Print Near Me prints custom kraft paper bags in Abu Dhabi: brown or white kraft carrier bags with twisted, flat or die-cut handles, SOS flat-bottom food bags, takeaway bags, bakery window bags and bottle bags. Logos are applied by flexo printing, screen printing, hot foil stamping or stickers. Kraft is a strong, recyclable paper, ideal for food service, retail and eco-conscious brands. Artwork proof is free, and bulk orders are delivered across Abu Dhabi and the UAE.
Start with how the bag will be used. The handle and bottom shape matter more than the print.
Flat-bottom bags without handles are fast to pack and stack. A clear window shows the product and food-safe kraft keeps the look natural.
Rope-style handles feel premium, carry heavier items and let a single-colour logo look sharp on natural brown.
Wide gusset and flat handle carry meal boxes upright. Grease-resistant paper is available on request.
Kraft paper is made from long wood fibres, which gives it high tear strength compared with ordinary paper. That is why kraft has become the default choice for takeaway bags, grocery bags and boutique shopping bags, and why a printed kraft bag still looks good after being carried across a mall or stuffed into a delivery rider's box.
As Abu Dhabi retailers move away from single-use plastic carrier bags, kraft has become the easiest replacement: it is recyclable, easy to print and light to ship. Print Near Me helps you choose the right weight, handle and print method, proof your artwork and deliver finished, folded bags ready to use.
Because kraft is naturally brown, ink behaves differently from white paper. Dark inks and white ink look best on brown, while bright colours appear muted. We advise on this at proof stage so the finished bag matches what you expect.
Every style can be printed with your logo. Sizes are custom, so you can match them to your product.

Not sure kraft is the right material? Here is how the four most requested bag types compare.
| Bag type | Reusable? | Look & feel | Print finish | Best for | Budget |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printed paper bags | Light reuse | Premium, smooth, retail look | Full colour, lamination, foil, spot UV | Boutiques, malls, perfumes, events | Mid to higher |
| Kraft paper bags | Light reuse | Natural, earthy, eco look | 1–4 colour, foil, sticker | Cafes, bakeries, takeaway, eco brands | Low to mid |
| Non-woven bags | Strong reuse | Fabric-like, light, practical | Screen print, laminated full colour | Exhibitions, supermarkets, giveaways | Low |
| Cotton bags | Long-term reuse | Soft, natural, premium eco | Screen, DTF/heat transfer, embroidery | Premium gifts, retail, conferences | Mid |
Choose kraft when you want an eco-friendly, low-cost bag with a natural look and food-safe options. Choose laminated paper for a glossy luxury finish, non-woven for repeated reuse and cotton for a gift people keep for years.
Heavier paper carries more weight and feels more premium. Lighter paper is cheaper and ideal for food items.
| Use case | Paper weight | Typical size (W x H x G, cm) | Handle option | Typical load |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sandwich / pastry SOS | 70–90 gsm | 12 x 24 x 6 to 18 x 30 x 9 | None | Up to 1 kg |
| Bakery window bag | 80–100 gsm | 14 x 26 x 8 to 20 x 32 x 10 | None | Up to 1.5 kg |

| Wine / bottle bag | 130–170 gsm | 12 x 36 x 9 | Twisted / rope | 1–2 bottles |
Sizes and weights are typical ranges. Custom dimensions are available; final load capacity depends on paper grade, glue and handle fixing.
Kraft texture and colour limit the print options, so the best method depends on quantity and artwork.
| Method | Best for | Colours | Quantity guide | Look on kraft |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flexo printing | Large runs with simple logos | 1–4 spot colours | Higher volumes | Crisp, solid colour, lowest cost per bag |
| Screen printing | Medium runs, bold logos | 1–3 colours | Small to medium | Rich opaque ink, good for white on brown |
| Hot foil stamping | Premium accents | Gold, silver, black | Small to medium | Metallic shine, stands out on natural kraft |
| Sticker or label | Very small runs, changing messages | Full colour | Any | Easy to apply by hand, adds a branded seal |
| Digital printing | Short runs, multiple designs | Full colour | Small | Colours soften on brown kraft; white kraft is best |
For a full-colour photographic print, choose white kraft or laminated paper bags instead. See our Paper Bags Printing page for the options.

Kraft bags are made from strong, unbleached or lightly bleached kraft paper with a natural brown or white look and a rougher texture. Normal retail paper bags often use coated art paper with lamination for a glossy or matte finish and full-colour printing. Kraft is lower cost and more eco-looking; coated paper gives a more luxurious print finish.
You can, but brown paper changes how colours look; bright and light colours appear muted. Best results come from one to three bold colours, white ink or foil. For full-colour photographic artwork, white kraft or a laminated paper bag is a better choice.
Yes. Kraft paper is made from wood fibre, is recyclable and is a common replacement for plastic carrier bags. For best recyclability, choose water-based inks and avoid heavy plastic lamination. Local collection systems vary, so the exact end-of-life depends on how bags are disposed of.
Food-grade kraft paper is available for bread, pastries, sandwiches and takeaway. Tell us what food the bag will hold so we can recommend suitable paper, a grease-resistant lining if needed and a food-safe window film for bakery bags.
You can choose twisted paper handles, flat paper handles, die-cut handles punched into the top, rope or ribbon handles for gift bags, or no handle for SOS bags. Handle choice affects strength, cost and the look of the bag.
Measure your product and add allowance for the gusset and top fold. Use 70–100 gsm for light food items, 120–160 gsm for retail and takeaway, and 140–180 gsm for large or heavier shopping bags. We can propose a size from your product photo or sample.
Minimums depend on the style and print method. Flexo printing suits higher volumes, while screen printing, foil and stickers suit smaller runs. Share your quantity and we will confirm the best option and pricing at the quote stage.
Turnaround depends on the style, quantity, print method and finishing such as foil or handles. We confirm production time at the quote stage and after artwork approval, and can advise on urgent event deadlines.
Yes. Printed bags are packed in cartons and delivered to offices, shops, restaurants and event venues across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah and the other Emirates. You can also combine bags with other branded items such as cups, notebooks and gift sets.
