Materials and GSM Specifications
Material weight directly impacts paper bag durability, appearance, and perceived value.
Our custom branded paper bags are available in various GSM options to match different usage requirements and budget considerations. Understanding these specifications helps you select the optimal weight for your needs.
Our 150gsm kraft paper provides lightweight durability suitable for small retail items and grocery products. This economical option offers adequate strength for single-use shopping while maintaining environmental credentials. The natural kraft appearance provides rustic, eco-friendly aesthetic appeal.
The 200gsm to 250gsm range delivers enhanced durability and premium feel. These weights are ideal for boutique retail, gift shops, and premium stores where customers expect more substantial packaging. The additional thickness provides better structural integrity and extended usability.
For luxury positioning, our 300gsm and above options deliver exceptional quality and durability. These premium weights are perfect for high-end boutiques, jewelry stores, and luxury goods retailers. The substantial feel communicates quality and creates memorable unboxing experiences.
All materials are FSC-certified and printed with soy-based inks. This ensures your branded paper bags are as environmentally responsible as they are visually appealing. The bags are fully recyclable and compostable at end of life.

Sustainability Commitment
Environmental responsibility is central to Teal Packaging's mission.
Our custom branded paper bags are designed with sustainability at every stage, from material sourcing to end-of-life disposal. Choosing eco-friendly packaging demonstrates your brand's values to increasingly environmentally conscious consumers.
FSC certification guarantees that all paper materials come from responsibly managed forests. This international certification ensures forests are protected, wildlife habitats are preserved, and forest workers receive fair treatment. When you choose FSC-certified bags, you support sustainable forestry worldwide.
Soy-based inks represent a significant environmental improvement over conventional petroleum inks. Derived from renewable soybeans, these inks produce dramatically fewer harmful emissions during production. They are also more easily removed during paper recycling, resulting in cleaner recycled materials.
Our paper bags are fully recyclable and compostable. After serving their purpose, they can be processed through standard paper recycling streams or composted in appropriate facilities.
This complete lifecycle sustainability helps reduce waste and supports circular economy principles.
