Florist bags for
bouquets and plants.
A bouquet travels better upright, in a bag cut to its stems. Kraft for the hand-tied bunch, laminated colour for the flower box, cotton for the market regular. Each one carries your shop name.
At your door in about 4 weeks by air, or 6 to 11 weeks by sea.
Which bag for which job.





How to size a bouquet bag.
Measure two things: the width of the bouquet at its base, wrap included, and its height from the stems to the top of the heads.
The gusset takes the width of the base. Keep the bag shorter than the bouquet, so the heads stand clear of the top and nothing gets crushed.
Send both numbers with your quote and we suggest a size. Every bag is cut to your size at the same minimum and lead time as a standard one.
Paper and water.
A paper bag is not watertight. A bouquet that carries water travels in a sealed aqua pack or wrap, inside the bag.
Laminated paper resists drizzle and damp hands. Kraft is the natural look, with jute rope handles to match. Our guide Paper bag handle types shows every handle.
Standard sizes florists use.
| What you carry | The bag | Size (cm) |
|---|---|---|
| A posy or a potted herb | Kraft, small | 18 × 22 × 8 |
| A bottle with the flowers | Kraft, bottle | 12 × 39 × 10 |
| Flower boxes and gift sets | Laminated, medium | 32 × 26 × 11 |
| Larger pots and hat boxes | Kraft, large | 40 × 32 × 15 |
| Plants and market shopping | Cotton, gusseted | 35 × 40 × 10 |
Bouquet bags are cut to your stems. The full list of standard sizes is in the size guide.
Questions florists ask.
Can a paper bag hold a bouquet with water?
Yes, with the water sealed in an aqua pack or the wrap. The bag carries the bouquet, but paper is not watertight on its own.
What size bag for a bouquet?
Measure the width at the base and the height. Choose a gusset at least as wide as the base and a bag shorter than the bouquet, so the heads stand free.
Can I print flowers all over the bag?
Yes. Full colour print covers the whole face on kraft and laminated bags. Brown kraft warms whites and yellows, so pale florals print best on white kraft.
Will the handles hold a heavy pot?
Tell us the heaviest pot and we match the paper and handle to it. Kraft runs from 80 to 270gsm, with rope handles anchored under a reinforced top.
What is the minimum order?
1,000 units for kraft, laminated and cotton bags, and 5,000 for non-woven bags and pouches.
