How to choose

Start with the use case, not the style — that's the part we enjoy most about a bag brief. If the bag lives on a conference floor for a single day, a non-woven tote or calico drawstring at AU$1.95-$3.50 does the job beautifully; your logo travels home and the unit economics hold at scale. If it needs to survive a year of commuting (staff gifts, university orientation, retail gift-with-purchase), step up to canvas tote bags in 280-340gsm cotton, a jute tote, a hemp bag, or a rPET blend. Fabric weight is the first thing people notice in the hand. Thin totes feel cheap no matter how good the print comes out. For laptop bags, computer bags, messenger bags and satchels, check three things: internal padding, zip quality (YKK or equivalent), and whether the imprint area is flat enough for screen print or needs embroidery. Embroidery reads as premium on thicker fabrics. Screen print reads cleaner on canvas and non-woven. Pad print is for small logos on curved pockets. Edge-to-edge sublimation on rPET polyester is how you get full-bleed pattern work. Branding method drives price more than people expect. A 1-colour screen print is the cheapest way to carry a bold logo. Beyond 3-4 colours, setup starts to matter at low MOQ — that's when digital transfer or full-colour sublimation becomes the smarter maths. Embroidery adds AU$1.50-$4 per unit but never fades. For eco-minded briefs, we'll route you to our rPET, FSC paper, bamboo and recycled-cotton options — the same fabrics our in-house design studio uses when agencies brief us on sustainability storytelling. On MOQ: most custom bags start at 50-100 units, with no MOQ on many items and bulk rollouts for national campaigns. Jute, canvas and paper bags can drop to 25 on pilot runs. At 2,000+, expect 30-45% off the 100-qty tier — ask for a stepped quote across 100, 250, 500 and 1,000. Finally, always order a sample. Forty-eight hours from request to your desk. The CEO holds it, feels the weight, and the decision makes itself. Fast can still feel thoughtful — that's the standard we hold ourselves to.

Pricing guidance

Pricing rule of thumb: at 100 units with a 1-colour screen print, a non-woven tote sits around AU$1.95-$3.50, a rPET tote AU$2.80-$4.50, a canvas tote bag AU$4.50-$9, a jute tote AU$6-$12, and a laptop bag AU$22-$55. At 500 units those drop 25-40%. Full-colour digital print adds AU$0.35-$0.80 per unit. Setup is AU$40-$85 per colour, once off. Embroidery adds AU$1.50-$4 per unit with a one-time digitising fee around AU$55.

Frequently asked questions

What's the minimum order for promotional bags?

Most custom bags start at 50-100 units, with no MOQ on many items and bulk rollouts for national campaigns. Calico, jute and paper bags can drop to 25 on pilot runs. Premium leather and duffle bags typically start at 50. For 2,000+ briefs expect 30-45% off the 100-qty tier — ask for a stepped quote.

How long do promotional bags take to produce and deliver in Australia?

Standard lead time is 7-15 business days from artwork approval. Many core lines are branded in 1-4 business days; 3-5 day express is available on 400+ SKUs. For Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane briefs we can sometimes courier same-week on stocked decorated canvas totes and non-woven bags.

What branding and printing methods do you offer on bags?

Screen print (1-6 colour) is our most common method for canvas and non-woven totes. We also run pad print for small curved logos, embroidery on thicker cotton and canvas, heat transfer for gradients, and full-colour digital or edge-to-edge sublimation on rPET, neoprene and paper. Setup is AU$40-$85 per colour.

Can I see a sample of a promotional bag before I order?

Yes. Free samples ship Australia-wide, dispatched within 48 hours from our Sydney warehouse. Pre-production samples with your actual artwork are available on larger runs. After 30 years of bag briefs, we know the weight, stitch and print register are what people decide on — never the spec sheet alone.

Do you offer eco-friendly promotional bags?

Yes. Our eco bag range includes rPET totes made from recycled plastic bottles, organic cotton, jute, bamboo tote bags, FSC kraft paper and recycled non-woven. GOTS and FSC-certified options are available on request. See our eco-friendly promotional products guide for the full range and certification notes.

What kinds of bags work best for conferences and trade shows?

Conference bags, canvas tote bags, satchels and branded messenger bags all perform well — pick by imprint area and delegate volume. Non-woven and jute suit large-format expo giveaways; canvas and laptop bags suit speaker and VIP packs. We've supplied conference bags wholesale for Australian industry conference and expo exhibitors for years.
