Fabric weight decides the feel, strength and price. Start with who will use the bag and for how long.
Light, natural and affordable. A one or two colour screen print stands out and the bag is reused for shopping.
Heavy canvas holds books and groceries and keeps its shape; a perfect premium gift with a long life.
Cord closure and two shoulder cords make a light bag for PE kits, trips and events.
Cotton is the classic reusable bag material: soft, washable and strong when woven properly. A printed cotton bag is kept and used far longer than a paper or plastic carrier, so your logo gets seen at the market, the gym and the office for months or years.
The right fabric depends on the job. Lightweight calico (about 100–160 gsm) is ideal for event giveaways. Mid-weight cotton (about 180–250 gsm) suits shopping and promotions. Heavy canvas (about 280–400 gsm) gives a structured, premium tote. Organic cotton is available for brands that want certified-style sustainability messaging; please ask us for supplier documents before making certification claims.

Calico is a lighter, plain-weave cotton (about 100–180 gsm) that is economical and ideal for giveaways. Canvas is a heavier, tightly woven cotton (about 280–400 gsm) that is stronger and keeps its shape, which makes it a premium option for shopping and gifting.
Screen printing is best for bold logos and larger quantities and is durable and washable. DTF or heat transfer is best for detailed full-colour artwork. Embroidery gives a premium stitched finish on logos and small text.
A cotton bag is made to be reused hundreds of times, so its impact per use falls the more it is used. It is a long-lasting alternative to single-use plastic bags. The best environmental result comes from using the bag as often as possible.
Organic cotton bags can be sourced on request. If you plan to make a certification claim such as GOTS, ask us for supplier documentation first so that your marketing wording matches the supplied certificates.
A common tote size is about 38 x 42 cm. Use 120–160 gsm calico for light giveaways, 180–250 gsm for shopping and promotions, and 280–340 gsm canvas for heavier loads such as books. Tell us what the bag will carry and we will recommend a specification.
Yes. Screen printed and embroidered cotton bags can usually be machine washed on a gentle cycle, inside out, and air dried. Heat-transfer prints should be washed at low temperature. Natural cotton may shrink slightly on first wash.
Minimums depend on the fabric, style and print method. Screen printing is most economical for medium and large runs, while DTF and embroidery suit smaller runs. Share your needs and we will confirm options and pricing at the quote stage.
Production time depends on the bag style, fabric, print method and quantity. We confirm turnaround at the quote stage and after proof approval, and can advise on event and conference deadlines.
