Folded Handle Paper Bags | Flat Handle Kraft Bags AU

What it is

folded handle bags, in practice

The handle is a folded strip of the same paper, glued either inside the mouth of the bag or externally across the top. Internal handles look cleaner; external handles are stronger on a wide bag because the load spreads across the front panel.

With no rope to bunch up these ship and store flat, which matters when a kitchen keeps thousands under a bench.

There is also a wide-base patisserie version with a deeper footprint, for cakes and boxes that have to sit level.

Questions

Before you order

+ Internal or external handles?

Internal for a tidier top edge, external where the bag is wide or the contents are heavy. Tell us what goes in it and we will recommend one.

+ Will the handle hold a hot takeaway order?

With the right board weight, yes. Tell us the heaviest order you send out and the stock is chosen for that, not for an average.

+ Can these print all over?

The flexo range is printed and made in one pass, so the print can run across the full panel. The overprinted range prints onto a formed bag, which limits the area slightly.
