Eco Bags

Printed eco carrier bags are a fantastic way to advertise any business or charity. The Printed Bag Shop specialise in producing high quality eco friendly bags which have minimal damaging impact on the environment.

Businesses have an obligation to reduce their carbon footprint which can prove costly, yet it can also be a positive step to attracting new customers. Potential customers see a businesses proactive approach to environmental issues as a positive point, therefore using environmentally friendly bags and packaging reflects positively on the goods and services of your company.

Below are the different types of eco bags produced by The Printed Bag Shop, and how they can help your company reduce its environmental impact:

Plastic Bags - Contain an additive which speeds up the degrading process after exposure to UV light. Plastic bags have always been thought of as an environmentally damaging product due to their visibility on landfill sites, yet the addition of the degrading agent and the fact they are manufactured in the UK means the carbon footprint of this eco plastic bag is extremely low.

Paper Bags - Every time an order is placed for paper bags we will plant a tree through the Trees for Life campaign. These eco paper bags are also made from 100% recyclable material instead of recycled paper, recyclable material is of a higher quality and allows our customers to maintain high quality branding.

Cotton Bags - These bags can be reused many times, reducing the need for disposable bags which can heavily impact the environment. All of our eco cotton bags are produced in India in suitable working conditions. Cotton can not be grown in the UK so we bulk buy and import 100,000 bags at a time to reduce the bags’ carbon footprint.

Jute Bags - Also imported in bulk from India and produced in suitable working conditions, the jute bag is becoming a popular item on the high street due to its versatility and rustic look. These bags are printed in the UK with water-based ink to reduce the effect the bag has on the environment.

Choosing the correct eco bags for your company is becoming more and more important due to the ever-changing market, prices are fluctuating and taxes are being introduced to offset the impact of different packaging materials.
