Custom Non-Woven Bags in the UAE

Non-woven bags are reusable carry bags made from spun-bonded polypropylene (PP) fabric, usually 60–120 GSM. They are light, strong, water-resistant and recyclable, which is why they are one of the most popular replacements for single-use plastic bags in the UAE. Bag2Pack supplies and custom-prints them in any size, colour and handle style.

Since the UAE’s nationwide ban on single-use plastic shopping bags took effect on 1 January 2024, retailers, pharmacies, restaurants and event organisers across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and the Northern Emirates have moved to reusable alternatives. Non-woven bags are usually the first choice because they balance cost, strength and print quality better than most other materials.

Bag2Pack produces non-woven bags for every budget and use — from economical D-cut giveaway bags to premium laminated box bags that customers keep and reuse for years. Every bag can carry your logo, so your packaging keeps advertising your brand long after the sale.

Why UAE Businesses Choose Non-Woven Bags

  • Cost-effective at scale — lower unit cost than cotton, jute or canvas for the same size.
  • Strong and reusable — carry several kilograms and survive repeated use.
  • Water-resistant — suitable for the UAE’s humid coastal climate and chilled grocery items.
  • Brandable — screen, flexo, DTF and laminated printing in any Pantone colour.
  • Regulation-friendly — a practical reusable alternative under the UAE single-use plastic bag rules.

An Honest Note on Sustainability

Non-woven bags are made from polypropylene, so they are reusable and recyclable where recycling facilities exist — they are not biodegradable or compostable. Their environmental benefit comes from being used many times instead of once. If you need a plant-based material, see our Cotton Bags, Jute Bags and Kraft Paper Bags.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What are non-woven bags made of?

Non-woven bags are made from polypropylene fibres that are bonded together with heat and pressure instead of being woven. The result is a light, fabric-like material that is strong, water-resistant and easy to print.

Are non-woven bags biodegradable?

No. Non-woven PP bags are reusable and recyclable, but they are not biodegradable. Choose cotton, jute or kraft paper bags if you need a plant-based material.

Which non-woven bag is best for a retail shop in Dubai?

Loop handle or box bags suit most fashion and lifestyle stores because they look premium and carry more. Pharmacies and small boutiques often use D-cut bags to keep costs low.

Can you print my logo on non-woven bags?

Yes. We print logos and full artwork using screen, flexo, DTF or laminated printing, depending on your design, quantity and budget.
