Overview
ISO 8367-1:1993 is an international standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that specifies the dimensional tolerances for general purpose paper sacks. This part of ISO 8367 focuses exclusively on paper sacks, providing manufacturers and users with clear guidelines to ensure uniformity and quality in sack production. The standard defines acceptable tolerances for critical dimensions such as ply grammage, sack length and width, gusset width, circumference with gussets, bottom width, valve width and position, as well as print placement.
By adhering to ISO 8367-1, packaging manufacturers can ensure their paper sacks meet consistent size and quality requirements, facilitating better performance, compatibility, and customer satisfaction in logistics and storage.
Key Topics
Scope and Application
ISO 8367-1 applies to the dimensional tolerances of paper sacks as described in ISO 6590-1. It covers sacks intended for general purpose packaging, ensuring the sacks' dimensions fall within standardized limits.Dimensions Covered and Tolerances
The standard specifies precise tolerances for various sacks' dimensions, including:- Ply grammage: ±4%
- Length of sack: ±10 mm
- Width of sack: ±5 mm
- Width of gusset: ±5 mm
- Sack circumference with gussets: ±10 mm
- Width of bottom: ±5 mm
- Width of valve: +5 mm
- Valve collar and sewn valve: 0 mm tolerance
- Position of leading edge of valve sleeve: ±5 mm
- Print position longitudinally: ±20 mm
- Print position transversely: ±15 mm
Measurement and Sampling Methods
Measurements must be taken according to ISO 6591-1, and sampling is performed per ISO 7023 to ensure batches delivered for quality control comply systematically with the defined tolerances.Quality Control and Agreements
If tighter tolerances than those specified are required, agreements between buyer and supplier should be established to meet specific product needs.
Applications
Paper Sack Manufacturing
Manufacturers use ISO 8367-1 to design and produce paper sacks with consistent dimensions, which improves stacking, filling efficiency, and durability.Quality Assurance in Packaging
Quality control departments rely on this standard to sample and verify sack dimensions, ensuring compliance with contractual and regulatory requirements.Logistics and Storage
Standardized sack sizes and tolerances allow for optimized palletizing, storage, and transportation, reducing damages caused by improper sizing.Printing and Branding
The defined tolerances for print positioning guarantee consistent logo and label placement, which is crucial for brand visibility and regulatory labeling.
Related Standards

Benefits of Implementing ISO 8367-1
- Ensures consistency in sack sizes across producers and batches
- Supports product quality and performance in packaging applications
- Facilitates international trade by meeting globally recognized tolerances
- Enhances customer confidence and satisfaction via reliable product specifications
- Enables efficient manufacturing and inventory management through standard dimensions

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 8367-l was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/lC 122, Packaging, Sub-Committee SC 2, Sacks.
IS0 8367 consists of the following parts, under the ge neral title Packaging
