Product Introduction
A plastic carrier gets used once and tossed. A kraft bag with your logo gets reused — carried down the street, set on a counter, noticed. Custom paper bags are structured carriers in kraft, white, or colored stock with reinforced handles, gussets, and full-color print — built for retail shops, boutiques, gift packaging, and food service where the bag has to hold up all day.
Most orders come from retail store owners, DTC brands, and event planners. If your product retails above $20, the bag it leaves in should match.

Key Features & Benefits
The paper weight carries the load. Kraft at 100–120 GSM holds 3–5 kg without tearing at the handles — enough for a full retail purchase or a bottle of wine. Laminated art paper at 200+ GSM adds a premium feel that buyers associate with higher-end products. Reinforced rope or twisted handles take repeated carry weight, and a glued bottom gusset lets the bag stand upright on a counter. What the customer walks out with looks deliberate — that matters when your product sells for $25 or more.

Packaging Styles & Customization
Structural Styles
Twisted handle: Standard retail bag. Kraft or art paper, reinforced base, stands upright. The workhorse for boutiques and general retail.
Rope handle: Thicker cotton or poly cord. Heavier feel, built for premium retail and luxury gift packaging where the bag itself is part of the presentation.
Die-cut handle: Punched directly into the paper. Clean look, lower cost, works for lighter items and event giveaways.
Flat ribbon handle: Satin or grosgrain ribbon handles. Common for jewelry, cosmetics, and high-end fashion retail where appearance matters most.
Sizing
Standard runs from 8″ × 4″ × 10″ for small retail up to 16″ × 6″ × 19″ for large shopping bags. Custom sizing works from your product footprint and fill height.
Color & Finish
Pantone PMS matching on offset and flexo runs. Digital short runs get a color proof before production. Add matte or gloss lamination, embossing, foil stamping, or spot UV for shelf presence.

Why Choose Orbix Packaging
Orbix Packaging works with retail brands, boutiques, and wholesale distributors who need bags that hold weight, print cleanly, and arrive on schedule. Design files get reviewed in-house — handle placement, gusset alignment, and color proofing happen before production, not during. MOQs start at 500 units for digital print runs, low enough for a single-location shop, and scale to wholesale volume without a pricing jump. Every order clears pre-press, post-print, and pre-shipment inspection with a report attached.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a high-quality custom paper bag?
Paper weight above 100 GSM, reinforced handles glued under a card strip, sealed bottom gusset, and even ink coverage across the full print area.
What's the minimum order quantity for custom paper bags?
Digital print runs start at 500 units. Flexographic runs start at 1,000. Sample quantities are available before committing to a full production order.
How long does it take to get custom paper bags?
Samples take 5–7 business days. Full production runs 10–15 business days after approval. Rush timelines depend on order size and current capacity.
Custom paper bags vs plastic bags — which should I use?
Paper breathes, prints better, and biodegrades. Plastic traps moisture and limits branding. For retail and food service, paper outperforms on presentation and sustainability.
Twisted handle vs flat handle paper bags — what's the difference?
Twisted handles are standard for general retail — durable and cost-effective. Flat ribbon handles suit premium retail and luxury gifting where appearance matters more.
What does paper bag grammage mean for quality?
Grammage is paper weight in grams per square meter. Higher GSM means thicker, stronger paper. Retail bags typically need 100–170 GSM depending on carry load.
Are eco-friendly custom paper bags available?
Yes. Recycled kraft, unbleached paper, soy-based inks, and FSC-certified stock are all options. Compostable choices work for food service and sustainability-focused brands.
When should I use window paper bags?
Window bags work when the product sells on sight — cookies, candles, or small gifts. The clear panel lets buyers see the product before purchasing.
Custom kraft paper bags vs white paper bags — which should I pick?
Kraft reads natural and earthy — good for organic brands and cafés. White paper gives a cleaner print surface for detailed logos and full-color artwork.
How thick should custom paper bags be?
For lightweight retail items, 100 GSM works. Heavier products or reusable bags need 150–200 GSM with reinforced handles and a sealed bottom gusset.
