Promotional Paper Bag Options
When choosing the appropriate promotional paper bag for your marketing campaign, consider how and where the bag will be used. Brown Kraft paper bags fit in well at small country stores, collectible shops and health markets. They give a close to home, earthy feel. On the other hand, classic white Kraft paper bags provide a cleaner look appropriate for health care facilities or as gift bags at golf tournaments and fundraisers. The white paper is a pristine backdrop for any color logo or message. If you want something to complement your branding, look into colored paper bags. You can often have a bag dyed to match your logo.
Paper bags with a logo are an affordable branding option, but in some cases the pricing can get tricky. Many of HALO’s paper bags require a minimum plate charge per color. The minimum charge for each plate is often $35 and plate charges are $2 per square inch of plate material used. Ink and foil designs require one plate per color, per side. You can determine the correct charge by measuring the dimensions of each color in your imprint design. Use the longest distance for each dimension. Your HALO Account Executive will quote the plate charges for process print designs.
To calculate an estimate: multiple the size of your logo width by height to determine square inches. Then multiply the total square inches by $2 to get the total cost. Example: 6” x 6” = 36 square inches. 36 square inches x $2 = $72 plate charge.
