Custom tote bags built around your brand
A tote does two jobs at once — it carries the product, and it carries the brand. That double duty is what makes it one of the simplest, most cost-effective packaging choices a business can make.
Selmore manufactures custom tote bags for companies, retailers, event organisers and promotional teams that want a bag built around their actual product and identity, not picked from a stock catalogue.
Retail packaging, a corporate event giveaway, an exhibition freebie or a full promotional run — we build to the brief rather than adjusting the brief to fit a generic product.
If you have outgrown generic promotional bags and want more control over how the finished product looks and performs, that is where custom manufacturing earns its keep.
Both are fabric-based, and the right answer depends entirely on how often the bag will actually be used. Here is the honest comparison.
The go-to for brands that want something simple, soft-textured and versatile — shopping, events, corporate handouts, product packaging or everyday carrying. The fabric takes branding well and adapts to a wide range of design styles.
When a bag needs to hold up under regular use — not just a single event handout — canvas is usually the better call. Heavier and more structured, and it reads as more premium, which matters if the bag represents the brand over the long haul.
Fabric weight, dimensions and construction should match what the bag is actually going to carry and how often. A lightweight event giveaway and a daily-use retail piece do not need the same specification.
The real value shows up after the handover. Once a customer starts reusing the bag for shopping, commuting or travel, your branding gets repeat exposure you did not have to pay for twice.
For a low-cost promotional item, that ongoing visibility is hard to match.
The heavier weave holds up to repeated use far better than lightweight fabric.
The texture alone gives the bag a sturdier, more finished feel straight out of the box.
A larger surface area means logos, taglines or full graphic prints have space to actually land.
A well-made canvas tote gets carried again and again — which means your branding does too.
From retail packaging to corporate gifting to exhibition giveaways, the same base construction adapts well.
Producing a tote properly involves more than cutting fabric and sewing handles — material choice, dimensions, print method, handle construction and finishing all shape how the final bag looks and holds up.
We start by understanding size, material, quantity, artwork and how the bag will actually be used.
Cotton, canvas or another fabric is chosen based on the construction the bag needs.
Fabric is cut and prepared to the agreed dimensions and design.
Your logo, artwork or campaign design is applied using the appropriate print method.
Panels, handles and any additional components are assembled into the finished bag.
Every batch is checked for construction, print accuracy and overall finish before it ships.
This step-by-step approach is what keeps large orders consistent — batch 500 shouldn't look different from batch 1.
Ordering hundreds or thousands of bags calls for more than a product catalogue — it needs a manufacturer that can hold specifications and consistency across the full run. Size, material, printing, quantity and delivery planning are worked out before production starts.
If you are comparing manufacturing options, weigh the full picture — material consistency, stitching quality, print accuracy, production capacity and how responsive the communication is — rather than sorting suppliers by price alone.
The right bag depends entirely on how it will be used. A lightweight promotional tote is fine for a one-off event; a retail brand handing bags out daily probably needs a heavier canvas build with reinforced handles and a more premium finish.

Shopping, retail packaging, corporate promotions, events, exhibitions, gifting and everyday carrying — it is one of the more flexible reusable bag formats out there.
Yes — logo, artwork, brand messaging and campaign designs can all be built in based on what you send us.
Mainly cotton and canvas, chosen depending on the look, strength and application you need.
Yes. They are a practical branding surface, low-cost to produce in bulk, and get reused enough to keep generating visibility well after the campaign ends.
Both are fabric-based, but canvas is heavier and more structured, which makes it better suited to frequent or long-term use. Cotton is lighter and softer — good for shorter campaigns or a cleaner, simpler look.
Material, size, fabric weight, order quantity, print complexity, handle construction and stitching all factor into the final price.
