Product Details

A paper carrier is the last piece of packaging a retail customer touches, and the part most likely to be reused. The panel is printed paper; what decides whether the bag survives the walk home is the base reinforcement and how the handle is anchored.

We build bags with a reinforced base card and turned-over top edge, with handles in twisted paper, cotton tape or rope depending on the load and the look. Bag footprint is set from the boxes it has to carry, so the pack sits flat rather than tipping.

Customization Options

  • Bag width, depth and height set from the product carried
  • Handle: twisted paper, cotton tape, cotton rope or die-cut
  • Paper type and colour, including uncoated recycled kraft
  • Base card weight and gusset style
  • Full-colour printing, foil stamping and embossing
  • Matte, gloss or water-based soft-touch finish

Custom Paper Shopping Bags FAQ

Which handle should I choose?
Twisted paper, cotton tape and cotton rope are all available. The choice is driven by the load the bag has to carry and how premium the range needs to look.
What stops the bag failing at the base?
A reinforced base card and a turned-over top edge. Handle anchoring and base reinforcement, not paper weight, are what decide whether a carrier survives being reused.
Can the bag be made without plastic?
Yes. A build using only paper and cotton components is available, with no plastic laminate required.
