Recycled Cotton & RPET Canvas for Tote bags

Tote and shopper bags want a cloth that holds its shape empty, folds flat, and takes print or a dyed shade cleanly. Weight is chosen for how the bag is used: giveaway totes run light, grocery and book totes run heavy.

What tote bags buyers ask us

What weight canvas is best for a tote bag?

6.5 to 10 oz (about 220–340 g/m²) covers most totes. Go to 12–16 oz for grocery and heavy carry, and 5–7 oz for light promotional bags.

Can you supply RFD so we print locally?

Yes. RFD by the roll from 100 m greige equivalent, so you control print and shade in your own market with no per-colour minimum.
