At Mid-Atlantic Packaging, you know we’re always working hard to deliver new products to you as often as we can.

And this month is no exception! So without further ado, we’re excited to announce the release of an entirely new product line. We also want to tell you about the new colors we’ve added to one of our bestselling products.

Introducing…The Duet Shopping Bag

Allow us to introduce our new product line: tints on duet paper shopping bags! As one of the most popular shopping bag options on the market today, there’s almost no end to the things you can put inside these versatile paper shopping bags.
And since we’re also all about being as eco-friendly as possible, we love the double duty these bags can do. Talk about reduce-reuse-recycle…your customers will love all the countless uses these gorgeously colored bags can be repurposed for. After they’ve served their first purpose (sending your customer home with their purchases safely and prettily wrapped) they can be repurposed for something else entirely! Customers love reusing a great bag, and these live up to their expectations.

Store owners and customers alike especially love the durability of the duet shopping bag. They have a sturdy twisted handle that offers extra support for whatever the products inside are, while still being comfortable for the customer carrying them.

Even better?

These bags offer you lots of options when it comes to easy storage. They fold neatly and take up very little room – so if you’re tight on space and storage, these bags are the perfect fit!

They can easily slide in a small compartment underneath your register, or simply hang off a hook you’ve installed.

Don’t Forget to Customize!

Duet shopping bags can be easily customized, offering you lots of prime branding real estate to play around with. What can be included on your custom branded bags? The options are virtually endless. You can print your company’s name, logo, phone number, address, business hours, and even social media handles! Make your marketing dollars go the extra mile and let your custom branded bags do some serious work for you.

Why Customize?

Is it worth it? Doesn’t it cost more money? If you’re not currently custom printing your packaging, take a look at this. According to the 2014 Contract Packaging Association and The Paper Worker, more the half of consumers say they’ll shop with the same retailer again in the future if their purchases come in “above average or premium” packaging .

But even if you don’t go with a customized option, these bags can still make beautiful giftwrapping options for your customers. It’s always a good idea to order a few ribbons or bows, and even to have gift tags on hand for those customers who may be getting a gift at the last minute!

Finally, we love the wide range of colors these bags come in – pretty much all the colors of the rainbow! Why not order a variety of each color to keep things exciting?

New Tints On Kraft Bags

Want to know what we learned recently? You can teach an old dog new tricks! And in this case, the old dog is our kraft bags, and the new tricks come in the form of some amazing new colors.

Be sure to check out our new tints on the good ol’ standby, our popular kraft paper shopping bags. With three new gorgeous color options like aqua, charcoal, and azalea, matte tints on kraft paper shopping bags are still all the rage this year.

If you’re looking for options that are exactly your store colors, and not just “close enough,” we’ve got you covered! Now, we offer a total of 14 rich, deep toned hues in matte colors for you to choose from. What’s not to love about that?
