Bag holder apparatus including a bag support platform, a rigid, upstanding back structure and a bag retainer structure fixedly attached to the back structure, the retainer structure including an elongated bar elevated relative to an upper end of the back structure and downwardly extending elongated bag engagement members spaced from the back structure.

Bag holder apparatus including a rigid, upstanding holder back, a handle retainer structure on the holder back and a handle releasably attached to the holder back by the handle retainer structure. The handle when removed is used to open the bag and maintain the bag in open position.

A bag container dispenser includes a bag container. The container is formed of resilient material and has a bottom, a top, first and second sides, a front, a back and a removable access panel. The access panel has a top segment that includes a portion of the top and a connected front segment. The front segment has a height that extends from the bottom to the top. Stacked bags are sized and shaped to fit within the bag container. Each of the bags has a front wall, a back wall, an open top and a closure mechanism. The bags are dispensable from the container through an opening provided by removal of the access panel which may have a removable cover. A dispenser rack has a horizontal platform sized and shaped to support the bag container. Peripheral guards extend upward from the platform and constrain movement of the container during dispensing.

A plastic bag drying device uses a body member that has a base with upwardly and inwardly tapering side faces and end faces and a wedge shaped body wedge extending upwardly from a top of the base. The base and the body wedge may be monolithic in construction and are made from an appropriate moisture absorbent material, such as sponge or foam. Baggies are placed atop the body wedge and held open by the device and allowed to air dry any moisture within the baggie not already absorbed by the body itself. An optional slot allows two smaller baggies to be fitted over the body wedge. An expander wedge can be placed onto the body wedge in order to accommodate relatively large baggies.

A hanging bag dispenser includes a bag support platform having a surface that contacts a last bag in a vertically supported bag pack. An angled mounting device is attached to the bag support platform to engage a mounting aperture that penetrates each bag in the bag pack. A positioning system is attached to the bag support platform and maintains the bag support platform at a sufficient height to allow the bag pack to extend downwardly from the mounting device. A pivotally mounted bag control arm is mounted to the bag support platform and permits installation of the bag pack on the mounting device when pivoted to a first, loading position and located to rest upon an outermost bag in the bag pack when pivoted to a second, control position. A surrounding control cage is attached to the dispenser to prevent a user from pulling a lower portion of the bag.

A carrier bag has a first side panel (back panel) with a first carrier handle, which may be a first flexible loop, and an opposing second side panel (front panel) with a second carrier handle, which may be a second flexible loop. The first side panel has a first upper edge and a first lower edge as well as two opposite first side edges, wherein the second side panel has a second upper edge and a second lower edge as well as two opposite second side edges. The first and second side panels are connected to each other at or adjacent to the respective first and second side edges to form lateral sides of the bag, or the first and second side panels are connected at the first and second side edges to opposing lateral walls to form lateral sides of the bag. A bottom of the bag is formed by a bottom wall that is connected to the first and second lower edges or by a weld seam or glue seam that joins the first and second lower edges. An opening is formed between the first and second upper edges, wherein the first upper edge has a first distance from the first lower edge and the second upper edge has a second distance from the second lower edge, wherein the first distance is smaller than the second distance. The first upper edge is displaced by a third distance from the second upper edge. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to a rack of bags comprising such carrier bags as well as a method for producing carrier bags and a process of serially dispensing and opening carrier bags.
