Abstract

See full text

A flexible folding bag having a hold-open top to facilitate easy loading of the bag. The hold-open top is formed on the top edge of the bag from a plurality of top flaps connected to top edges of the bag sidewalls. The top flaps are adapted to be folded inwardly by a user to form one or more cuffs within said opening for maintaining the bag in a maximally open position. The cuffs hold the bag open by applying outward pressure on gusseted sidewalls of two opposing width panels and/or by applying outward pressure on the corners of the bag. In addition to holding the bag in an open position, the cuffs cause the top opening of the bag to be tear-resistant.
