Description
Soluble Strip Laundry Bags – Pack of 200
Our Soluble Strip Laundry Bags – Pack of 200 provide a practical, hygienic solution for handling contaminated or soiled laundry in hospitals, care homes, nursing homes and other healthcare environments.
Designed to support effective infection control procedures, these laundry sacks feature a water-soluble strip that dissolves during the washing process, allowing the contents to be released without the need to manually empty the bag.
Widely used throughout the NHS and wider care sector, soluble strip laundry bags help minimise direct contact with soiled clothing, bedding and other washable textiles, supporting safer laundry handling for healthcare and laundry staff.
Hygienic Laundry Handling & Infection Control
Effective infection control is essential when handling contaminated laundry, particularly in healthcare and residential care environments.
Soluble strip laundry sacks allow soiled textiles to be collected and transported in a contained bag before being placed into the washing machine in accordance with the facility's laundry procedures.
During the wash cycle, the soluble strip dissolves, allowing the bag to open and release its contents for washing.
This reduces the need for additional handling of potentially contaminated laundry and helps support established infection prevention and control procedures.
Ideal for Hospitals, Care Homes & Healthcare Facilities
Our soluble strip laundry bags are suitable for use in a wide range of professional care environments, including:
- Hospitals and NHS healthcare facilities
- Residential and nursing care homes
- Hospices and rehabilitation centres
- Supported living facilities
- Commercial and institutional laundries
- Other environments handling potentially contaminated laundry
Their convenient design makes them particularly useful for facilities managing regular volumes of soiled bedding, towels, clothing and other washable textiles.
Easy to Use
Soluble strip laundry bags provide a straightforward method of collecting and handling soiled laundry.
Place the laundry inside the bag, secure it in accordance with your facility's procedures and transport it to the designated laundry area.
The bag can then be placed into the washing machine following the manufacturer's washing instructions and your organisation's infection control procedures.
The water-soluble strip dissolves during the appropriate wash cycle, opening the bag and releasing the laundry.
Please note: These are soluble-strip bags, not fully water-soluble laundry bags. The bag material itself must be handled and disposed of in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

FAQs
Soluble Strip Laundry Bags – Frequently Asked Questions
What are soluble strip laundry bags?
Soluble strip laundry bags hold soiled linen for collection, transport and washing. A water-soluble strip opens the bag during the wash, releasing the contents without staff needing to empty it by hand.
Does the whole laundry bag dissolve?
No. Only the soluble strip dissolves. The remaining bag material must be removed after washing and disposed of appropriately. These bags are different from fully soluble laundry bags.
How many bags are included?
Each case contains 200 laundry bags, supplied in four packs of 50.
What size and colour are these bags?
These red laundry bags measure 450 x 700 x 950 mm. The product code is 30000020.
How do I use a soluble strip laundry bag?
Place the soiled linen inside and close the bag using the securing tie. Load the sealed bag into a compatible washing machine according to the product instructions and your laundry procedures.
At what temperature does the strip dissolve?
The soluble strip dissolves at approximately 20°C. This is the strip’s opening temperature, not a recommendation for disinfecting laundry. Follow your approved laundering process and confirm the bag’s suitability for the intended cycle.

Yes. They are designed for use in hospitals, nursing homes, care homes and laundry services to help reduce direct handling of soiled linen.
