Paper Bag Printing


Paper bag is slowly turning from a mere necessity to a brand fashion statement. Only 20 years back, there used to be only polythene bags of varying sizes used for even packing expensive items. Paper bags were limited those days with hardly 1 or 2 color screen printing.

Few used to paste the logo or simply stamp their contact details on ready made paper bags. These days not only modern retail stores like Adidas, Reebok, W, Titan etc but also small retail stores uses these branded paper bags.

Discount stores like Reliance Fresh, Big bazaar, Spar etc charges you nominal Rs 2/- to Rs 5/- depending upon the bag size which are mainly non woven or plastic branded bags.

Paper bags are used instead of non woven, woven or plastic bags where the material to be carried is not too bulky. Print quality is same on all bags these days with woven bag having slightly inferior print in comparison.

Paper options for paper bags

There are various type and grade of paper which we can use for printing paper bags. Depending upon the budget, size and strength required there can be different options. We have listed below some of the most commonly used paper:-

Kraft paper:

Kraft paper is undoubtedly first choice. It comes in mainly 2 colors white and brown. It is preferred choice thanks to its high print absorption quality and strength. Kraft paper it seems is manufactured mainly for transporting tough materials like banner in roll format. There are different thickness available you can go with 250 gsm or above for best quality.

Ivory board paper bags:

The ivory board is a thicker and crispier alternative to the art paper. Art paper is used for printing business cards and brochures. Ivory board is also more expensive than the art paper. It comes only in matt finish. Gloss finish is not available, which you can attain by going for gloss lamination on ivory paper.

Art paper:

It comes in both gloss and matt finish. For paper bags we recommend going with 300 gsm and above. It is safe to go with 300 gsm art paper with matt lamination. It will be thick enough to sustain 7-10 kg of weight.

Duplex board:

Duplex board are seldom seen these days. As such a thick board requirement is hardly there in any retail outlet. Also though the cost is less than art paper but printing good creative is always a challenge on these duplex board. As these board don't absorb color that well.
