Bag Makers partners exclusively with distributors to sell more than 80 million bags annually. We specialize in bags made from non-woven/PET non-woven/USA-made non-woven, R-PET, cotton/jute, paper, plastic, polyester, and laminated material. We also offer special packaging items, such as printed tissue, ribbon, and bows. Many Bag Makers products are reusable or made from recycled materials, making them suitable for eco-friendly promotions. Bag Makers’ strong inventory ensures we can fulfill orders quickly; we have an exceptional 99% on-time delivery rate.

Bag Makers offers custom services through our Design Centre team. Our domestic and global design and manufacturing capabilities can fulfill larger quantities beyond those listed for standard products in our catalog. These custom services allow customers to build a bag unique—often exclusive—to them, as they can determine the bag’s dimensions, features, closures, pockets, handles and decorative accents.
