// Custom Printing · Hot Stamp
The fastest, lowest-commitment way to put your name on a bag: a heated die presses your mark — one colour per stamp — onto bags from our stock range. From 1,000 units, with production in around 3 weeks, priced by the size of the stamp.
// How Hot Stamping Works
Your mark is made into a stamp, heated, and pressed onto the bag. No full print run, no drums — which is why it’s our fastest and lowest-minimum way into custom branding.
01
Your logo or mark is made into a die, heated and pressed onto the bag — a crisp, premium single-colour finish.
02
Stamps are applied to bags from our stock range, which is why production takes around 3 weeks. Not available on the recyclable or compostable ranges.
03
Hot stamping works best on kraft paper materials — the pressed mark against a natural kraft face is the look most brands choose it for.
04
It suits logos and short text rather than full-coverage artwork — that limit is exactly what gives it the minimal, premium look.
// Is Hot Stamping Right For You?
Hot stamping is deliberately simple. If your branding is too, it’s the smartest way to start.
Your artwork needs full colour, gradients or photography.
