CHOOSE TO SUIT YOUR PRODUCT

Extra reinforcement where the load is concentrated

The handle opening is die-cut directly into the bag material. An internal reinforcing patch around the opening provides a more durable grip area without a separate attached plastic handle.

LDPE provides a softer, more stretchable bag for items such as clothing and gifts. The stated optimum thickness is 50 µm, while versions from 35 µm may be possible for some projects. HDPE from 50 µm is stiffer and may suit heavier loads. Both are available as Re-LDPE and Re-HDPE with recycled raw material. The internal reinforcement helps the handle area withstand the load; actual carrying capacity also depends on material, thickness and dimensions. A bottom gusset can provide greater volume, and inside printing can be assessed for the project. Emballa helps you compare manufacturing options and choose material, construction and printing for the project. Emballa is backed by Plastrum OÜ in Estonia, which works with business customers in the Baltics and Scandinavia.

  • Retail and clothing stores.
  • Supermarkets.
  • Higher-priced products and gift packaging.
  • Trade fairs and promotions.

Logo printing and custom design

Logos, text and patterns can be added using flexographic printing in up to 6 colours. Pantone codes define the shades. Printing can be placed on the front and back and extend partly over the side gussets. Construction, print area and design are agreed together before manufacturing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Before you order.

How do reinforced die-cut handles differ from soft plastic handles?

A reinforced die-cut handle is an opening in the bag's own plastic with an additional reinforcing patch. A soft plastic handle is a separate attached plastic component.

Which material suits heavier contents?

HDPE from 50 µm is a stiffer option. The choice also needs to take account of the product's shape, bag dimensions and required carrying capacity.

Can we order with a logo?

Yes. Flexographic printing in up to 6 colours can be used for logos, text and custom designs.

What is the minimum order quantity?

Unprinted stock products start from 250–500 pcs. Flexographic printing starts from 2 000 pcs and custom dimensions or thicknesses from 2 000–10 000 pcs.
