Paper bags for food service and takeaway orders
Food service bags should fit the packaged meals, cups, boxes and sets that customers carry together. AWIH offers ready-made paper bags and custom logo printing for restaurants, cafés, bakeries, confectioners and catering businesses.
An outer bag for packaged meals and products
A paper bag carries products already placed in suitable boxes, cups or containers. It does not replace packaging intended for direct food contact. Base width, the height of the set and total weight all matter, so check the actual arrangement of containers before approving a size.
A base that fits your containers
The size should help prevent packed boxes from tipping while leaving enough room to insert the set comfortably.
Handles suited to collection
We select flat or twisted handles according to the weight and how the completed order will be carried.
A clear print for your business
A logo, website address or simple message can be printed using a method suited to the paper and quantity.
Repeat orders
For regular use, specify your monthly requirements and the number of sizes you need.

View this option →How do you measure a food service set?
Arrange your largest typical order in its final containers and measure the width, depth and height. Include the total weight, expected quantity of bags, paper colour and print content. If you use several types of box, send their dimensions. This allows us to suggest an existing size or assess the need for a custom design.
How is an order prepared?
Measuring containers
We check the arrangement of boxes, cups and other items in the set.
Selecting the size
We compare base width, height and handle type with the intended load.
Printing your branding
We match the logo size and printing method to the paper and quantity.

Before placing a larger order, check the physical fit of your containers in the selected bag size.

Frequently asked questions
Can the paper bag be in direct contact with food?
The bag shown is intended to carry products in suitable individual packaging. Direct food contact requirements must be checked separately for the specific material and application.
How do I choose the bag’s base width?
Measure the actual arrangement of closed containers. The base should accommodate their dimensions and allow the set to be inserted without squeezing.
Can you print a restaurant logo?
Yes. The method depends on the bag type, artwork, number of colours and quantity. A vector logo is preferred.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The minimum depends on the bag type and printing method. Check the calculator or ask our sales team to confirm it in your quotation.
