Eco-Friendly Bags & Packaging Trends
The shift is from disposable to reusable: retail and event buyers increasingly specify bags that survive more than one trip. In practice that means 80–120 gsm non-woven, cotton and canvas, or laminated non-woven for weather resistance.
Around the world, single-use plastics are being phased out and consumers increasingly prefer reusable, natural and sustainable packaging. Custom bags are at the heart of this shift.
The drivers behind the trend
- Plastic bag bans in many US states, the EU and more countries are pushing shoppers toward reusable bags
- Consumer preferences — shoppers increasingly choose brands that are visibly sustainable
- Brand image — an eco-friendly bag itself communicates your values
