What is the difference between kraft paper bags and FSC-certified carry bags
Kraft confectionery bags and FSC-certified carry bags serve different purposes within the eco paper range. Kraft bags are smaller, pre-filled with 50g confectionery, and designed as plastic-free giveaway items for tradeshows, fundraisers, and sports days. FSC-certified flat handle carry bags are larger structured bags made from 180gsm certified paper with reinforced bases, built to carry products, collateral, or gifts. Kraft bags are ideal for high-volume treats-based giveaways at budget price points. Carry bags work better for conferences, staff packs, and corporate gifting where presentation and capacity matter more.
Which branded paper bag is better for a tradeshow, kraft confectionery or FSC carry bags
Both formats have a place at tradeshows, but they serve different roles. Kraft confectionery bags work well as quick-grab giveaways at a stand, drawing foot traffic with a branded treat at a budget price point. FSC flat handle carry bags handle the role of branded tote at the event, giving attendees a reusable bag to carry collateral and other merchandise throughout the day. Many teams use both together: kraft bags at the stand for engagement, carry bags for attendees who stop for a longer conversation or product demonstration.
Can I mix confectionery varieties across one order of kraft paper bags
Mixing confectionery varieties within a single order is possible, but minimum quantities per variety may apply. Kraft paper bags are available filled with M&Ms, Jelly Beans, Chewy Mints, Chewy Fruits, Chocolate Beans, and Skittles. Each variety is a separate product, so mixed orders are treated as separate lines. If you're planning a mixed assortment for a community day, conference, or sports day, request a quote with your preferred split and we'll confirm what's achievable within your timeline and budget.
Are the FSC-certified paper carry bags available in portrait and landscape orientations
The FSC flat handle carry bags in the current range are produced in landscape orientation across medium, large, and extra large sizes. Landscape format suits wider collateral, branded tissue paper, or boxed gifts that sit better in a wider-than-tall bag. All three sizes use 180gsm FSC-certified paper with reinforced bases and 100gsm square-folded handles for consistent structural quality. If you need a portrait format or a specific size outside the current range, contact our team on 1300 85 50 35 to discuss custom-made options.
What branding methods are available for eco paper promotional products
Screen printing and digital printing are the primary branding methods used across eco paper products in this range. Screen printing is well suited to bold single or two-colour logos on kraft bag surfaces and carry bags, producing clean, consistent results at volume. Digital printing handles full-colour artwork and smaller runs where screen setup costs would be disproportionate. Print is applied to flat external panels, so artwork should be set up for flat surface reproduction. Our team reviews your file at the proof stage and flags any adjustments needed before production begins.
How long does production take for branded eco paper products
Most branded eco paper product orders are completed within five to ten working days from artwork approval, subject to stock availability and order volume. Kraft confectionery bags tend to move through production quickly given their straightforward print surface. Larger carry bag runs may sit toward the longer end of that range depending on quantity. If you have a fixed event date for a conference, product launch, or community day, share that date when you request a quote so we can confirm a realistic production and delivery schedule.
What is the minimum order quantity for branded kraft paper bags
Minimum order quantities for kraft paper confectionery bags typically fall in the range of 25 to 100 units for stock items, though this can vary by product and print method. This is a general guide rather than a guarantee, as quantities and conditions are confirmed at the quoting stage. For larger tradeshow or conference runs, higher quantities generally improve the per-unit price. Contact our team on 1300 85 50 35 or request a quote online to get confirmed minimums and pricing for your specific requirements.
Are eco paper promotional products suitable for food-safe applications
The kraft paper confectionery bags in this range arrive pre-filled and sealed, so the confectionery is handled in a controlled environment before branded packaging is applied. This means the product itself meets food-safe handling requirements before it reaches your hands. The paper bag and any printed branding on the outer surface do not come into direct contact with the confectionery contents. If you have specific food safety requirements for a school, council, or health-related event, check with our team before ordering to confirm the product meets your needs.
