Kraft paper bag

A twisted-handle kraft bag, printed in up to six flexo colours, sized to what goes in it.

The photographs are jobs printed at MRT. Paper, size and print are made to your job.

A bag is written width × gusset × height, and the measuring starts with what goes inside rather than with the bag. Width is the widest item plus 1–2 cm; height should be 3–4 cm more than the contents; the gusset is the depth of what it carries.

Printing is flexographic, up to six colours. Each colour is a separate plate, so a first order carries a one-off plate cost and a repeat order comes out noticeably cheaper per unit. The face, the gusset and the handle can each be a different colour.

Twisted handles only. Narrow paper strips twisted into a round handle: it suits kraft paper, and it looks the same at every size. We do not make flat handles or die-cut handles.
