For paper bag manufacturers, the choice of handles should match the packaging design and style. Handle size, color, and installation method should be considered from the beginning to ensure they meet the requirements of the finished product.
Mukti Djaya Talikur provides PP cords with Needle-Knitted construction for paper bag handle applications. Available colors and sizes follow the specifications listed in the product catalog on the Mukti Djaya Talikur website.
1. Review the Paper Bag Design First
Before choosing the cord, determine the paper bag dimensions, handle position, and handle attachment design. This information helps the team determine the appropriate cord size.
If the paper bag has a custom design, provide technical drawings or packaging samples so the requirements can be understood more accurately.
2. Match the Cord Size to the Installation Method
Make sure the cord size is suitable for the handle holes in the paper bag. To check this, try attaching the cord to the packaging material that will be used and see whether the result matches the design.
Do not determine the size based on photos alone. If the required size is still uncertain, conduct a trial using a cord sample or a mock-up of your paper bag assembly.
3. Determine the Required Color
The cord color can be matched to the paper bag for a coordinated appearance or selected as a visual accent to make the packaging more attractive. According to the Mukti Djaya Talikur website catalog, Needle-Knitted PP Cord is available in 46 color options. However, the availability of specific colors should still be confirmed before placing an order.
If your company has an established brand color, use an agreed color reference or sample to help maintain consistency. This also gives your purchasing and production teams a shared reference.
4. Check the Sample on the Finished Paper Bag
Inspect the cord after it has been attached to the paper bag or a mock-up assembly, rather than examining the cord separately from the packaging. Make sure the size, color, handle position, and installation result meet your company’s standards.
If the paper bag will be used to carry a specific load, visual suitability alone does not guarantee that the handles will be strong and safe enough for use. Testing should therefore take into account the packaging design, cord installation method, and intended application.
5. Keep a Record of the Approved Specifications
Once the sample and specifications have been approved, record the material, cord construction, size, color, and sample reference used. These records will help your team reproduce paper bags with the same design in future production runs.
