Custom Paper Bags 300gsm Black Luxury Gold Foil with Ribbon

A retail carrier bag made from art paper, kraft paper, ivory board, duplex board or specialty paper in weights from 100gsm to 450gsm, with 300gsm the usual choice for a black luxury bag. The sheet is screen, offset or flexo printed in CMYK or Pantone, laminated glossy or matte, then hot foil stamped, embossed, debossed or spot UV coated before the bag is formed and the handle fitted. Handle options run from ribbon to PP rope and cotton cord. It is bought by apparel, footwear, jewellery and gift retailers who need the bag to survive the walk home and still read as part of the brand.

Key Benefits

What This Product Gives You

  • Paper weight is selectable from 100gsm to 450gsm, so a jewellery bag and a shoe bag can share artwork but not carry the same board cost
  • Gold or silver hot foil on a laminated black face gives contrast that process ink alone cannot reach on dark stock
  • Pantone printing holds a brand colour steady across repeat runs rather than rebuilding it from CMYK each time
  • Ribbon, PP rope and cotton handle options let the handle be matched to the weight the bag actually carries
  • Recycled material construction keeps the bag acceptable to retailers with packaging policies
  • Any size is made to your request, so an awkward product no longer forces an oversized stock bag

What Goes Wrong Without It

Comparison

Compared With the Alternatives

AlternativeHow This Compares
Plastic carrier bagPaper takes foil, embossing and offset print that plastic cannot, though a plastic bag handles rain without any lamination
Cotton or canvas toteThe paper bag costs far less per unit for a store handout, while a tote is reused for years and keeps the logo in circulation
Kraft bag with twisted paper handleA ribbon handle on 300gsm board reads as gift packaging, but the twisted paper handle version is cheaper and fully paper for recycling
Use Guide

Getting the Best Result

  • Give the largest product the bag has to hold so width, gusset and height are set from the item, not guessed
  • Choose 250gsm to 300gsm for a bag that must look rigid when standing empty on a counter
  • Specify Pantone references where the bag sits next to existing packaging
  • Keep foil artwork as solid shapes rather than fine hairlines, which lift poorly from a laminated face
  • Send artwork as PDF, AI, PSD or JPEG at 300dpi with fonts converted to outlines
  • Order a sample before the bulk run so handle length and bag proportion can be checked with the real product inside
Answers

Custom Paper Bags 300gsm Black Luxury Gold Foil with Ribbon FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity?

500 pcs. Below that a custom die and foil block cannot be amortised sensibly across the run.

Which paper weight should I choose?

Lighter weights around 100gsm to 175gsm suit small light items; 250gsm to 300gsm is the usual choice for a bag that must stand up on its own and carry clothing or shoes.

How quickly can I see a sample?

Digital samples and small quantities run in 1-2 working days. Stock samples are free and a custom sample cost is refunded once the bulk order is confirmed.

Can you match my brand colour exactly?

Yes, printing runs in CMYK or Pantone. Give the Pantone reference and it is run as a spot colour rather than built from process ink.

What handle options are available?

Ribbon handle, PP rope handle and cotton handle, each selectable in a colour to match or contrast with the bag.

What artwork format do you accept?

PDF, AI, PSD and JPEG at 300dpi minimum, with all fonts saved as outlines.

How long does shipping take?

Express or air shipping runs 3-4 working days and sea shipping 15-18 days from dispatch.
