Can I print my logo on paper bags in small quantities?

Yes — runs start at 500 bags per size. Short runs are the core of our printing service: small businesses get branded bags without committing to thousands of units, and per-bag pricing improves as quantities grow.

How fast can I get custom printed bags in Canada?

Production takes 1–2 days from proof approval, because printing happens in Edmonton — not overseas. Most orders turn around in 24–48 hours depending on quantity, and rush production is available for an additional fee when you need it even faster.

What file do I send for printing?

A vector file (PDF, AI, or EPS) prints sharpest; a high-resolution PNG works for most logos. Send whatever you have — we check every file before printing and send you a proof to approve, so nothing prints until it's right.

What inks do you print with?

We print digitally with water-based inks. Tell us your application when you quote — bakeries, restaurants, and takeout counters are the core of what we print for.

What sizes and colours are available?

Natural kraft with-handle shoppers in six sizes and without-handle bags in three sizes are stocked; custom sizes plus white, coloured, and gift/bottle formats are available on request. Exact dimensions are in the spec tables on this page.

Do you offer wholesale pricing on kraft paper bags?

Every bag is quoted individually for your exact size, quantity, and print — so larger runs naturally earn better per-bag pricing, and standing orders for restaurants and retailers are quoted as a program.

What determines the price of custom printed bags?

Bag size, quantity, and print type (blank, one-colour, or full-colour) — each bag is quoted individually. Send the quote builder below and we'll confirm exact pricing — quotes answered within 2 business hours.

Can you print on the sides (gussets) of the bag?

We print two sides — front and back panels, the retail standard. Gusset (side) printing isn't offered, so artwork is positioned on the two large faces and shown on your proof exactly as it will print.

Can you match my exact brand colour?

Full-colour CMYK digital print reproduces brand palettes closely, and every order gets a proof so you approve the colour before press. We don't offer certified Pantone spot-colour matching — the proof is how you confirm the colour is right.

How do paper bag sizes work?

Bags are measured Width × Gusset (depth) × Height, in inches, with handles excluded. A 10" × 5" × 13" bag is 10" across the face, opens 5" deep, and stands 13" tall. The size guide on this page maps every stocked size to what it typically carries.

Do reorders go faster?

Yes — your artwork stays set up on file at no charge, and unchanged reorders skip the proof stage entirely. Most repeat customers set a reorder trigger at four weeks of remaining stock.

How it works

Artwork → proof → print & ship

Send artwork

Vector (PDF/AI/EPS) prints sharpest; a high-res PNG works for most logos. We check every file, free.

Approve the proof

Your artwork positioned on the exact bag and size ordered. Nothing prints until you approve.

Print & ship

Printed in Edmonton — production is 1–2 days from proof approval; rush production available for an additional fee.

Printing

Blank, one-colour, or full-colour

Blank stock

Unprinted kraft bags from stock — fastest and lowest cost when you just need the bag.

One-colour print

Your logo in a single colour — the classic kraft look. Crisp, economical, digitally printed.

Full-colour print

All printing is digital with water-based inks — the same inks across our bakery, restaurant, and takeout printing. Tell us your application when you quote.

Print coverage

Bags are measured Width × Gusset × Height, handles excluded. Coverage runs in two tiers — your proof shows the artwork positioned on the exact panels you choose:

Tier 1

Front only

Logo on the face panel — the economical standard for one-colour work.

Tier 2

Front + back

Both large panels printed — the maximum coverage we offer, and what most retail and takeout programs run.

Artwork requirements

What to send

• Vector PDF, AI, or EPS — prints sharpest at any size
• Or a PNG/JPG at 300 DPI at print size — fine for most logos
• Don't have files? Send what you have — we'll tell you what works

Our pre-press check, on every order

• Resolution and edge sharpness at the printed size
• Fit inside the print area; safe distance from folds
• Ink colour shift on kraft stock, adjusted before proofing
• Small text legibility (we flag anything under ~8pt)

Then you get a proof of your artwork on the exact bag and size ordered. Nothing prints until you approve it — the check, the proof, and the design setup are free, and your artwork stays on file for every reorder.

Materials & sustainability

Eco claims as numbers, not adjectives

Natural kraft (launch stock): Unbleached, warm brown, 100% curbside recyclable. Dark and saturated inks print rich on it; one-colour logos look intentional and expensive.
White kraft: Bleached to a clean white — the canvas for colour-critical brands and full-colour artwork. On request only — ask for available sizes.
Coloured & tinted stock: Available on request — and full-colour print on white covers any brand colour today.
Paper weights: Weight follows the size and stock selected — roughly 70 gsm on smaller sizes up to 100 gsm on larger ones; each family's weight is in its spec table.
Recycled content: Everything we print is on recycled paper stock — a genuine alternative to plastic packaging.
Inks: Water-based inks on every order — no solvent inks.

Shelves stacked with paper stock in many colours — Stock options: natural kraft, white, recycled content.
