Gift bags custom-sized to contents: 300gsm white card, leather-textured or specialty paper; full-colour, gold ink, foil stamping, embossing and handle options. For corporate gifts, festive sets or retail; provide size, quantity and lead time for a quote.
First match the gift paper bag to the size and weight of its contents and the occasion, then decide on the paper stock, printing and rope handles. 300gsm white card is suitable for corporate gifts, retail packaging and event giveaways; choose leather-textured or other specialty paper for a more tactile finish. A logo can also be enhanced with metallic gold ink, gold foil stamping, embossing or spot UV. Provide the size, quantity, contents and delivery date to confirm the structure and quotation more quickly.
Start with 300gsm white card and keep the design simple, then highlight the logo with metallic gold ink or gold foil stamping. It works readily with different brand colours and makes the budget easier to control.
Choose leather-textured or other specialty paper, paired with gold foil stamping, embossing or ribbon handles. More finishes are not necessarily better; the paper stock, colour and logo position need to work together.
Use full-colour printing on white card, adding matte lamination, gloss lamination or spot UV as needed. If the bags will be handled frequently or need greater abrasion resistance, prioritise a protective surface finish.
| Item | Available options | Information to prepare before enquiring |
|---|---|---|
| Size W×D×H |
W = bag face width, D = side-gusset depth, and H = bag height; customisable to suit the contents. | Provide the length, width and height of the contents and how they will be placed in the bag, rather than only the bag's external dimensions. |
| Use and load capacity Determine the structure first |
Gift boxes, clothing, documents, glass bottles and food sets all require different side gussets, bases and handle strengths. | Provide a photo of the contents, the weight of each item and the number placed in each bag so the structure and any reinforcement needed around the holes can be assessed. |
| Paper stock Common choices |
300gsm white card is stiffer and versatile; leather-textured or other specialty paper focuses on tactile feel and appearance. For larger paper bags, thicker stock is required.1 | Choose white card first to control the budget; to emphasise the paper texture, provide the brand style or reference images so a suitable stock can be selected. |
| Printing area Exterior / interior and exterior |
Depending on the design, choose full-colour printing on the exterior or printing on both the interior and exterior. Interior printing affects the cost and production arrangements. | State whether the inside of the bag needs a brand colour, graphics or text; do not simply write "double-sided printing". |
| Surface finishes Protection & appearance |
Choose matte lamination, gloss lamination or spot UV as needed. Lamination primarily affects reflectivity, feel and abrasion resistance. | Matte lamination is more understated; gloss lamination is brighter; spot UV suits a logo or selected graphic and is not recommended indiscriminately over a large area. |
| Gold and embossed finishes Brand focal point |
Choose metallic gold ink, gold foil stamping, debossing or embossing. Metallic gold ink is a printed effect, while gold foil stamping has a more pronounced metallic reflection. | First decide the position and area of the finish. A logo, brand lettering or border is usually easier to control and gives a more enduring appearance. |
| Rope handles Feel in the hand |
Common choices include three-strand rope, cotton rope and ribbon, which can be matched to the bag colour, intended use and load capacity. | Provide the preferred rope colour and handle orientation; heavy contents or large bags also require consideration of reinforcement around the holes and at the base. |
| Quantity, number of designs & lead time Affect the quotation |
Several designs can be produced in the same size, but the quantity split, finishes and delivery date all affect the unit price. | Provide the total quantity, quantity per design, delivery location and preferred delivery date so everything can be confirmed at once. |
Paper bags have fold lines, base folds and handle holes, so the design cannot be judged by the front alone. Use the actual dieline before designing to prevent the logo, text or finishing areas from overlapping fold lines or holes.
White card works readily with full-colour printing and suits designs with more information or requiring consistent brand colours. Specialty paper emphasises its own texture, so the design usually needs to be simpler to avoid overpowering the tactile quality.
Metallic gold ink is a printed colour with a metallic quality, suitable for larger areas or finer graphics; gold foil stamping is more reflective and suits logos, brand lettering and small focal areas.
Three-strand rope has a neat appearance, cotton rope feels softer, and ribbon has a more gift-like quality. Besides colour, choose the rope, hole positions and any reinforcement according to the weight of the contents.
If the finishing areas, fold lines or QR code safe margin have not been confirmed, send the artwork for checking before placing the final order.
