Printed Twisted Handle Paper Bags

The minimum order quantity depends on the level of printing and customisation you require. Single-colour printed paper bags start from 100 units, while multicolour printing starts from 5,000 units. For fully bespoke paper bags, including custom sizes, specifications and wider print options, the minimum order is 10,000 units. Buying in wholesale brings down the cost per unit (the larger the order, the lower the price each bag will cost). 

On average, it takes around 3 weeks for us to manufacture, print and deliver your paper bags once your order goes through. For larger paper bag orders of over 5,000 units, lead times are typically around 6–8 weeks. Delivery times can vary depending on the quantity, bag specification and print requirements, and we’ll confirm these with you before your order is placed. If you need your bags by a specific deadline, let us know in advance and we’ll work towards it.

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.
