What are non-woven bags?
Non-woven bags are made from polypropylene fabric in many GSMs and colours. They are among the most economical reusable carry bags and are widely used by garment shops, supermarkets, pharmacies and promotional campaigns.
They are mainly bought by local shops & stores, garment & textile businesses, supermarkets & grocery chains, wholesalers and restaurants & food outlets, for grocery & daily shopping, retail packaging and promotional giveaways.
How to choose non-woven bags for a bulk order
Decide these four things first — they drive suitability, quality and price.
Load
Grocery and retail loads need gussets and reinforced handles; giveaways can be lighter.
Material
Non-woven for economy, cotton for washable reuse, jute for a natural premium look, paper for boutique retail.
Fabric weight
Specify GSM — it decides strength and price more than any other choice.
Print
One- or two-colour screen printing keeps costs down on large runs.
