Paper Bags – Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers on strength, sizes, colours, delivery, printing, recycling and trade orders.Are your paper bags recyclable?
Most plain brown kraft paper bags and many white kraft bags can go in normal UK paper/card recycling if they are clean and dry. Bags with glitter, lamination or holographic finish may not be accepted everywhere, so please check local council guidance or see Recycle Now.
Plain kraft paper is naturally biodegradable and will break down over time. Coloured or coated gift bags can take longer, so we only claim “biodegradable” for our plain kraft range. We avoid blanket “100% biodegradable” claims for every style because some finishes slow the breakdown.
Our brown kraft paper carrier bags with handles are widely used to carry boxed or wrapped hot food, deli items and bakery goods. For direct contact with oily or wet food, we recommend adding a greaseproof liner inside the bag.
The twisted handles are reinforced with an internal patch and colour-matched to the bag for a clean retail look. The 100 gsm kraft paper is tough and typically carries up to 8 kg in normal boutique / café / street-food use.
X-Small (24×18×8 cm) suits jewellery, skincare minis and party favours. Small (31×24×11 cm) is good for candles, bath sets, folded kidswear and takeaway portions. Medium (41×32×12 cm) fits folded T-shirts, light knitwear, A4 brochures and merch packs. You can also download our size guide (PDF).
