Disclosed herein is a self-opening bag pack comprising a plurality of bags comprising or obtainable from a polymer composition comprising an effective amount of medium density polyethylene. Each of the bags may include a front wall, a rear wall, a bottom portion integrally connected with both the front wall and the rear wall, and a bag mouth opposed to the bottom portion, wherein the front and rear walls being integrally joined at their sides; and at least a portion of the outer surface of the front and rear walls of each of the bags having been surface-treated. The process of making the self-opening bag pack is also disclosed.
