Who uses them

Retail

Carry bags for shops and boutiques, usually printed with the shop’s own branding.

Food and bakery

Plain and printed bags for takeaway, bakery and grocery use.

Pharmaceutical

Dispensing and counter bags, typically plain or single-colour.

Printing

Bags are printed per colour, so a single-colour shop name is cheaper to run than full artwork. Send us the artwork and the number of colours with your enquiry, and we will price printed and plain side by side.

Specifying a bag

Three things decide the price: the finished size, the weight of the paper, and whether it is printed. Paper weight is given in GSM — grams per square metre — and a higher figure means a stiffer bag that carries more.

If you are not sure what weight you need, tell us what the bag will hold and roughly how heavy that is, and we will suggest one.

Common questions

What does GSM mean on a paper bag?

GSM is grams per square metre — the weight of the paper. A higher figure means thicker, stiffer paper that carries more without tearing. Light bags are used for small counter items, heavier paper for retail carriers that hold several kilos.

What is the difference between kraft and white paper bags?

Kraft is the unbleached brown paper most people picture; it is strong and usually the cheaper option. White paper is bleached, giving a cleaner surface for printing, and is often chosen where the bag is part of the branding.

What do you need in order to quote paper bags?

The finished size, roughly what the bag will carry and how heavy that is, the quantity, whether you want handles, and whether it should be printed. If you have artwork, tell us how many colours it uses.

Can bags be printed with our logo?

Yes. Send the artwork and the number of colours, and we will quote printed and plain so you can compare the difference.
