About jute bags
Jute bags are made from natural jute fabric, laminated or unlaminated, with cotton, rope or bamboo handles. They are popular with retailers, gifting companies, wedding planners and exporters for their sturdy build and eco-friendly image.
Laminated jute gives sharper print results; natural jute suits a rustic look.
About cotton bags
Cotton bags are soft, washable and reusable, making them a practical replacement for plastic carry bags. Grocery stores, clothing brands and promotional campaigns order them printed with logos and messages.
Natural (unbleached) cotton is often the most economical option for large printed runs.
