1. What is custom made bag?
Cloth bags or fabric bags are bags sewn from thin, easy-to-fold fabrics and sewn together from different pieces of fabric. Depending on the purpose of use and the type of fabric produced, the names of the fabric bags are different from each other. Non-woven bags or canvas bags show the difference in material.
With the development of consumer demand, fabric bags are more and more popular and develop in many different forms. Although the design and use are quite simple, it is that simplicity that causes popularity in the community. Or the use of cloth bags is also a solution to reduce environmental pollution by reusing cloth bags many times.
So, what are the advantages of custom-made fabric bags compared to regular bags? Custom-made fabric bags are often tailored and personalized according to the preferences and purposes of the user. The details and seams are different from many popular fabric bags on the market and the logo or image printed on the bag creates a distinct value for your bag.
2. Fabric bag sewing material
There are now countless different fabrics that can be used to make bags. Some of the more common types include:
- Canvas: This fabric is woven from hemp fiber, also known as burlap. The fabric is less absorbent and has a fairly large thickness. Thanks to its rigidity and strength, canvas fabric is widely used in tents, backpacks, bags, etc. This fabric is usually raw white in color and needs to undergo a dyeing process to get the necessary white color. This is the most popular fashion fabric bag material.
- Non-woven fabrics: Non-woven fabrics include many different fabrics, but in the fabric bag industry, this name is used to refer to the Spunbound fabric. Non-woven fabric is produced from polyester fibers and is used to make masks, bags, clothing boxes. The strongest feature of nonwoven fabric is antibacterial and water resistance. However, for nonwoven fabrics with GSM < 50, water resistance may be lost.
- PP, PE, RPET fabric: These are fabrics or tarpaulin layers used to make cloth bags. Although not too beautiful in appearance, in return the use of these materials makes the bag extremely strong and durable.
3. Application of fabric bags
With the great development of technology and culture, cloth bags are also gradually used for many different purposes, beyond their original and most rudimentary purposes.
Carrying personal belongings and other objects is considered the most basic use of cloth bags. However, this application is also extremely complicated when it comes to the bearing capacity of cloth bags. Currently, on the market, there are many types of fabric bags manufactured with glues, which make the carrying capacity of the fabric bags very low, less than 3kg/bag. Or if the bag has to hold a lot of stuff weighing over 10kg, the bag handle also needs to have programmed seams, not simple, sketchy seams. If your canvas bag is used to store boxes such as shoe boxes, gift boxes, you should consider sewing the side of the bag to make it easier for you to store these types of boxes.
Young people not only in Vietnam but all over the world are more and more interested in the minimalist style, green lifestyle and product personalization. Thanks to its simple look, and made from reusable materials, canvas bags are loved by many fashionistas around the world. Combined with the unique images on the bag, Fabric bags become a perfect choice when you go out shopping and having fun with friends. Despite being an inexpensive item, fabric bags are finding their place in the fashion industry.
In addition, an indispensable application of cloth bags is the ability to advertise your brand. At many events or fairs, brands take advantage of this opportunity to meet customers to give customers their branded canvas bags. The more people use canvas bags printed with the brand's logo, will help their brand spread further.
4. Fabric bag printing technologies
In Vietnam, the 3 most popular technologies or techniques when printing cloth bags are heat transfer printing, mesh/silk printing and embroidery.
1. Heat transfer printing of fabric bags
Heat transfer printing uses the principle of sublimation of ink in high temperature to apply images and logos from paper to fabric bags. Fabric bags that can be applied to this form of printing such as non-woven fabrics or canvas fabrics (With Polyester) are fabrics with a high polyester content that helps the fabric to absorb ink easily.
Most manufacturing facilities in Vietnam now use hand presses that press each bag onto the ink-printed paper layer.
2. Mesh printing
Screen printing is a very popular form and has a long history in Vietnam. Thanks to the ability to create tiny holes in the mesh layer corresponding to the point to be printed, the Printer can print the images according to the customer's requirements.
This printing method is extremely suitable if the image you want to print on the bag is simple and has few colors. The price of this method is also generally cheaper than the heat transfer printing method
4. Embroidery
Embroidery is not considered a printing method, but it is also a way to help businesses put their company's logo on the bag. Embroidery has many limitations such as the embroidery size cannot be too large and the rental time also takes a long time.
In general, few businesses use this embroidery method because the cost is very expensive. However, with more and more customers willing to pay more for cloth bags, embroidery will still have a lot of growth opportunities in the future.
