About The Steel City Bags Range

At Steel City, we know that when you put your logo on a product, you want it to be perceived as really good quality. That’s why we select logo branded bags that avoid the usual pitfalls: wrong sizes, awkward seams, or print that doesn’t land well.

Our approach is to make sure our processes are tight, so you can order a bag that actually carries what you’re handing out, keeps your branding looking strong, and – crucially – gets used by the recipient in their day-to-day life.

Right-Size Bag Shapes: We stick to the proven formats – open shoppers, gusseted shoppers, zipped totes, and paper gift bags – because we know those shapes work for the items you actually need to hand over. We want to ensure the bag is useful for the recipient, rather than ordering something that looks fine online but turns up too small for laptops, brochures, or retail purchases.
Clean Print Panels: We choose bags with generous print areas (e.g., 320 × 280mm, 300 × 250mm, 280 × 215mm) so your logo doesn’t get chopped by seams or handle stitching. This ensures your brand stands out and remains readable across the full order, giving you the maximum exposure you need.
Pantone-Safe Colour: We offer bold 1-colour printing and full-colour options, and we will always take a consultative approach to Pantone matching if your brand guidelines are tight. This ensures we avoid muddy prints and get you a solution that looks great, even under event hall lighting.
Event-Date Lead Times: We prioritise lines that typically run at around 5-7 working days from proof approval because we know how important deadlines are. If you’ve got a build day, launch, or show opening, this helps us back you every step of the way and ensures your items arrive when you need them.
Carry Styles People Reuse: We steer clients towards useful builds – gussets that hold their shape, and zip closures that keep contents safe when commuting. If a bag is flimsy or breaks, it reflects negatively on the brand, so we choose options that last and get used over and over again.
Recycled Claims You Can Back Up: Sustainability is a real buzzword, but it’s important we don’t greenwash. Our recycled options include rPET and traceability-led lines (including digital product passports on selected products) plus GRS-related materials. This gives you full traceability and a genuine eco-story to tell, rather than vague wording.
Flat Space For QR Codes: We think QR codes are really underutilized, so we keep bags with flatter, squarer front panels in the mix (e.g., 280 × 280mm, 270 × 220mm). This ensures codes remain scannable, allowing you to use the bag as a call to action or a link to a landing page.

The products listed here are the ones we suggest first – our benchmarks for print area, lead time, and quality, but we can narrow down bespoke options for you when your scale and timeline allow.

Bold 1-Colour Readability: We put the Black 8oz Canvas Shopper – 1 Colour forward because its 320 × 280mm 1-colour print area keeps your logo large and readable. This acts as a bit of an advertising board when you’re on a busy show floor, ensuring your brand isn’t lost at a distance.
Traceable Cotton Proof: Our pick of the AWARE Recycled 5oz Natural Cotton Shopper – 1 Colour comes from choosing a line with a digital product passport. This gives you full traceability on the recycled claim, so you can tick the sustainability box with confidence and without greenwashing.
Gusset That Holds Shape: We recommend the Natural 10oz Canvas Cotton Shopper – 1 Colour because the 10oz canvas and 420 × 380 × 100mm gusset mean it doesn’t go floppy once loaded with catalogues or a laptop. It’s a real boost for the recipient to have a bag that’s genuinely useful for the commute home.
Zip That Stops Spills: We chose the Panama Zipped Tote Bag – 1 Colour because the zipped top keeps contents secure on trains and in cars, where open totes might struggle. The 600D polyester is durable enough to handle day-to-day use, meaning your brand gets seen for longer.
Closed-Loop rPET Story: We include the Green & Innocent Ninga rPET Recron GreenGold Bag – 1 Colour because its 100% recycled plastic bottle build offers a fully traceable, closed-loop production story. This allows you to communicate exactly where the product came from, which is powerful for your brand narrative.
Paper That Doesn’t Crumple: We use the Ashdown Medium White Paper Gift Bag – Full Colour as our benchmark for retail presentation because the 200gsm paper resists creasing and the 287 × 220mm full-colour print area keeps artwork looking strong. You want the handover to feel high-quality, and this bag ensures the first impression lands well.

We keep our core range tight for a reason – proven shapes, strong print panels, reliable lead times – but within those benchmarks there’s still plenty of room to tailor the bag to your exact use case. Here’s how we guide clients through the choices.

Step 1: Choose the Right Material for the Job

Start with how and where the bag will be used.

Lightweight Cotton (5oz) – Ideal for large-volume giveaways where cost and packability matter. Best for brochures, leaflets and lighter event handouts.
Heavier Canvas (8oz-10oz) – Holds shape under weight. Suitable for catalogues, laptops and retail purchases. Delivers a more premium feel.
rPET / Recycled Polyester (e.g. 600D) – Durable, wipe-clean and ideal for commuting. Works well for zipped builds and structured totes.
Recycled & Traceable Lines (rPET, GRS-related, digital product passports) – Chosen when sustainability claims need to be evidenced, not implied.
200gsm Paper Gift Bags – Best for retail presentation, product launches and premium handovers where print impact is critical.

Material directly affects how colour prints (vibrancy and sharpness), how the bag holds weight, and how long it stays in circulation.

Step 2: Select the Size and Format

We default to proven shapes – open shoppers, gusseted shoppers, zipped totes and structured paper gift bags – because they work in real-world scenarios.

Within those formats you can tailor:

Standard sizes that accommodate laptops, A4 brochures or boxed products.
Extended gussets (e.g. 100mm depth) for bulkier contents.
Retail-proportioned gift bags for boxed items or merchandise.
Flat, square panels for QR-led campaigns.

If you need something outside standard dimensions – unusual depth, extra height, landscape orientation, or a specific internal capacity – we can scope fully bespoke sizing when timelines and volumes allow. That includes custom width, height and gusset depth to match exact product dimensions.

The objective is simple: the bag must comfortably carry what you’re distributing without distorting the print area.

Step 3: Decide on Print Technique

Not all print methods behave the same. The right choice depends on artwork complexity, material and required durability.

Screen Printing (1-2 Spot Colours)

Best for bold, high-contrast logos.
Produces strong, opaque colour blocks.
Excellent durability on cotton and canvas.
Cost-effective at volume.

Full-Colour Transfer / Digital Printing

Suitable for gradients, photography and detailed artwork.
Ideal when brand guidelines demand tonal accuracy.
Works particularly well on smoother fabrics and paper surfaces.

Pantone-Matched Spot Printing

Used when brand colour accuracy is non-negotiable.
Ensures consistency across campaigns and reorders.

Engraving / Debossing (on selected builds)

Creates a tactile, premium finish.
Subtle branding effect rather than high-contrast visibility.
Often used on structured or retail-style bags.

If the priority is maximum visibility on a busy show floor, bold 1-colour screen print often wins. If the aim is photographic retail presentation, full-colour print is typically the stronger route.

Step 4: Choose Your Design Placement

Clean print panels are central to how we shortlist products. Once the bag style is confirmed, you can determine placement:

Front Panel Only – The most common option. Acts as a walking billboard.
Front and Back – Doubles exposure in event environments.
Full Wrap (Paper Bags) – Ideal for immersive retail branding.
Lower Panel Placement – More subtle, often used for premium positioning.
Side Gussets – Works well for repeating logos or pattern extensions.
Near-Handle Positioning – Useful for secondary marks or taglines.
QR Code Zones – Placed on flatter, uninterrupted panels for reliable scanning.

We ensure artwork avoids seams, folds and handle stitch points so the final result looks deliberate rather than compromised.

Step 5: Match Bag Colour to Your Brand

Colour pairing affects visibility more than most people realise.

High-Contrast Approach – Dark ink on natural cotton or white paper maximises readability at distance.
Tone-on-Tone Premium Look – Subtle contrast for understated, higher-end positioning.
Bold Bag Base with White Print – Works well in event halls where lighting can dull darker inks.
Natural Cotton Bases – Slightly soften bright Pantones compared to coated paper or polyester.
Polyester / rPET Surfaces – Tend to hold colour vibrancy more sharply.

If your brand guidelines are strict, we align ink to Pantone references and test for how the base fabric will influence perceived shade.

Step 6: Select Handle Style and Length

Handle choice changes both appearance and usability.

Standard Shoulder-Length Cotton Handles – Everyday practicality.
Longer Drop Lengths – Better for winter coats and commuting.
Short Carry Handles – More retail-focused aesthetic.
Reinforced Stitching – Recommended for heavier loads.
Rope Handles (Paper Bags) – Traditional retail presentation.
Ribbon Handles – Softer, premium gifting feel.
Die-Cut Handles (Paper) – Clean, minimal profile.

The handle needs to suit how the bag will be carried – across a trade show floor, onto public transport, or handed over in-store.

Step 7: Confirm Durability and Use Case

Before sign-off, we sense-check:

Expected load weight
Frequency of reuse
Indoor vs outdoor use
Event-only vs long-term circulation

A well-chosen bag becomes a repeat-use item. A poorly matched one becomes waste. Our role is to ensure yours falls firmly in the first category.

We've used Steel City for some physical collateral, not only is this of fantastic quality but the service and communication is impeccable. Would highly recommend if you're looking for a full end-to-end service.

Great service from the team from recommendation of products through to design and delivery. Would highly recommend!

Excellent products — durable and great quality. The service from all the staff was exceptional throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Steel City again and would definitely recommend them.

Second time ordering from Steel City. The team has been marvellous once again. Very attentive to my requests, and in this occasion - very short deadline. They were quick to respond, and delivered on time in spite of the challenge of time. Always respond quickly and very proactive. I highly recommend this company for any marketing needs. Their brouchure is full of ideas and nothing is out of reach. Thank you once again team!

Just wanted to share some overwhelmingly positive feedback about James and his incredible team. I recently placed a very small, but crucial, order for an embroidered puffa jacket. My original supplier completely let me down, calling late on a Friday afternoon (3:00 PM) to push the committed delivery date from Tuesday to Thursday, which was too late for our filming schedule. In a panic, I called James's team at 3:05 PM that same Friday, honestly expecting a firm "no." However, I was met with unbelievably helpful and flexible service. The team, specifically Rowan and David, were absolutely first class! They went above and beyond, making it seem like nothing was too much trouble. Thanks to their efforts, the jacket will now be delivered on Wednesday—a whole day before we need it for filming! This is old-school customer service at its very best. I can't thank James and the team enough and will absolutely be ordering from them again in the future. Highly, highly recommend!

“Really happy with service from start to finish! Quick turnaround from ordering to receiving products.”

Steel City supplied magnets for us recently on behalf of one of our charity sector clients. Both David & Rowan from initial quote, through to overseeing the project itself were brilliant. Very pleased with the finished product, and quicker than initially expected. Thanks again, Marc

Excellent customer service throughout the whole process - from initial contact through to delivery. I was kept informed at each stage. Friendly and helpful staff. Thanks.

Ordered loads of branded merch from them (we're talking in the 1000s) multiple times over the past few years and they never fail to be absolutely spectacular with their customer service, general friendliness and their helpfulness! The merch is top notch quality, and will happily continue using Steel City for many orders to come! Hugely recommend!

We have ordered several branded products from Steel City, and we have been extremely impressed by both the quality of the products themselves and also the service we've received from their fantastic team. Georgia in particular has been brilliant - her friendly demeanour and genuine willingness to help us make the right decisions for our business made the entire process seamless. No question was too trivial, and no request was ever too much trouble for her. Steel City has earned our trust as a reliable and customer-focused company, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality branded products with exceptional service to match. Thanks guys!

I have known Steel City Marketing for many, many years and always find them extremely professional. The whole process: from responding to my initial inquiry; through to tracking delivery is managed in a super professional way. On top of that - they are lovely, friendly people ... highly recommended :-)

Seamless from start to finish. Very helpful company, brilliant product and delivery on time. Couldn't recommend more.

We are delighted with our branded hoodies. The team are a pleasure to work with and provided an excellent service on a tight deadline. Thoroughly recommend Steel City Marketing.

Good quality products, competitively priced with excellent communications throughout the whole process.

Requirements met quickly, professionally and customer service was 100%. Well done to Georgia and Rowan

Fabulous fast and friendly service, cracking banner :)

Very helpful and friendly customer service, and great job on pin badges produced for our Freshers campaign

Absolutely A-1 in every area. From design, to communication, to delivery, processing, speed, quality of products - exceptional!

My first time using Steel City BM, what a great service, we delayed things and messed them about a bit but they still came up trumps, got the merchandise we wanted, printed with our Logos and delivered within the very short timeframe we gave them, excellent service. I would highly recommend using them

I am a repeat customer for a good reason and have been for years. Never let me down, courteous, friendly service, quality goods, lovely efficient firm to deal with (exemplary COMMUNICATION as well, which seems to be a commodity fast diminishing between client and supplier these days) and going forward I’ll be back again - at least twice a year with ever increasing volumes. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Great firm.

Really easy to work with and the merch was great quality

Recently sourced products from Steel City and couldn't be happier! From the initial enquiry to the delivery of the products, every step of the process was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. The quality is exceptional, the customer service is outstanding, and the delivery was prompt. I highly recommend them to any business looking for reliable, high-quality suppliers. Thank you for exceeding our expectations!

Ordered a bulk order of 500 branded notepads on the Monday and they had been delivered on the Friday! Impressively fast. Great quality products, and the customer service is the best i've experienced- both Rowan the Sales Administrator and Debbie the Account Manager were excellent, very rapid email response with all the info needed. We will continue to use Steel City for our company's branded merch.

Can't rate the team at Steel City Marketing highly enough. I've ordered a few different promotional items just recently and every single time, from start to finish, the service from Georgia & Rowan in particular, has been first class. Each item we have had (leather key fobs, feather flags and printed bags) are of an excellent quality and have been produced to a very high standard. I've always been pleasantly surprised at the quality, speed and with the exceptional service this company has always fulfilled our orders.

Brilliant service from start to finish. Rowan went that 'extra mile' to keep me informed on progress.

Highly recommend Steel City for all promotional items and gifts. The team were very helpful and supportive in helping us source what we were looking for and sent multiple free samples for us to test the quality prior to us making a final decision. Highly recommend Steel City and look forward to working with them again in the future. - Review on behalf of AUMA Actuators Ltd.

“As always, the service was fast and reliable with my favourite bit being the communication. As a customer you know exactly what to expect at every point of the process because your expectations are managed beautifully and all information is communicated well.”

Excellent service and produced items once again from Debbie and the whole team at Steel City. I won't go anywhere else for my promo items.

Super speedy process and the team were on hand throughout! Highly recommend - thank you again!

Fantastic experience using Steel City from the minute I emailed James about my requirements to the finished product being delivered. Can't speak highly enough of Rowan for her regular communication and letting me know how things are progressing.

Great experience of using Steel City, nothing was too much trouble, everyone within the team that we dealt with were really helpful, will definitely be using them again!

Good Products, good service - kept informed all the way - Steel City met my expectations which are pretty high - nicely done SC...

The team at Steel City have been extremely helpful whilst ordering new merchandise for a small charity. They came up with suggestions for the products, enhanced the logo and offered an excellent price. Overall very friendly and efficient and we are delighted with the final products.

Excellent customer service and communication, good turnaround times and a quality product. Many Thanks!
