Mesh bags for onions
Breathable leno/raschel mesh packaging that keeps onions dry, ventilated and on view, from the warehouse to the shelf.



EU
Onions need to breathe. Packed in a closed bag they retain moisture, condense and start to rot before reaching the point of sale. Textil Villa de Pego's mesh bags, made in leno/raschel polyethylene and polypropylene mesh, let air circulate through the whole pack, draw off moisture and keep the bulb firm and dry through storage, transport and display. We are a Spanish manufacturer since 1949, with an ISO 9001 certified quality system and made-to-measure mesh bag production for cooperatives, fruit-and-vegetable packers and warehouses.
Total ventilation, no condensation
The open structure of the leno/raschel mesh allows continuous air flow through the bag. The onion does not sweat or build up internal moisture, which reduces mould, sprouting and rot during storage and transport.
Produce on view with enhanced colour
The mesh shows the grade, condition and natural colour of the onion without opening the pack. On the shelf, the weave enhances the golden, white or red tone of the bulb and drives impulse purchases against an opaque bag.
Strong and stackable
Robust mesh bags that take the weight of filling, sewing or cord closure and pallet stacking without deforming or tearing. Ready for intensive warehouse handling and distribution.
Made to measure with brand printing
We produce the bag in the capacity, size and colour each customer needs, and apply custom brand printing on the bag itself or on a band at the mouth. Packaging that also works as brand support at the point of sale.
Why choose mesh bags?
For onions, mesh is the only coherent option. A closed plastic or paper bag traps the moisture the bulb itself gives off, generates condensation and speeds up rot; leno/raschel mesh does exactly the opposite: it ventilates the whole pack, keeps the produce dry and breathing, shows the grade and colour without opening the pack, and lets the bags be stacked on a pallet without compromising airflow. It is a light, strong and 100% recyclable pack, designed so the onion reaches the shelf in the same condition it left the warehouse.
Leno Mesh Bag
For onions we recommend the Leno Mesh Bag (raschel), our benchmark bag: its wide, breathable weave offers maximum ventilation with high resistance to weight and stacking, ideal for grading and presenting onions in warehouse and retail formats.

Which bag is best for packing onions?
The leno/raschel mesh bag. Its open weave ventilates the whole pack, prevents the condensation that rots onions in closed packaging and leaves the produce on view. We make the model, capacity and colour to suit each warehouse or cooperative.
Can the bags be personalised with my brand?
Yes. We apply custom brand printing on the bag itself or on a printed band at the mouth, with the logo, grade and details the customer specifies. It is a common service for packers and brands that display on the shelf.
