Custom tote bags and shopping bags for B2B projects

Tote bags, shopping bags and shoppers combine practical carrying functions with a generous surface for brand communication. For retail, promotional campaigns, trade fairs or events, the right combination of material, format, carrying style and design is key.

IGRO primarily manufactures bags to customer specifications. Existing models can serve as starting points for developing the right solution for a project. Depending on the construction, details such as the material, format, handles and other design elements can be coordinated.

Which tote bag fits your project?

The right construction depends on the intended use and the required product characteristics:

• Woven PP: BAG311, BAG312 and BAG313 are available as custom-made permanent bags in woven PP. They offer printable surfaces and can be produced in custom Pantone colours.
• rPET: BAG311, BAG312 and BAG313 are also available in rPET. The BAG315X 4438 shopper adds lamination on both sides and is printable and customisable.
• PP non-woven: BAG315_PPNW is a laminated PP non-woven carry bag. Its surface can be produced with a glossy or matt finish. BAG315X combines PP non-woven material with a coloured net layer for a distinctive appearance.
• Custom PP constructions: BAG316_PP is designed for custom-made PP bags in special shapes. Depending on the project, details such as size, handle length, closure, bottom and side gussets can be specified.
• Paper-based constructions: PA002 combines a woven PP bag with a recycled-paper outer layer. BAG850X is a sewn AQUATEX kraft-paper bag made to customer specifications.

Tote bags made to customer specifications

For a custom-made bag, the project requirements determine the construction. Important considerations include:

• required bag dimensions
• material and construction
• handle length and design
• closure and additional features
• required print area
• colours and visual design
• intended application
• required quantity

BAG316_PP illustrates the range of customisation particularly well. Depending on the project, size, handle length, closure, bottom and side gussets, edge shape, piping and lining can be coordinated.

Printed tote bags and shoppers

Many of the bags in this category provide printable surfaces for logos, graphics and other design elements. BAG311/BAG312/BAG313, BAG315X 4438 and BAG315X are explicitly designed for customisation. BAG301 can also be printed and customised.

When selecting a bag, the shape is only one consideration. Material, surface, size, handle design and the intended branding should also be taken into account. This helps match the bag to the requirements of the project.

For retail, promotions, trade fairs and events

Depending on the construction, shoppers and tote bags can be used for retail and point-of-sale applications, promotional campaigns, merchandising, trade fairs and events.

For a trade fair, a bag with a suitable printable area can carry a company logo or campaign design. In retail, size, carrying style and construction may be more important. With a custom-made project, these requirements can be considered during production.

Selected models as starting points

The following models illustrate different construction options within the category:

Request the right tote bag

For a custom tote or shopping bag, useful project information includes the intended application, required size, material, handles, features, branding requirements and quantity.

If a model such as BAG311, BAG312, BAG313, BAG315X, BAG315_PPNW or BAG316_PP already matches your project, it can be used as a starting point for further specification.
