Our Printed Cotton Bag Range

Cotton bags are a great option, both as a reusable shopping bag for retailers, and as a premium branded bag for businesses attending events & conferences. When it comes to a stylish, high-quality printed bag, there’s nothing quite like a cotton bag. They look great when printed, the cotton is comfortable & durable, and they’re highly versatile. Due to their reusability, they’re a great bag option for retailers that can be provided as secondary to their plastic bags or paper bags.

What sizes can I get for a cotton bag?

Our fabric bag size guide will run through specifics around the sizes of bags we offer. If you need a specific size, get in touch and our team will do our best to help meet your requirements.

What are the benefits of cotton bags?

A cotton bag is a great shopping bag and event bag option. These bags are made from soft, comfortable and robust materials, making them incredibly strong and very nice to hold. They’re therefore the perfect reusable shopping bag. They’re also very fashionable and look amazing when printed, turning your customers into a walking billboard adorned with your branding and messaging.

Are cotton bags eco-friendly?

Cotton bags are generally considered eco-friendly as they’re highly reusable and therefore provide a good alternative to plastic carrier bags. A cotton shopping bag can also be made from organic cotton, making it even more environmentally friendly.

How durable are cotton bags?

Cotton bags are among the most durable bag you can buy. These bags can last around 10 years and sustain thousands of uses. They’re also machine washable, so if they get dirty, they can be easily cleaned.

Are cotton bags machine washable?

How can I customise a cotton bag?

Cotton bags can be printed on one or both sides, can be printed in any colour, and can be printed with your logo, branding and messaging. If you’d like further customisation options, such as different coloured handles, get in touch with our team and let us know your specific request as we may be able to help.

What products and industries should consider a printed cotton bag?

As an incredibly versatile bag, cotton bags don’t belong in one specific industry, or for any specific product. These bags are used for pretty much any purchase or function, with large options also available, ideal for bigger & heavier items. Cotton bags are incredibly popular as event bags, as small business retail bags, as clothes shopping bags, and generally as an alternative to plastic or paper bags for all retail stores.

Are cotton bags better than plastic bags?

Both cotton and plastic bags have their merit and are suited better to different use cases. While printed plastic bags are inexpensive, better for high-quantity requirements and easy to store, a cotton bag is more reusable, eco-friendly, typically stronger, more comfortable to hold and much more fashionable.

Are there discounts for bulk purchases?

Yes, the more you order, the lower the unit cost for the bag will be. The cost-benefit will flatten out at different quantities depending on the bag you order, typically at 50-100 bags.

Which material is better for a printed fabric bag: Cotton, Jute, Canvas or Non-Woven?

All these bag materials have merit. Cotton bags are comfortable to hold and look fantastic when printed, and they can also be made from organic materials. Jute bags are simple, elegant and natural, and come in large or small configurations. Canvas bags are made from a strong and simple material for fabric bags, perhaps the most common choice for a traditional tote bag. Non-woven bags balance strength, versatility, easy storage and cost-effectiveness to create a bag that’s ideal for those looking for a more simplistic solution.
