Various Printing Methods Available For Branded Tote Bag Shares

You all probably know the importance of printed tote bags that feature your brand and sales message. Do you wonder how your branded tote bags are created?

There are several ways to print branded bags. This is often determined by the type of bespoke bag you choose. You can choose from cotton, canvas, jute, or polypropylene. Your printed tote bag is going to be a representation of your business. It’s important to create a striking, attractive design. Customers will use the bag every day if they love it. This allows you to reach even more people.

In the next seven-year, the market for canvas bags will grow at a rate of 4.60%. To build their business empires, more and more companies are using custom tote bags. Do you consider custom tote bags as an option? The printing method is the most important aspect.

Screen printing, heat transfer, and DTG are all common methods. There are many printing options available, which open up endless possibilities. You can print anything, whether you prefer vibrant graphics or real photos. Your canvas bag needs will determine the type of method that you choose.

Let’s look at the different printing methods that can be used to create your branded tote bag.

Transfer Printing

This method works well with a variety of printed tote bags. This allows you to use any type of image or design with multiple colors on custom tote bags that are made for your business.

First, the design is printed on special heat transfer papers. The design is then placed on the bag and squashed against it using a heat press. After a time, the bag is removed from the heat press and allowed to cool. This will produce super cool printed tote bags that you can use to promote your business.

Custom Earth Promos has a wide selection of fabric bags that are ideal for full transfer printing. This includes cotton bags. These bags can be used as a standard shopper (or a gusseted shopper), with a long or short handle. They are made from high-quality 5oz cotton. Canvas bags can either be made from natural cotton or one of six colors or then printed with your design.

Spot Color Printing

If your company logo or design is only one color, spot printing is the best option. Spot colors are created without the use of screens or dots like those in the Pantone Matching System. Spot colors are made from 14 base colors; each color is mixed according to its unique formula by Pantone. You may have mixed yellow and blue paint as a child to create green. The process of creating a Pantone color is similar but more precise.

Solid spot colors can give you a clean, crisp print on branded bags, or bespoke canvas bags. Spot colors printed on 100% natural, unbleached, and undyed jute bags or a durable laminated woven bag will keep your branding visible day after day.

Screen Printing

Silk printing is also known as screen printing. It uses nylon mesh and a frame made of steel. These screens act as a template that allows the paint to be applied. On separate screens, the colors are applied one at a time. The patterns are then transferred to the fabric in layers.

This technique uses mesh to transfer ink onto the bag. Impermeable block stencils can be used to prevent ink from getting where it’s not needed. This is how you create your image.

When to Use It?

This method is best for printing simple images, such as letters or logos. A seamless color transition cannot be achieved with screen printing. It is almost impossible to print high-quality photographic images using it. Simple geometric patterns and shapes are good for screen printing.

Screen printing can also be used to bulk print simple patterns. A great example of this is when you need to print small polka dots patterns on fabric.
