White gloss laminated paper bags personalised with your design, our ShortRun screen print service produces a strong solid colour image.
Ethically sourced and skillfully handmade from 190gsm art card, our bags have a reinforced top that neatly folds over and base card that is neatly glued to the inside of the bag by hand, making them very strong.
Their strength coupled with a super sleek look makes them extremely popular with boutique shops and high-end retailers - add some grey tissue paper for a really luxurious look.
We hold 1,000's of ready made carrier bags in stock in our Worthing warehouse.
When you order, have paid, and approved your design, we produce a ‘screen’. This is charged as the ‘set-up cost’ on your first order. We will keep your screens for their entire lifespan for your re-orders. Your design is transferred on to an acetate sheet and the design is then transferred onto the mesh screen using a photosensitive block and UV light.
Ink is poured over the screen and a squeegee then glides across the screen to cover the mesh with ink.
The paper that is exposed to the ink produces your design on the bag. You can see the process in this video.
