Horizontal paper bags Industry knowledge

Yiwu Hosie Crafts Co., Ltd. is a Horizontal paper bags manufacturer producing custom retail and gift packaging for wholesalers, distributors, retailers, brand owners and packaging suppliers. Every order is built from confirmed specifications — bag size, paper grade, bottom construction, handle type, printing and surface finish — and we run OEM production from your artwork alongside ODM development from a reference image, sketch or product concept. The horizontal format suits products that are wider than they are tall: folded apparel, footwear, boxed gift sets, books and albums, and multi-item collections that sit flat and present well on a shelf.

Our factory runs Heidelberg printing presses and fully automated post-press lines, keeping printing through to finished bags in one production flow. We hold ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification, operate under amfori-BSCI social responsibility requirements and the Disney Supplier Code of Conduct, and supply international retail chains including MINISO, DAISO and American Greetings.

Horizontal paper bag production at a glance

  • OEM and ODM development, from supplied artwork files or from a concept and reference images
  • Bag-making and post-press capacity up to 150,000 gift bags per day
  • ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001; amfori-BSCI and Disney Supplier Code of Conduct compliance
  • Seven-stage inspection sequence from incoming material through pre-shipment

Our Horizontal Paper Bag Range

Three production formats cover most horizontal bag projects. Each one is adapted in size, material, handle and finish rather than ordered as a fixed stock item, so a single order can carry several designs for different product lines or seasons.

Horizontal Gift Packaging Bags With Handles

Gift and retail presentation bags with fitted handles, sized around the packed product. Suited to apparel, boxed gift sets, cosmetics sets and seasonal collections where the bag is part of the presentation.

Horizontal Paper Shopping Bag with Rope Handles

A carry-oriented shopping format with rope handles, built for retail floors, promotional programmes and event giveaways where the bag is handled repeatedly and must hold its shape.

Horizontal Paper Gift Bag with Handles

Gift bag construction with handle and finishing options for holiday, wedding and corporate gifting, produced in multiple designs within one wholesale order.

Projects needing a tall format for bottles, single garments or narrow boxes are produced from our vertical paper bags range, and the wider custom paper bag programme covers coordinated bag, box and notebook sets for the same brand.

Where the Horizontal Format Fits

A horizontal bag works when the product's width exceeds its height. The bag cradles the item instead of leaving empty space above it, which keeps the contents stable in transit and gives a cleaner silhouette on display.

  • Folded apparel — shirts, sweaters and scarves that lay flat and fill the bag footprint
  • Footwear and boxed goods — shoe boxes, watch boxes and perfume sets that would sit loose in a tall bag
  • Books and albums — coffee-table books, photo albums and large-format print that must not bend
  • Multi-item sets — bath sets, babywear and gift collections grouped as one presentation
  • Flat food gifts — wrapped chocolates, biscuits and small trays

We confirm internal dimensions against the packed product plus any tissue, sleeve or insert, then set the side gusset and bottom size so the bag stands and closes without strain.

Structure and Handle Engineering

The bottom carries the load, so its construction is specified against product weight rather than appearance. A standard flat bottom — folded and glued into a rectangular floor — handles light to moderate loads such as clothing and books. For wider bags and heavier contents we build reinforced bottoms: a chipboard or cardboard insert glued into the base, a double layer of heavier base paper, or gusseted corners that spread stress away from the creases.

  • Bottom gusset of at least 2 in for stability on wide formats
  • Cleanly creased fold lines so the base sets flat when opened
  • Evenly applied glue on the tabs, checked at in-process and final inspection

Handle drop length changes how the bag is carried, not only how it looks. We match drop to bag depth and expected load so the bag balances when lifted.

Handle type and drop Typical use Carry behaviour What we confirm
Paper rope, short drop In-store carry, light gifts Compact, hand carry only Rope diameter, twist, anchor patch size
Cotton rope, medium drop (4–6 in) General retail, moderate loads Comfortable hand carry Rope width, colour, knot or eyelet fixing
PP rope, shoulder drop (8 in or more) Shopping bags, heavier items Distributes weight over the shoulder Rope gauge, weld strength, handle reinforcement
Ribbon or flat handle Gift and premium presentation Soft hand feel, lighter loads Ribbon width, fold-over depth, adhesive area
Reinforced bottom with long drop Wide bags with heavier contents Stable base, balanced carry Base insert material, gusset depth, load check

Materials, Printing and Finishing

Paper choice follows the load and the print result. Kraft gives a natural surface and good tear resistance for retail and promotional bags; art paper and coated paper carry fine detail and solid brand colour; specialty papers support premium gift programmes. Paper weight is matched to product weight and packing method so the bag holds its shape without creasing badly at the gusset.

Specification area Options we produce What it controls Information we need
Bag size Width, height, side gusset, bottom size Product fit, standing stability Packed product dimensions and weight
Paper Kraft paper, art paper, coated paper, specialty paper Strength, print result, surface feel Product weight, packing method, finish
Paper weight Matched to product weight and packing method Load capacity, crease behaviour Load per bag, whether an insert is used

Packaging Polybag, OPP bag, paper sleeve, gift box, retail pack, carton Retail readiness, transit protection Retail or bulk packing, label and barcode needs

Capacity, Quality Control and Acceptance

Bag-making runs on automated post-press lines fed by Heidelberg presses, with capacity up to 150,000 gift bags per day across the bag lines. Batch consistency comes from the inspection sequence rather than from a final check alone, and each stage is recorded so a batch can be traced back to its material and print run.

  1. Incoming material inspection
  2. Printing inspection
  3. In-process inspection
  4. Finishing inspection
  5. Final product inspection
  6. Packing inspection
  7. Pre-shipment inspection

Acceptance checks cover appearance, dimensions, printing, structure, quantity and packaging. Bulk production follows the approved sample or the confirmed specification, and where a project requires it a pre-production sample is approved before the run starts. Certification scope covers quality, environmental and occupational health and safety management, and our social compliance programme follows amfori-BSCI requirements and the Disney Supplier Code of Conduct.

OEM and ODM Development Path

OEM work starts from your design file, artwork or product specification. ODM work starts from a product concept, reference images or basic requirements, and we assist with structure, material selection, sampling and production development.

  1. Customer artwork production
  2. Existing product customization
  3. New product development
  4. Structure optimization
  5. Prototype development
  6. Sample production
  7. Pre-production approval
  8. Mass production

Depending on the project, samples are provided as a digital sample, prototype, physical sample, pre-production sample, existing product sample, or a custom sample built from your artwork or reference.

Information We Use to Configure Your Solution

A quotation and configuration are prepared from the working point of the bag, not from a catalogue number. These inputs let us confirm structure, material, handle and packing in one pass.

  • Product type and how the bag will be used
  • Reference images, sketch or an existing sample
  • Artwork or logo files, if available
  • Required bag size, or the packed product dimensions
  • Preferred material and paper weight, if specified
  • Estimated quantity per design or SKU
  • Packaging requirements — retail, individual or bulk
  • Target market and sales channel
  • Required delivery date

For print-ready work we review artwork dimensions, bleed, colour mode, resolution, die-cut requirements and printing feasibility together, so any adjustment is agreed before plates and materials are committed.

Packaging, Carton Data and Repeat Orders

Packing is set to how the bags are received — on a retail shelf, in a warehouse or in a distribution centre. Options include individual polybag, OPP bag, paper sleeve, individual gift box, retail packaging, custom labels and barcode or SKU labels, with bulk packing, inner cartons and export cartons for shipment.

Once product and packaging specifications are confirmed, we provide carton data for sourcing and shipping arrangements: units per carton, carton dimensions, net weight, gross weight and CBM, together with custom carton markings where required. Repeat orders follow the previously confirmed artwork, materials, specifications and packaging information, which keeps the same product line consistent across subsequent runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you produce horizontal paper bags from an existing sample or reference image?

Yes. Send an existing sample, reference image or the product information you have. We assess bag structure, size, material, printing and packaging requirements, then develop the bag from the confirmed specification.

Can a project start before the artwork is finished?

Yes. A logo, sketch, reference image or product concept is enough to begin. We confirm the basic bag structure and production requirements first, then identify the artwork information still needed for the next stage.

Can several designs run in one order?

Horizontal paper bags can be produced in multiple designs or SKUs for different brands, product lines, seasons or promotions. Quotation and production requirements are confirmed against the quantity and specification of each design.

Do you supply private label bags with barcodes and SKU labels?

Yes. A private label project is customized with your logo, artwork, bag design, packaging, labels and barcode or SKU marking according to your brand requirements.

What is the minimum order quantity?

MOQ depends on the product and the customization involved. Provide the product specification and target quantity, and we confirm the MOQ and quotation for that specific project.

Can you also supply matching paper products for the same programme?

Yes. If a project also needs notebooks, gift boxes, wrapping paper, greeting cards or other paper packaging, send the requirements together and we assess supply and packing arrangements for the full set.
