What to watch for with each material

  • Cotton: Light cotton is economical for giveaways; heavier cotton for daily grocery use.
  • Jute: Natural jute has a coarse texture — fine logo detail prints better on laminated jute or juco.
  • Canvas: Heavier canvas costs more but lasts longer — match GSM to the load.
  • Juco (Jute-Cotton Blend): Usually priced between cotton and laminated jute.
