Custom printed with your logo or artwork
Your 340 g/m² heavyweight bags can be printed with your logo, artwork, slogan, illustration or campaign design.
Simple one-colour prints can look especially clean and premium on heavier fabric. This works well for minimalist logos, fashion brands, cafés, galleries, bookstores and retail stores.
More detailed artwork may also be possible depending on the print method, fabric colour and file quality. For the best result, we recommend sending a vector file such as PDF, AI, EPS or SVG. A high-resolution PNG may also work for simple designs.

After you place your order, we check your file and prepare a digital proof for approval before production starts. This lets you review the print size and placement before the bags are made.

340 g/m² compared with other bag weights
Choose 340 g/m² if you want the strongest and most premium option in the cotton bag range.
Choose 100 g/m² if you want the lightest and most budget-friendly option for simple giveaways.
Choose 140 g/m² if you want a practical lower-cost option with many product types, such as small bags, pouches and drawstring bags.
Choose 180 g/m² if you want a stronger flat long-handle bag, but do not need a heavyweight feel.
Choose 220 g/m² if you want a premium middle option for retail, merchandise and branded gifts.
For a bag that feels sturdy, substantial and more like a real product, 340 g/m² is the best starting point.
When should you choose a gusseted 340 g/m² bag?
Choose a gusseted 340 g/m² bag when the contents need more space or structure.
The side and bottom gussets make the bag better for retail purchases, product boxes, folded clothing, gifts, books, food items, welcome kits and larger event materials.
A flat bag works well for papers and light everyday carrying. A gusseted heavyweight bag is better when the bag needs to stand out as part of the customer experience.
When should you choose a double-handle bag?
Choose a double-handle bag when you want more flexibility.
The customer can carry it by hand or over the shoulder, depending on the situation. This makes it useful for retail, travel, events, hospitality, shopping and everyday use.
Double handles also make the bag feel more considered and practical, which is useful when the bag itself is part of the brand impression.
When should you not choose 340 g/m²?
340 g/m² is not always the right choice.
If you need the cheapest possible bag for a one-day giveaway, a lighter option such as 100 g/m² or 140 g/m² may be enough.
If you want a simple event tote for brochures and papers, 180 g/m² or 220 g/m² may be more cost-effective.
If your order is very large and budget is the main priority, 340 g/m² may be more than you need.
But if your bag should feel strong, premium and worth reusing, 340 g/m² is the right direction.
