Custom Mylar Bags – Direct Printed Mylar vs Labeled Mylar Bags

We often get questions about custom mylar bags and how they’re produced. There tends to be confusion about direct printed mylar bags vs blank mylar bags with labeled stickers. While those in the know might see stark contrasts, some still wonder why to use one versus the other. Many don’t even realize a labeled bag is just a bag with a sticker. But as they say, “beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” Or, weedholder in this situation.

Why would someone ever use custom-label mylar bags over direct printed custom mylar bags?

There are a few reasons. One is if they’re always changing strains or operate as a middleman that sources from multiple outlets. This type of customer might need branded packaging but also a wide mix of strains or selections. This is where having all of the options directly printed can become expensive. When one has a large mix of strains or products and wants them all to look unique, strain label bags are the ticket. But at the end of the day, the quality of the packaging is noticeably different from the direct printed bags.

When it comes to custom mylar bags, it’s hard to not love direct print. With the various options from Spot UV, foil stamping, windows, and child-resistant zippers, we could keep going. They are an easy and affordable way to package a lot of products in a cost-effective and professional look. Here at Custom 420, we have ASTM-certified child-resistant bags, required in all legal states. We encourage our customers to move forward sustainably and compliantly as laws continually change.
