Trash bags for restaurants in Panama: a practical guide

By the Ecoplásticos Panamá Team·Updated in 2026·6 min read

Restaurants generate large volumes of waste, much of it heavy and wet. Choosing the right trash bags for your restaurant prevents tears, spills and odors. The key is combining the right gauge, the correct size, and wholesale buying to save.

In summary
  • Kitchen waste is heavy and wet: it needs a strong gauge.
  • Separating organics, recyclables and common waste improves hygiene.
  • Buying wholesale lowers the cost per unit.

What gauge a restaurant needs

Kitchen trash includes food scraps, liquids, glass and packaging. That is why a heavy gauge that resists weight and moisture without tearing is best. For dry waste (cardboard, paper) you can use a lighter gauge and save.

Separate to comply and save

Setting up separation stations with the color code improves hygiene and makes recycling easier. Less mixed waste means less volume sent to landfill and a tidier kitchen.

Buy wholesale

A restaurant uses bags constantly. Buying wholesale lowers the cost per unit and ensures you never run out. At Ecoplásticos Panamá we offer special prices by volume.

Frequently asked questions

What bag size does a restaurant use?

Generally between 60 and 120 liters for general kitchen waste, and smaller sizes for bins and recyclables.

Do recycled bags hold kitchen waste?

Yes, as long as you choose the right gauge. Good-gauge recycled bags hold weight and moisture just like virgin-plastic bags.
