Elevate Your Brand With Every Purchase
Custom paper shopping bags turn a simple transaction into a branded experience. Whether your customers are walking out of a boutique, picking up lunch, or leaving a trade show, a well-designed bag keeps your logo visible long after the sale. Teal Packaging produces these bags to your exact specifications with full-color CMYK printing, giving you complete control over artwork, colors, and finishing.
Available in a range of sizes from compact gift bags to large retail carriers, each bag is built to hold up during everyday use. Choose from twisted rope handles, flat paper handles, or die-cut options depending on the look and functionality you need.
Design and Customization Options
Every bag is printed using high-resolution CMYK technology, so gradients, photography, and detailed logos reproduce with clarity. You can print on one or both sides, and add finishing touches that set your packaging apart.
- Matte or gloss lamination for a refined surface feel
- Spot UV coating to highlight specific design elements
- Foil stamping in gold, silver, or custom metallic shades
- Embossing or debossing for tactile branding
- Custom handle styles including ribbon, rope, and twisted paper
Teal Packaging offers free design support, so if you have a rough concept or just a logo file, the team can help you develop a print-ready layout at no extra cost.
Materials and Sustainability
These bags are manufactured from high-quality kraft and art paper, both of which are recyclable and biodegradable. Kraft paper delivers a natural, earthy aesthetic that appeals to eco-conscious shoppers, while coated art paper provides a smooth, bright white surface ideal for vivid full-color printing.
- Kraft paper in white or brown, available in multiple GSM weights
- Coated art paper (C1S or C2S) for premium retail presentation
- FSC-certified stock available on request
- Soy-based inks compatible with recycling streams
Choosing paper over plastic is a simple way to align your packaging with sustainable business practices, and customers increasingly notice and appreciate that choice.
