What are screen printed tote backpacks?
Convertible bags that carry as a tote or a backpack — for commuters and creative teams. Bold, durable prints for cotton, canvas, jute and non-woven bags.
Screen printing pushes ink through a mesh stencil, one colour at a time. It gives bright, long-lasting prints and is economical for bulk orders with simple artwork, which is why it is the standard for tote, jute, cotton and non-woven bags.
