Printed Sugar Cane Bags

Product details

Sugar cane bags are nearly identical to standard polythene carrier bags, however they’re incredibly eco-friendly. These bags are made from a polymer derived from sugar cane waste, making them completely carbon neutral, 100% recyclable, but just as strong and versatile as a plastic carrier bag. What’s more, because of their eco-friendly benefits, they’re completely tax exempt.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes are available for sugar cane bags?

Our plastic bag size guide can be referenced for all of our polythene alternative bags. For orders over 10,000 bags, we can create bags to any size you require.

What is the benefit of a sugar cane carrier bag?

The main benefit of a sugar cane carrier bag is that it retains all the benefits of a standard polythene carrier bag, but it’s carbon neutral, made from natural material waste, and is tax exempt. This means you get the same strength, storage, printing and weatherproof benefits of a plastic carrier bag, knowing that the bag’s production has had a positive impact on the environment.

Are sugar cane bags eco-friendly?

Yes, the process for making sugar cane bags is very eco-friendly. These bags are made from sugar cane waste which is an incredibly environmentally efficient material approach. The production is also carbon neutral, and the carrier bags are completely recyclable, meaning they should have little to no waste impact on the environment if disposed of correctly.

Are there any printing limitations with sugar cane bags?

There are no limitations on printing with a sugar cane bag, and you should treat sizing and printing in the exact same way as you would one of our regular polythene bags.

Are sugar cane bags as strong as polythene bags?

Yes, because of their production method, sugar cane bags are made from a polymer that is similar to a regular polythene carrier bag. This means that their strength, look and feel are identical to a plastic bag.

What is a sugar cane bag made from?

Sugar cane bags are made from sugar cane waste. This is used to make ethanol, which is then made into a polymer – this process is very similar to that of a regular polythene carrier bag. As such, these bags look identical to plastic carrier bags, but their materials are significantly more eco-friendly.

Do I get an artwork proof before I order?

As part of our process, you will receive an artwork proof before production begins. We’ll work with you on any revisions and help tailor your design to the available print options. Production will only begin once you’re happy with the artwork and have approved it.

Can I order a sample before placing an order?

Yes, samples can be arranged so you can assess the bag, material, size and finish before committing to a full order. Availability may vary depending on the bag type, specification and the type of print requested. As far as possible, we aim to provide samples that closely reflect the final bag you are looking to create.
