- L
- Front widthThe horizontal span across the assembled front panel.
- W
- Gusset depthThe front-to-back depth when the side gussets are opened.
- H

Your values appear on the diagram and in your inquiry. The reference drawing stays at its original proportions.
Design for the finished product.
The two broad body panels contain matching handle cut-outs. Narrow folded strips create the side gussets, and the lower sections form the base.
Place the main design below the handle.
Use the broad faces for a clear logo or image, leaving enough uninterrupted space around the grip.
- Do not place text in the handle cut-out.
- Check both faces when the bag is filled.
Use the side folds for a simple continuation.
A background colour or repeating pattern can continue into the side gussets.
- Keep small text away from the central gusset crease.
- Check how the pattern looks open and folded.
Allow for overlapping glued areas.
The bottom folds overlap during assembly, and the side seam needs a clear attachment area.
- Mark concealed areas before artwork approval.
- Keep key logos above the bottom fold line.
Prepare artwork on the approved production dieline at final size. Confirm bleed, print sides and safe margins before printing.

- Keep the layers separate.
Place the dieline on its own reference layer. Keep it out of the printed artwork unless your production file instructions say otherwise.
- Check the reading direction.
Review logos and text in the finished orientation. Carry patterns across folds only after checking their alignment.
- Approve a physical reference.
Use the appropriate sample to check fit, opening and print position before confirming production.
