CANVAS MATERIAL GUIDE

Choose the Right Canvas Weight for Your Tote Bag

Canvas weight influences structure, feel, decoration discussion, shipping weight and unit cost. Use it to prepare a useful specification, not as a substitute for technical confirmation.

Canvas weight comparison

This is a general selection reference. Confirm final specifications with an approved sample and technical review; no tested load capacity is implied by fabric weight alone.

Five decisions to review together

01

Bag structure

Canvas weight helps define the starting level of shape and body, alongside gusset and base construction.

02

Decoration review

Artwork detail, print placement and fabric surface should be reviewed together.

03

Shipping and cost

Fabric choice contributes to packed weight and unit cost, both needing a project-specific quotation.
