Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.) / Plastic bags
Spanish term or phrase: bolsas de sección
I'm translating the website of a plastics manufacturer, and they produce a wide range of plastic bags. Some of the categories include rubbish bags, paper bags, bags with different kinds of handles (t-shirt, loop, die-cut, etc.). One of the sections is "bolsas de sección" and I'm at a loss. There is very little information given, mostly just a list of products within this category, which include "bolsas sección en rollo", "bolsas sección con bloc", etc.

This is Peninsular Spanish, in case it helps. It seems to be a standard plastic bag (no special features are mentioned), but I really don't know what it means.

agree  philgoddard: "Section bags" also gets some hits. To make it really clear, you could say "produce section bags".

agree  Alberto Gómez Herrera: Agree with this. Term refers to small bags that you can use to "section" a group of items, that is, like the little bags you use in supermarkets to put fruits separatedly and not together. "Produce section bag" is a term I've heard before for this.
