To get the most out of your custom paper bags, we recommend you do the following:
- Avoid using saturated, vivid colours on brown kraft paper bags as they won’t come up as well. If you want to use vivid colours, we recommend white kraft paper.
- Ensure your designs have a transparent background for a clean, seamless finish.
- When designing luxury gift bags, opt for solid colours.
We don’t currently offer paper bag samples as such, but you can order our free business sample kit which includes our standard kraft paper bag (together with many other top marketing materials).
