Paper Bags

In an age where the use of plastic is under a massive amount of scrutiny, here at Crazy Bags we have a vast, gorgeous range of paper bags to use to replace regular plastic bags that we see so commonly.

There are various benefits to choosing to use a paper bag, such as their sustainability, over a plastic bag and this blog details the full list of advantages for you.

Our paper carrier bags are perfect for holding and carrying your belongings in while they are also great as a giveaway gift if you are looking to promote your business at an event or conference.

Importance of using paper bags

While plastic bags remain a popular choice especially in supermarkets and grocery stores, the paper bag has come a long way since its exception hundreds of years ago. Despite sometimes being lazily associated with bags that rip, paper bags are now developed to be durable and long-lasting allow you multiple uses, like a traditional plastic bag. However, unlike a plastic bag, a paper carrier bag is much safer for use by children and thanks to their rigid nature they can normally hold more items that a similarly sized bag made from plastic.

Attention is turning to the way plastic is used and disposed of, but this is not a problem for bags made from paper – they are much more environmentally friendly. You can even recycle our products made from paper. This is one of the main advantages of paper bags over plastic bags. Paper bags are also biodegradable and therefore post less of a risk to wildlife.

Different types of paper carrier bags

Thanks to their renewable properties, once they have surpassed their optimal levels of use paper bags can be sent to a paper mill to be recycled and made into fresh, new paper. This process uses considerably less energy than recycling plastic and allows the material to be used to create a different style of carrier bag made from paper.

Crazy Bags stock a massive selection of paper carriers bag. We have luxury paper bags as well as our Kraft paper bags. Our luxury range is ideal for advertising your brand or business and can also be used as gift bags and thanks to their varying sizes you can use them to carry items of many shapes and sizes.

The Kraft bags we supply are made in two styles.

The handmade Kraft paper bag is what we consider to be our more high-class choice out of the two.
