Cotton string bags have quickly become one of the most sought after reusable alternatives for businesses and individuals across the UAE. Originally popularised in European farmers markets, these open weave mesh bags offer a uniquely breathable structure that keeps fresh produce ventilated, makes contents visible at a glance, and folds down to almost nothing when not in use. For companies looking to demonstrate genuine environmental commitment, branded cotton string bags speak louder than any corporate sustainability report because customers carry them visibly through supermarkets, beach outings, and daily errands.
What sets cotton string bags apart from other reusable bag options is their remarkable ability to stretch and accommodate items of varying shapes and sizes. A single medium bag can expand to hold a full week of fresh fruits and vegetables, yet weighs barely 80 grams on its own. When produced from organic or GRS certified recycled cotton, these bags represent a truly circular product that biodegrades naturally at the end of its long useful life. Our production facility in Dubai uses water based eco friendly inks and reinforced stitching techniques that ensure your brand message remains crisp and clear through hundreds of uses and washes.
The classic diamond pattern creates large openings between threads, providing maximum breathability for fresh produce. This traditional style allows air to circulate freely around fruits and vegetables, preventing moisture buildup and extending freshness. The open construction also means customers can see exactly what they are carrying, which is why organic grocers and farmers market vendors prefer this weave for their branded bags. Each diamond stretches uniformly to accommodate round and irregularly shaped items without straining the fibre.
A denser weave pattern with smaller openings provides better containment for small items like cherry tomatoes, herbs, and bulk grains. This style works particularly well for produce bags sold in sets, where each bag in the collection serves a different size category. The tighter construction also offers a smoother surface for screen printing, making it the preferred choice for businesses that want their logo to appear clean and detailed on the bag itself rather than on an attached tag.
Combining a solid cotton canvas bottom panel with mesh sides creates a bag that offers the breathability of string construction along with the structural support needed for heavier loads. The flat bottom section prevents items from poking through and provides an excellent branding surface for full colour heat transfer prints. Beach resorts and hotel gift shops throughout Dubai favour this style because it looks refined enough for retail while remaining functional enough for everyday shopping trips.
An artisanal style featuring hand finished crochet detailing that appeals to boutique retailers and lifestyle brands. The decorative pattern transforms a simple shopping bag into a fashion accessory that customers proudly carry as part of their personal style. This premium construction takes longer to produce but commands a higher perceived value, making it ideal for limited edition promotional runs, yoga studio merchandise, and wellness brand collaborations in Abu Dhabi and across the Emirates.

The handle design on a cotton string bag determines not only how it feels to carry but also where your branding appears most prominently. Short knotted handles in the traditional French market style sit neatly in the hand and suit customers who prefer carrying their bags at hip level. These handles are typically formed from the same cotton thread as the bag body, twisted together for strength. For businesses distributing bags at trade shows or outdoor events, the compact handle keeps everything streamlined and easy to fold into pockets or handbags when not in use.
Long shoulder strap handles have become the most popular configuration for promotional use across the UAE. With a drop length between 55 and 70 centimetres, these straps sit comfortably over the shoulder and leave both hands free, which is especially practical for customers navigating crowded markets or carrying children. The extended strap surface also doubles as a secondary branding area where you can print a tagline, website address, or social media handle alongside your main logo on the bag body.
Drawstring closures add a layer of security that standard open top bags lack. By threading a cotton cord through a reinforced channel at the bag opening, the entire contents can be cinched shut for transport. This configuration is particularly valued by hotel guests carrying valuables to the beach and by corporate clients distributing gift sets at events where recipients need to transport multiple items securely. We also offer toggle closures, snap button flaps, and velcro strip additions for clients who want a more polished finish without sacrificing the natural cotton aesthetic.
The iconic expandable mesh bag with short knotted handles that has been a staple of European markets for decades. When empty it rolls into a compact bundle that fits inside a jacket pocket. When loaded, the mesh stretches evenly to cradle up to 10 kilograms of groceries. Perfect for organic food shops and health stores looking to brand their customer experience with a bag that says sustainability without needing any words on it.
A modern interpretation featuring long webbing handles stitched to the mesh body. The over shoulder design appeals to younger demographics and works brilliantly as festival merchandise, university promotional items, and lifestyle brand giveaways. Available with reinforced base panels in contrasting colours, these bags bridge the gap between fashion accessory and functional shopping companion.
Sold in collections of three to five bags graded by size, these lightweight mesh pouches replace disposable plastic produce bags. Each set typically includes small bags for herbs and berries, medium bags for apples and onions, and large bags for leafy greens and bread. Supermarkets and organic retailers throughout the UAE brand these sets with their logo and sell them at checkout or include them in loyalty reward programmes.
Cotton mesh pouches with drawstring closures that serve double duty as gift wrapping and reusable storage bags. Popular with spa and wellness brands packaging gift sets, these bags come in sizes ranging from small jewellery pouches to large hamper wraps. The mesh texture adds a tactile element that looks charming while allowing recipients to glimpse the contents inside, creating anticipation before they even open the bag.
Oversized cotton string bags designed specifically for sand and water environments. The open weave allows sand to fall through rather than collecting at the bottom, making cleanup effortless after a day at the beach. Dubai and Abu Dhabi coastal hotels customise these bags with their property logo and distribute them as welcome amenities, knowing guests will carry them prominently along the waterfront throughout their stay.
Branded cotton string bags packaged as part of conference welcome kits or trade show giveaway bundles. These bags arrive flat packed for easy distribution and assembly, then expand to carry all the materials, brochures, and promotional items attendees collect during an event. Companies participating in exhibitions at Dubai World Trade Centre or Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre choose these over paper bags because they last far beyond the event itself.
The Global Organic Textile Standard is the leading certification for organic fibre processing. A GOTS label on your cotton string bags guarantees that the cotton was grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, processed using environmentally responsible methods, and produced in facilities that meet strict social criteria for worker welfare. For brands targeting health conscious consumers in the UAE, GOTS certification provides the credibility that marketing claims alone cannot achieve. Our organic cotton bags carry full traceability from farm to finished product, giving your brand a transparent story to share with customers who care about origins.
The Global Recycled Standard verifies that recycled content claims are accurate and that production facilities meet environmental and social standards. GRS certified cotton string bags are manufactured from post consumer and post industrial cotton waste that has been shredded, respun, and rewoven into new fabric. This circular approach diverts textile waste from landfills and reduces the water and energy consumption associated with virgin cotton cultivation. Businesses running corporate social responsibility programmes find that GRS certification resonates strongly with stakeholders and sustainability auditors who want verifiable data behind green claims.
This independent testing system verifies that textiles have been tested for harmful substances and are safe for human contact. An OEKO TEX label assures customers that the cotton bag they carry against their body and use to transport food items contains no allergenic dyes, no heavy metals, no formaldehyde residues, and no prohibited azo colourants. For cotton bags that will directly contact fresh produce, this certification is especially meaningful. Our entire range of cotton string bags meets OEKO TEX Standard 100 Class 1 requirements, the strictest category designed for products that come into contact with the skin of babies and small children.

One of the greatest advantages of cotton string bags over other reusable bag types is how effortlessly they maintain their quality through regular washing. Machine washing on a gentle cold cycle with mild detergent keeps your bags hygienic without weakening the cotton fibres. We recommend placing mesh bags inside a pillowcase or laundry net bag before washing to prevent the handles from tangling around the agitator or other garments. Air drying is always preferable to tumble drying because natural cotton shrinks slightly when exposed to high heat, and hanging the bag allows the mesh to regain its original stretch and shape naturally.
With proper care, a well constructed cotton string bag will last three to five years of regular weekly use. The cotton fibres actually become softer and more pliable after the first few washes, which means the bag improves with age rather than deteriorating. If your bags are used primarily for carrying produce, a monthly soak in a solution of water and white vinegar helps eliminate any lingering odours from food contact. For branded bags, our water based inks are formulated to withstand at least 200 wash cycles without fading, cracking, or peeling, ensuring your logo remains visible throughout the entire lifespan of every bag you distribute to customers and employees across the UAE.
