FAQs
What materials are best for reusable tote bags?
The short answer is to pick the fabric that fits your use case. Canvas and heavier cotton feel premium and hold their shape well, so they are great for retail and gifting. Non woven polypropylene is the budget hero for supermarkets and large promotions. PP woven with lamination is the strongest option for heavy groceries and wet produce, and it wipes clean easily. RPET gives you recycled content for sustainability programs while still printing nicely. If you need something that packs small, choose lightweight nylon or polyester foldables. If you are not sure, tell us your budget, target load, and artwork style, and we will recommend a material and weight that make sense.
Can you print full color photos on reusable tote bags?
Yes. For cotton and canvas, DTG works well for photo style art and smooth gradients. For poly or RPET, sublimation gives vivid color and no heavy ink feel. For PP woven, we print the film and then laminate it to the fabric, which allows true full bleed, retail grade graphics. Send 300 dpi files in CMYK and any Pantone references you have. If you want edge to edge art, tell us early so we can plan the cut and print layout correctly. We will share a strike off or pre production sample for approval before mass production.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Typical MOQ starts from 200 to 500 pieces, and it depends on the fabric, print method, and any custom trims. Screen printing on non woven often allows the lowest MOQ. Full color laminated PP usually needs a higher MOQ due to material setup. If you are launching a new SKU and want to test first, we can quote a pilot batch and then scale. You can also split colors or sizes within one order when the print stays the same. Tell us your target quantity and we will structure the most efficient plan.
How strong are your handles and seams?
We reinforce stress points with X stitch or box stitch and match thread type to fabric weight. For heavier builds, we can add cross stitching at the base and a bottom board to protect the corners. We run pull tests and seam strength checks during QC and can meet a specific kilogram rating if you need it. If your bag will carry bottles, books, or heavy produce, we will propose a handle width and stitch density that will hold up in daily use.
Are RPET tote bags really made from recycled bottles?
Yes. RPET yarn is produced from recycled PET, often sourced from post consumer bottles. We work with mills that provide documentation on recycled content. RPET fabric prints well, especially with sublimation, and has a clean, modern look. If you need a specific recycled percentage for your sustainability targets, tell us and we will select the right base cloth and keep the paperwork ready.
Can you match my Pantone color?
We can. For solid fabric colors, we make a lab dip and send photos or physical swatches for approval. For print colors, we match to Pantone on your chosen print method and share a strike off. Keep in mind that color can look slightly different on canvas versus laminated PP due to surface texture and gloss, so we confirm on the actual material. If color consistency across multiple materials is critical, we will align a target and tolerance in advance.
Should I choose canvas or non woven for my project?
Choose canvas when you want a premium retail feel, a structured shape, and longevity. It works beautifully with embroidery, screen print, and DTG, and it becomes part of your customer’s daily routine. Choose non woven when you want the best price for large volumes, fast production, and a wide color palette for simple logos. If you need extreme durability and wipe clean performance, PP woven with lamination is a smart middle ground. We can also mix materials across a program, for example canvas for VIP sets and non woven for events.
Are the bags washable?
Canvas and cotton can be gently hand washed with mild soap and cool water. Reshape while damp and air dry. Avoid long direct sunlight to protect color. Non woven and laminated PP are best for wipe clean care with a soft cloth. RPET behaves like other poly fabrics and can be wiped or gently hand washed. For bags with full color lamination or complex trims, avoid machine washing and dryers. If you need care labels with specific instructions, we can add them during production.
How long does production and shipping take?
Sampling usually takes 3 to 7 days after artwork. Mass production runs 10 to 25 days after the sample and deposit, depending on the material, print method, and order size. Shipping time depends on your location and method. Courier is fastest for small cartons, air freight is a good middle ground for urgent launches, and sea freight is the most cost effective for bulk. If you share your in hand date, we will plan backward and lock in the timeline. During peak seasons, we recommend confirming your slot a little earlier.
Can you add retail packaging and barcodes?
Yes. Common options include kraft belly bands, hang tags, woven labels, and retail boxes. We can print EAN or UPC barcodes, FNSKU labels for Amazon, and QR codes that point to your website or campaign page. If you have a kitting or gift set requirement, we can pack inserts, flyers, or samples with each bag. Share your packaging die line or ask us to propose one that meets your retail standards.
