Custom Kraft Paper Bags

Custom Kraft Paper Bags — Sustainable Branded Retail Packaging

In an era where consumers judge brands by their packaging choices, a kraft paper bag sends an instant signal of environmental responsibility. Made from 100% recycled kraft paper with twisted paper rope handles, our bags are fully recyclable, biodegradable, and FSC-certified — proving that sustainability and brand impact are not mutually exclusive. At The Treasure Boxes, we produce custom kraft bags for fashion retailers, beauty brands, food businesses, event companies, and every brand that wants their packaging to work as hard as their product.

Materials & Environmental Credentials

Our kraft paper bags are manufactured from 120-180gsm recycled kraft paper with FSC Chain of Custody certification. Printing uses water-based, soy-based, or vegetable-based inks that are fully compostable. The twisted paper rope handles are made from the same recycled kraft fibre — no plastic, no mixed materials, 100% kerbside recyclable.

For the highest environmental standard, pair with our eco-friendly boxes and compostable mailers for a zero-plastic packaging programme.

Printing & Brand Customisation

Full-colour CMYK printing is available on all surfaces — front, back, sides, and base. Water-based inks ensure vibrant colour reproduction without compromising recyclability. Popular finishing options include:

• Matte lamination — added durability and a premium tactile feel
• Gloss lamination — vibrant, high-impact colour saturation
• Hot foil stamping — gold, silver, or rose gold logo accents
• Embossing — raised tactile logo for premium positioning

Size Range & Handle Options

From small jewellery bags (15×8×21cm) to large clothing bags (45×15×49cm) and everything between. Handle options include twisted paper rope (most popular), flat paper tape, cotton ribbon, grosgrain ribbon, and die-cut handles. Each handle style communicates a different brand positioning — from casual eco-chic to haute couture luxury.

Strength & Durability

Our 180gsm kraft bags with reinforced bases and double-glued handles hold up to 5kg comfortably. For heavier retail items, we offer 230gsm bags with reinforced gusset panels and triple-glued handles rated to 7kg. Every bag is tested for handle pull strength to ensure your customers never experience a bag failure.

Complete the retail experience with branded tissue paper lining, a logo sticker seal, and a printed thank-you or care card. For premium retail brands, add a custom wrapping paper service layer.
