Are the bags *real* 'made in the USA' brand name Dupont mylar? Or are they Chinese knock offs?

Hello yes the bag states Usa. They are expensive but my dogs love them and they are very picky French bulldogs ;))

They are not labeled - maybe the original package was. I'm sure they were made in Taiwan or China. They are a great product. If you limit yourself to USA made items, you are really limiting what you can buy. I try to buy USA, but it's often impossible.

I'm sorry! I threw away the packaging. I wish I could answer this for you. The package looked real (not like a knock off) so I'd think they are made wherever the real nylabones are made

The box says that the bags are made in the USA by Reynolds. There is no marking on the box saying "PBA Free".

I looked at the packaging on this order. It does say "Weston", but it also says "Made in China". I have used these bags for several years and they are heavy and of good quality. I love them, no matter where they are made.

Sure, I am happy to. There is a popular misconception that there is one Mylar film and the thicker, the better. Actually, there are many kinds of Mylar films which consist of layers of different materials that serve different purposes. Mylar itself is a transparent member of the polyester family that is remarkably strong. The Mylar in this film has a bursting strength of 69 pounds per square inch so it can withstand a lot of abuse. In order to make the film a protective barrier to oxygen, a foil layer is added. (oxygen cannot go through glass or metal) This foil layer can be disturbed by folding, moving or filling the bag and you can sometimes see a scratch or a separation during regular use but these are not holes in the film and do not significantly effect the performance of the bag. Mylar bags from Pack Fresh are made here in Southern California and have never been shipped until you buy them. That is how we can afford to compete with the other discount "mylar" that comes from China. There are some enlightening Washington Post articles that should make it clear why American-made products such as those from Pack Fresh are superior. Have a great day and please let us know if you have further questions.

I believe this bag was made in Germany and sold through Ireland. There was no "made in China" tag. I possibly could be mistaken, but I just inspected it.

The bag does not indicate a country of origin, but in researching them on the internet, they seem to be an Illinois-based company. Hope that helps...

Knockoff of what? K-Swiss? Maybe...Notice the spelling of the product; "American Shiled" ...Do the math- that being said, its a very good bag.

My Hefty Baggies are "Made in USA". I don't see any "PBA Free" marking on the box.

That I didn't see noted on the ads. Usually there's a notation of "make in China" etc. None I saw. Since they're made pretty good I think they're USA...but I honestly don't know.

My bags are VACSTRIP BAGS by VACMASTER #94300. Mine states "made in China" on the box. I do not know about item #944300.

The tags on the Hagerty bags say "Made in USA" with the picture of the American flag. Also, I have had my silver items in the bags since last Christmas, and none of the pieces have tarnished. I am very pleased with the bags. Hope this helps.

No they are not. I saved the cardboard tag on the retangular one and it definitely says the product is "MADE IN CHINA". The manufacturer is listed as Interdesign, Inc., P.O. Box 44139, Solon, Ohio 44139 USA, and their web site is www.interdesignusa.com. As I mentioned in my review, the dimensions of the one I received were not quite as described. Perhaps it has been corrected by now. My rectangular one I received measures 3-1/8 X 4-3/4 inches. Hope this helps.

They say Oreck on the package and on the bags. They are high quality. I believe they are the real deal. I'm on my second package of them and will continue to order them.
