White Card Paper
Smooth, clean, and bright white surface. It offers good stiffness and excellent printability, making it suitable for premium paper bags, boxes, hang tags, and retail packaging.
Custom printed paper bags can be made in any size, shape, colour, and design to match your brand. We offer common materials such as kraft paper, white card, coated paper, art paper, and recycled paper, with options for different handles and finishes.
For brands with sustainability requirements, FSC-certified paper and recycled materials can be arranged where needed, helping create packaging that is practical, attractive, and more environmentally responsible.
Custom Packaging Pricing
The final price of custom printed paper bags depends on several factors, including structural design, size, paper selection, surface finishing, and order quantity. The examples below show pricing for three common sizes to help you estimate your project cost. Unlike many offset printing companies that set a 1,000-piece minimum order quantity, our MOQ starts from only 500 pieces.

Custom printed paper bags have many advantages over plain paper or plastic alternatives. A well-designed custom bag becomes a part of the product asset.
Paper bags can be fully customised to match different brand styles, including size, colour, handle type, printing design and surface finish.
They help improve the overall presentation of a product, making the packaging look more professional, refined and suitable for retail or gifting.
Paper bags are widely recyclable and can support a more environmentally responsible packaging choice compared with many plastic alternatives.
They are suitable for many industries, including fashion, jewellery, cosmetics, food, gifts, lifestyle products and event packaging.
The handle design makes them convenient for customers to carry, especially for retail shopping, takeaway products or gift purchases.
A well-designed paper bag can continue to promote the brand after purchase, as customers may reuse it and expose the logo or design to more people.
These are just a few of the advantages of custom printed paper bags. We can help you design and print unique custom paper bags tailored to your specific needs.
Here are the main materials used for paper shopping bags.
Smooth, clean, and bright white surface. It offers good stiffness and excellent printability, making it suitable for premium paper bags, boxes, hang tags, and retail packaging.
Natural brown appearance with a strong eco-friendly feel. It is durable, recyclable, and ideal for simple, organic, handmade, food, coffee, and lifestyle packaging.
Features a fine tactile surface with a more refined and premium look. It adds depth and elegance to packaging, especially for gifts, jewellery, cosmetics, and boutique brands.
Made with recycled fibre, often showing natural speckles and visible paper texture. It supports sustainable branding and is suitable for eco-conscious packaging projects.
Coated on both sides with a smooth surface and strong colour performance. It is ideal for high-quality printing, vivid graphics, and refined retail packaging.
Combines the natural strength of kraft paper with a clean white appearance. It is lighter and more understated than white card paper, suitable for simple, eco-friendly, and modern packaging.
Paper rope handles are an eco-friendly option, commonly used for kraft paper bags, food bags, and sustainable packaging. They create a natural and simple look, suitable for brands that want to highlight environmental values.
Cotton rope handles are soft to the touch and offer good carrying strength. They are one of the most common handle options for paper bags and are suitable for clothing, gifts, and retail shopping bags.
PP or nylon rope handles are strong, durable, and cost-effective. They are suitable for paper bags that require better load-bearing performance, such as fashion bags, shoe packaging bags, and exhibition bags.
Satin ribbon handles give the bag a more refined and premium appearance. They are often used for jewellery, perfume, cosmetics, boutique gift bags, and high-end fashion packaging.
Three-strand rope handles have a more dimensional and textured appearance than standard round rope. They are suitable for mid-to-high-end paper bags, especially gift bags and branded shopping bags.
Flat cotton tape handles are wider than round rope handles, making them more comfortable to carry. They are suitable for larger or heavier paper bags, such as clothing bags, shoe bags, and gift box bags.
Matte lamination gives your printed bags a more subtle finish than gloss. It also softens the colors, which can be the perfect effect for certain products.
An especially resilient type of matte lamination to reduce the impact of scuffs, scratches, and general wear-and-tear.
Gloss lamination adds a shiny, smooth surface that enhances the vibrancy and color of the printed bag.
An especially resilient type of gloss lamination to reduce the impact of scuffs, scratches, and general wear-and-tear.
Foil stamping adds a metallic effect to lettering or other design elements. Gold, silver and bronze are the most popular choices, but we have a vast range of colored foils from which you may choose.
Embossing raises the surface of an area of the bag to make it literally stand out. This can highlight your brand name, for example, or your logo.
Like embossing, only the surface is pressed inward to creative a concave impression rather than standing out. For this, you’ll need a more rigid bag structure made of paper with a weight of at least 250 gsm.
You can highlight a specific area with spot-UV coating. We apply a clear polymer coat to the specified area — which could be a product name, a logo, or an image — which really makes it “pop” and catch the eye. Suitable only for surfaces already treated with matte or soft-touch lamination.
Whether you need packaging, PVC printing products, patch-related printing support or a fully custom order, we are happy to discuss your requirements.
