Luxury paper bags
extend the boutique experience
The paper bag carries the boutique experience out onto the street. Carried by hand, it becomes the most visible and most shared brand medium. Esprit du Luxe designs and sources personalised luxury paper bags: creative papers, cotton, ribbon or leather handles, custom printing, hot foil stamping and matt or gloss finishes.
We work on formats suited to your products and packaging, paying particular attention to the structure and strength of the bag and to consistency with the rest of your range.
What we make
Boutique shopping bags in several sizes, gift bags, reinforced-base bags for heavy boxes, bottle bags, event and show bags, paper pouches for small items. We design the complete range so that each size keeps the same proportions, materials and finishes.
Materials and finishes
Coated papers, textured or through-dyed creative papers, premium kraft, offset printing with organic inks, hot foil stamping, embossing, spot varnish or biodegradable lamination. Cotton, satin ribbon, rope or leather handles, eyelets, board base, magnetic or ribbon closure for gift versions.
Eco-design
Certified or recycled papers offered first, organic inks, biodegradable lamination or varnish without lamination, natural-fibre handles, solvent-free glues. A well-made paper bag is reused several times by the client: we work on strength and weight for that, without excess material.
From brief to delivery
Study of the range of sizes from your products and packaging, paper and finish proposals on samples, blank mock-up to validate the structure, then printed prototype. Production is entrusted to a selected partner; we follow it, inspect it and deliver to your points of sale or logistics.
Quantities, lead times and budget
Small series for an event or a pop-up, regular series for a network of stores. Minimum quantities vary with the paper and the manufacturing method and are stated in the quotation. Lead times take into account the supply of creative papers. We optimise unit cost through the choice of sizes and the grouping of runs.
Who we work with
Luxury houses, independent boutiques, watchmakers and jewellers, chocolatiers and delicatessens, hotels, galleries, cosmetics brands. Esprit du Luxe designs luxury paper bags from Geneva for clients in Switzerland and abroad.
