About jute bags

Jute bags are made from natural jute fabric, laminated or unlaminated, with cotton, rope or bamboo handles. They are popular with retailers, gifting companies, wedding planners and exporters for their sturdy build and eco-friendly image.

Laminated jute gives sharper print results; natural jute suits a rustic look.

About rice & grain packaging bags

Reusable rice and grain bags package 1–25 kg of rice, atta, pulses and millets for retail brands. Printed jute and non-woven bags with handles double as reusable shopping bags, which keeps the brand in the customer's home.

Grain brands order by fill weight; confirm the exact fill and product density so the bag is sized correctly.
