let's get technical

Our printing methods and MOQs explained...

When it comes to custom printed bags or pouches, we currently have two different options to suit your needs. Each comes with it's own advantages and effect minimum order quanties.

Digital printing

For low-volume short-run production we use Digital Printing. Not unlike home or office printers, this technology uses CMYK + white toners, which means we can keep our MOQ’s low at 500.

This option is ideal for startups or one-time production, as it comes with design flexibility. These bags and pouches are not a print-on-demand product, but beautiful supermarket-quality packaging that is formed after the material is printed.

Enquire now

500 minimum order quantity per unique design/size.

Express options from 4-6 weeks. Standard delivery from 10-12 weeks (once artwork is submitted.)

More flexibility to change details on your bags for shorter print runs.

Gravure printing

Gravure printing is a high-quality printing method that uses engraved cylinders to transfer ink onto your bags or pouches. It’s ideal for large-scale production because it delivers sharp details, vibrant colours, and consistent results.

Generally, the minimum gravure order is 5,000 per unique bag design/size and you’ll need to purchase one drum per colour in your design, as a first-time upfront cost. However providing no details change, any subsequent orders become considerably more cost effective than digital printing.

5,000 minimum order quantity per unique design/size.

Express options from 4-6 weeks. Standard delivery from 10-12 weeks (once artwork is submitted.)

A great cost effective option for longer-term custom printing.
