Branding guide

Logo printing on tiffin bags

Tiffin Bags can be branded with screen printing, heat transfer printing and embroidery. The best method depends on your logo, the material and the quantity.

Quick answer

Screen printing is the most common way to brand tiffin bags — bold logos on large bulk runs. For one or two flat colours, large quantity, choose screen printing. The usual logo position is the front panel.

Watch-outs by method

  • Screen printing: Every extra colour adds a screen and a print pass; gradients do not reproduce well.
  • Heat transfer printing: Check wash and abrasion durability for daily-use bags.
  • Embroidery: Very small text and thin lines need simplifying; it is usually done on panels before assembly.
