Eco-committed recycled kraft paper gift bag with natural rope handles — manufactured by Guangdong Bincai Color Printing Co., Ltd., a full-chain packaging enterprise with 22 years of manufacturing expertise (founded 2003). Made from 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) kraft paper (120–200gsm), this bag combines sustainability with premium retail aesthetics. The natural brown kraft base is printed with water-based inks — solvent-free, low-VOC, and fully biodegradable — using KBA 1050 4-color offset for crisp, vibrant branding. Twisted cotton or jute rope handles are knotted through reinforced brass or cardboard eyelets for durability up to 5kg load capacity. Optional matte lamination adds water resistance and a soft-touch premium feel. Produced across Bincai’s 18,000 sqm dual factory (10,000+8,000 sqm smart factory) in Foshan, Guangdong. ISO 9001:2015 and FSC certified. Daily output 1.7 million boxes (bag line: 300,000+ bags/day). MOQ 1,000.

FAQ
Q: Is the bag truly 100% recycled? A: Yes — Bincai sources FSC Recycled certified kraft paper from verified post-consumer waste streams. Chain-of-custody documentation available on request.
Q: How much weight can the bag hold? A: 120gsm bags handle up to 3kg with even distribution. 150gsm up to 5kg. 200gsm up to 8kg. All bags pass a 2× safety factor load test in QC Gate 7.
Q: Can you print full-color photos on kraft paper? A: Yes — KBA 1050 4-color offset handles photographic reproduction on kraft. Note that the natural brown base will affect color rendering compared to white-coated paper. We recommend water-based white underprint for vibrant photos.
Q: What’s the MOQ for custom printing? A: 1,000 bags for 1–2 color print. 3,000 bags for 4-color process. Custom handle colors require 5,000 bags minimum.
Q: Are the bags food-safe? A: Yes — water-based inks are FDA-compliant for indirect food contact. For direct food contact (bakery, produce), we recommend an inner food-grade liner. Bincai can supply bags with PE or PLA compostable inner liners.
Q: Can you do rush orders? A: Standard lead time is 15-20 working days. Rush orders (7-10 days) available at 1.3× standard pricing for quantities under 10,000 bags.
