Hi, I have been looking for small tote bags that will look and feel like a natural canvas/linen or cotton, that will allow a vibrant colour print. I will be looking at smaller orders to begin with, the first bags I got where very white but sublimated really well. I would like a natural (creamish) finish that is good enough to show up the colours.
Cheers

Hi Hamm,
It's something we are pushing as an eco alternative to single use bags, a "bag for life" if you will.

Quick tip...
If you are going to do a lot of them, grab an OKI printer and use TMT 3.1 or FOREVER UNIVERSAL. Both excellent papers and will save you a fortune as you can purchase plain cotton totes at a fraction of the price.
Both papers do leave a hand feel, but for a tote bag it doesn't matter.

Cheers I'll investigate that one, how do the colours come out

Personally I think they are "punchier" than sublimation because the toner sits on top where as sublimation ink blends into the fabric
