Custom Printed Twisted Handle Paper Bags

A paper carrier bag with a twisted handle is the go-to choice for a range of businesses- from high-end retail to farm shops and small businesses. They boast a whole range of benefits, such as eco-friendliness, value for money, flexible branding options, and they’re also a cheaper alternative to a luxury kraft bag.

Twisted handle paper bags are sturdy, multi-purpose, and highly practical, meaning they're great shopping bags for retailers. These stylish kraft bags can be fully printed to reflect your brand's unique personality - anything from a straightforward logo to a full-colour, custom design, all without compromising on the quality and integrity of the bag.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order quantity?

We can provide printed twisted handle paper bags at quantities as low as 100, however at quantities lower than 1000, we can only run single-colour prints, and you're severely limited on the size of bag you can choose. The minimum order for multi-colour prints is 1000 bags.

What is the estimated delivery time?

On average it takes around 3 weeks for us to manufacture, print and deliver your bags once your order goes through. Depending on quantities and requirements we can ensure a quicker turnaround. We will be able to confirm lead times with you before you order so you know how long delivery will take. If you need your bags by a deadline, we are the only UK carrier bag supplier that can accommodate any specific delivery turnarounds or requirements, so please call or email us as soon as possible.

What size can I get a Twisted Handle Paper Bag in?

We have a comprehensive paper bag size guide that shows all the regular sizes in which we can produce twisted handle paper bags. For orders over 10,000 bags, we can make your paper bags to whatever size you’d like.

What is the benefit of a twisted handle paper bag?

Aside from their sturdiness, practicality, versatility and elegant stylishness, a twisted handle paper bag is an ideal eco-friendly shopping or event bag option that has a range of beautiful printing options. A twisted handle paper bag is also highly cost-effective, easy to store, and can come in a range of sizes.

Are printed paper bags recyclable?

All our printed paper bags are made from recyclable materials, meaning your customers can easily recycle them at home.

Are printed paper bags biodegradable?

Printed paper bags are biodegradable but will take longer to disintegrate than something like a potato starch bag, so we always recommend getting people to recycle and reuse their bags to get the most out of them.

Can twisted handle paper bags be reused?

Yes, twisted handle paper bags can be reused and this should be encouraged. However, these bags are also recyclable at home, meaning even when not reused, these bags remain eco-friendly.

Are the handles attached to the inside or the outside of the bag?

The handles of a twisted handle paper bag are attached to the inside of the bag.

Are twisted handle paper bags water resistant?

Twisted handle paper bags are not water resistant.

How strong are twisted handle paper bags?

Twisted handle paper bags are very robust, meaning they can carry heavy items and are not susceptible to breakage under everyday use. However, if placed under too much stress, the paper could tear, though this will not happen easily. Further, the paper is not waterproof.

Which products & industries should use a Twisted Handle Paper Bag?

Twisted handle paper bags are completely versatile, meaning they’re appropriate for most industries and a range of products. Typically, these bags are popular as retail bags or event goodie bags and are particularly well known as fashion bags. However, as they can be made in a range of sizes and shapes and are very robust, they’re great for most purposes.

Are printed paper bags made from recycled materials?

Not all printed paper bags are made from recycled materials. It’s typically cheaper for manufacturers to produce bags from new materials, meaning for lower quantities we cannot guarantee that bags will be made from 100% recycled materials. For orders over 10,000, we can guarantee that your bags are made from 100% recycled paper if necessary.
