Custom printed paper bags turn handing over purchases, catalogues or gift sets into a clean branded presentation. They are ideal for stores, showrooms, trade shows, conferences and client or employee packs. Choose promotional paper bags with logo by size, load capacity, handle type and how prominently you want the logo to stand out. For paper bags, it also helps to choose the print according to the colour and surface of the paper so the logo stays legible and the packaging looks neat. Suitable options are outlined in the overview of branding methods. For a consistent package, you can also match paper bags with packaging or other shopping bags.
More about paper bagsHide extended text
A paper bag is often one of the first things a customer picks up after a purchase. When it has the right size, a sturdy base and a well-placed logo, it looks polished and carries your brand further into the office, onto the street and among other event visitors.
Size that holds contents without crushing
Higher paper bags are ideal for catalogues and brochures, keeping documents in shape. For boxes, textiles or gift sets, choose a wider base and more depth so the contents are easy to insert and the bag stands securely.
Paper strength and comfortable carrying
Lighter versions are enough for small items, flyers or a quick handover at an event. Heavier samples, catalogues and corporate gifts need stronger paper, quality folds and handles that do not cut into the hand.
White, coloured or kraft paper bag
A white paper bag lets a colourful logo and finer graphics stand out. Kraft versions look natural and work well with a simple dark motif. A coloured bag, in turn, helps reinforce your corporate style at first glance.
Printing that lets the logo stand out
For paper bags, a clean logo with enough white space often works best. Smaller supporting text is better placed on the side or lower part of the bag so the main motif remains clearly legible while carrying it.
Frequently asked questions about paper bags
How do I choose the right paper bag size?
Base it on the largest item inside and add a little extra room for easy insertion. For documents, focus mainly on height and width.
Which handles are best for corporate gifts?
For presentation packs, twisted or textile handles are a good choice. For everyday retail use, practical flat paper handles are often enough.
Can kraft paper bags also be printed?
Yes, kraft bags work well with a contrasting logo. The cleanest result usually comes from simple graphics without tiny details.
Are paper bags suitable for trade shows?
Yes. They work well for catalogues, samples and smaller gifts that visitors can carry around the venue and beyond the event.
