Elastic Bands

Elastic bands are small stretchy loops that hold things together, such as open bags, papers, stationery and bundles around the home. They are a simple everyday item, and a kitchen drawer or pantry shelf often runs out of them faster than expected.

Everyday Uses for Elastic Bands

Elastic bands help in the kitchen as much as they do in the office. The list below covers the most common jobs.

  • Closing a part-used bag of rice, lentils, flour or nuts after folding the top over
  • Holding a bunch of fresh herbs or spring onions together
  • Bundling cinnamon sticks, dried chillies or bay leaves for gifting or storing
  • Keeping recipe cards or cookbook pages together
  • Grouping pens, cables, letters and parcels
  • Holding a wrap or piece of baking paper around a jar lid or tin

How to Use Elastic Bands Around Food Bags

Elastic bands work best on the outside of a folded bag. Squeeze the air out, fold the top down two or three times, then loop the band around the fold. Two loops give a snugger hold on a thick or full bag.

Place the band on the outside of the bag or wrap. Do not put it directly onto food.

Why Keep a Supply of Elastic Bands at Home

A multipack of elastic bands means you always have one to hand. Pantry bags, school papers, craft projects and posting jobs all use them up. A good stock suits busy households, home cooks who buy dry goods in bulk, and anyone who likes things tidy.

Elastic Bands FAQ

Can I use elastic bands to close food bags?

Yes, they are a handy way to hold a folded bag shut. Fold the top over first, then wrap the band around the outside so it does not touch the food.

How do I stop elastic bands snapping?

Avoid stretching a band much further than the job needs. Looping it twice around a larger bundle puts less strain on a single band than one tight stretch.

Add elastic bands to your basket for the next time you need to tidy a pantry bag or tie up a bundle.

Disclaimer

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods. Nothing in this notice is intended to exclude, restrict or limit any statutory rights you may have under applicable UK consumer law.
