FAQ
The questions overseas buyers ask us most often.
What is the MOQ for printed paper bags?
1000 pieces per size and design. Larger quantities lower the unit price considerably, since the plate and set-up cost is spread over more bags.
Which paper should I choose?
Brown kraft is the eco choice and needs no lamination to look right. White kraft or art paper is better for full-colour artwork and photography. Tell us the load and the look and we will recommend a grammage.
How much weight can the bag carry?
It depends on the paper weight and handle. We test the handle pull strength on each batch and can add a cardboard reinforcement at the top and bottom for heavy products such as wine bottles.
Can I print inside the bag as well?
Yes. Inside printing is common for brand stories and is done in the same pass.
Are your bags recyclable or FSC certified?
Kraft and uncoated paper bags are recyclable. FSC certified paper is available on request and we can provide the certificate number for your records.
Do you ship bags flat?
Yes, bags are packed flat to save volume. Assembled bags take roughly three times the shipping volume, so flat packing normally saves 40 - 60% of the freight cost.
Other printing we do
Most overseas customers run several items at once - a book, a catalog and a set of bags often ship in the same container.
Need a price for your paper bags?
Send size, paper, inner pages and quantity - we quote within 24 hours on working days.
