selection of sizes, ranging from small meal-size zip pouches up to 5-gallon bucket liners. All of our 5 mil bags are custom-designed, FDA, EU, and CFIA compliant for direct food contact, and completely BPA and PFAS free. Plus, all of our 5 mil Mylar® bags are safe to use as cook-in bags, allowing you to pour boiling water directly inside to rehydrate meals.

At Discount Mylar Bags, we continuously test our products, listen to customer feedback, and offer straightforward advice to keep your food supply secure. Enjoy complimentary shipping on orders over $75 within the contiguous U.S.
