Paper packaging solutions for brands, retailers, wholesalers, and distributors.
Our pointed bottom paper bags are made for food packaging. Tell us what you're packing, the size you need and how you'd like the bag to look. We'll help you work through the kraft paper specification, dimensions and printing details.
Choosing a pointed bottom paper bag starts with the food inside it. A single bakery item, a snack portion and food in an inner wrap can all need different amounts of room. The opening needs to make filling straightforward, while the height needs to leave enough paper to fold the top.
Our pointed bottom bags belong to the Custom Kraft Paper Bags range. You can discuss dimensions, paper specifications and exterior printing together, rather than choosing each detail separately. An existing bag or a photograph of your packed food is a useful place to start.

Measure the food as it will go into the bag, including any wrap, tray or other inner packaging. Check the widest part as well as the height. If an item only just passes through the opening, it may be awkward to pack during a busy service period. Leave some room for your team to place it inside without catching the edges.
Next, allow for the top fold. A bag can fit the food and still be too short to close comfortably. Tell us how you normally fold or close the top, and include a filled example if you have one. That makes it easier to discuss usable space instead of relying on the empty bag measurements alone.
The food and packing routine help determine the paper you need. Will the food touch the bag directly, or will there be an inner wrap? Is it packed warm? Will grease or moisture reach the paper? Include these details with your enquiry so we can check the paper specification for the job.
Paper weight, often shown as GSM, is only part of the choice. The bag size, folds and seams also matter when the bag is filled and handled. If you're replacing an existing bag, tell us what works well and what you'd like to change. A sample gives that discussion a much clearer starting point.
Think about the bag after it has been filled and folded. Which panel faces the customer? Where does the top fold sit? Keep the logo and important text in that visible area, clear of seams and folds that could interrupt the design. The finished bag is the best reference for planning the print layout.
For custom printed pointed bottom paper bags, send your artwork and a colour reference with the bag dimensions. If you need several sizes, let us know which design belongs to each size. The artwork needs to fit each set of panels, so a layout that works on one bag may need adjusting for another.
At a bakery counter or takeaway packing station, the bag has to work with the way people fill and hand over an order. Show us the food portion and any inner packaging, and explain the usual packing sequence. Those details help keep the discussion focused on how the bag will actually be used.
If you need a defined base area for your packed items, take a look at our Square Bottom Paper Bags as well. You can compare both bottom formats within the Custom Kraft Paper Bags range before settling on the dimensions for your order.
An existing bag is a helpful reference. Send its measurements and a photo showing it filled and closed. Point out anything you'd like to change, such as the opening, height or space for the top fold.
Yes. Let us know whether you want a plain bag or an exterior printed design. For printing, include the artwork and colour reference so we can check the layout against the paper and bag size.
Tell us how the food is packed, whether it touches the bag and how long it stays inside. We'll use those details to check the paper requirements. The bottom shape doesn't determine grease resistance.
Share the measurements of each packed portion. One bag size may leave too much space for a small item or too little folding room for a larger one. We can discuss the dimensions and artwork for each version.
These are confirmed with your quotation once the size, paper, printing and order quantity are clear. Include your delivery destination and required date so the quote addresses the order you have in mind.
Send the bag size or an existing sample, the food you pack, your estimated quantity and any artwork. If you're changing from another bag, tell us what you want to improve. Add your delivery destination, and we'll have the details needed to discuss your quotation.
