Twisted handle
The workhorse of retail and food delivery. A twisted kraft-paper rope handle, glued to a reinforced patch inside the turnover.
How it is made
The handle is formed from kraft paper spun into a rope, then set into a reinforcing patch behind the bag's turnover top. That patch is what lets the bag carry a loaded weight without the handle pulling through the paper — handle placement, patch alignment and glue coverage are all held to spec across the run.
We run this construction across the full H2010–H2020 size range in kraft and white, with print to the bag's full front and back panels.
