Kikkerland Dogs Bag Clips
This set of six dog-shaped bag clips addresses the common pantry challenge of keeping opened food packets fresh and organised. The spring mechanism provides reliable grip to seal bags of crisps, cereals, biscuits, frozen foods, and other dry goods, helping to maintain freshness and prevent spillage. The dog design transforms a purely functional storage accessory into something that adds character to pantry shelves or worktops, appealing to dog lovers and those who appreciate personality in everyday kitchen items.
The ABS plastic construction offers durability for regular kitchen use whilst the compact 4.3cm size works with various bag types without taking up excessive storage space. Having six clips in the set means you can keep multiple opened packets properly sealed - particularly useful for households with several people who open different items throughout the week, or for pet owners managing multiple bags of dog food and treats. The clip design allows for quick, one-handed operation when you need to access food frequently. Key features include:
- Set of 6 clips: Sufficient quantity for multiple open packages in your pantry
- Spring mechanism: Provides reliable grip to seal bags effectively
- Dog design: Adds decorative appeal to functional storage
- ABS plastic construction: Durable material suitable for regular kitchen use
- Compact size: 4.3cm clips work with various bag sizes without bulk
- Versatile application: Suitable for crisps, cereals, frozen foods, pet food, and more
This is designed for households seeking to reduce food waste by keeping opened items fresher for longer, dog enthusiasts who appreciate themed kitchen accessories, or anyone wanting practical storage solutions that also contribute positively to kitchen aesthetics rather than being purely utilitarian.
What Customers Ask About Dogs Bag Clips
How strong are the clips?
The spring mechanism provides sufficient grip for standard food packaging like crisp packets, cereal bags, frozen vegetable bags, and biscuit packets. They work best with lightweight to medium-weight bags. Very heavy bags or thick materials may require stronger clips.
Are all 6 clips the same design or different dogs?
Yes, each bag clip is a different design of dog.
Can I wash these if they get food residue on them?
Wipe clean with a damp cloth to remove crumbs or food residue. The ABS plastic can handle occasional washing with mild soap and water, but dry thoroughly afterwards to prevent any metal spring components from rusting. Avoid dishwashers, which might damage the spring mechanism.
Will the springs rust?
Springs can rust if exposed to prolonged moisture. Keep the clips dry and avoid using them in damp environments. If they get wet during cleaning, dry thoroughly immediately. Store in a dry location rather than in damp cupboards or near sinks.
Are these strong enough for dog food bags?
Yes, these work well for dry dog food bags and similar pet food packaging. Roll down the top of the bag to remove excess air before clipping for the best seal. The clips help maintain freshness by keeping the rolled bag closed between feedings.
Specifications
Care & Use Instructions
Using the clips: For best results, fold or roll the top of the bag down to remove excess air before applying the clip. This creates a tighter seal and helps maintain freshness. Position the clip across the folded section and release - the spring mechanism should hold it securely.
Maximising food freshness: Whilst these clips seal bags effectively, they don't create airtight storage. For items that deteriorate quickly once opened (like ground coffee or pet treats), consider transferring to airtight containers. The clips work best for items consumed within days or weeks of opening.
Cleaning after use: Wipe with a damp cloth to remove crumbs, flour dust, or other food residue that might accumulate. For sticky residue, use a small amount of washing-up liquid on a damp cloth, then wipe clean with fresh water and dry thoroughly immediately.
Preventing rust: The spring mechanism requires protection from moisture to prevent rust. Never leave clips wet after cleaning. If storing in a drawer, ensure the location is dry rather than under the sink or near sources of moisture.
Storage when not in use: Keep spare clips in a dry drawer or container. If you have more clips than regularly needed, rotate them to distribute wear evenly across the set. Check periodically that the spring mechanism still provides good grip.
Checking for wear: Over time, springs may weaken or rust may develop despite best efforts at maintenance. Replace clips when they no longer grip effectively or when rust becomes visible. Having six in the set means you can retire worn clips whilst continuing to use the others.
Organising your pantry: Use the clips to identify different opened items at a glance. The dog design makes them easy to spot on shelves. Dog owners might find it helpful to use these specifically for pet food and treats to distinguish them from human food storage at a glance.
Avoid: Using on bags that are too thick for the clip opening. Forcing clips onto materials they're not designed for, which might damage the spring. Leaving wet after cleaning, which promotes rust. Using in the dishwasher, which might damage both the plastic and the spring mechanism. Storing in damp locations like under sinks.
