What Sets This Tote Apart

Largest cotton print area: At 12″ W x 8″ H, you get nearly twice the imprint space of our other cotton bags. This matters for detailed logos, multi-line messaging, illustrated designs, and event-specific graphics. The flat, wide front panel gives designers a full canvas to work with.

Deepest gusset in the cotton line: The 5″ gusset creates real volume — this bag holds a grocery haul, a stack of books, conference materials, or a curated gift package without items spilling over the top. It also means the bag stands upright on its own, which looks better at retail displays, event tables, and in car trunks.

Fully biodegradable: Unlike non-woven polypropylene bags that persist in landfills for decades, this cotton tote breaks down naturally when composted. For businesses making environmental claims, the biodegradability story is clean and defensible — no asterisks, no qualifications.

100-unit minimums: Low minimums make this bag accessible for small businesses, local organizations, and first-time buyers testing cotton bags. You don't need to commit to thousands of units to get started with cotton.
