Can You Print Several Coffee Bag Designs in One Order?
Packluma prints several designs of the same bag size in one digital order from 500 bags per design, and the price follows the combined quantity of all designs.
Pricing
How the price works across designs
Say you order four single-origin coffees in the same 12 oz bag, 500 bags each. That is 2,000 bags, so all four designs are priced in the 1,000–4,999 band: $1.15–$1.25 per bag.
One design of 500 bags would cost $1.60–$2.00 per bag. The same 500 bags, ordered as part of a four-design order, cost $1.15–$1.25.
Each design still needs at least 500 bags. Packluma does not take 300 bags of one coffee and 700 of another.
| Order | Bags per design | Combined bags | Price per bag, 12 oz |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 design | 500 | 500 | $1.60–$2.00 |
| 4 single origins | 500 each | 2,000 | $1.15–$1.25 |
| 4 single origins | 1,000 each | 4,000 | $1.15–$1.25 |
| 5 designs | 1,000 each | 5,000 | $0.55–$0.60 |
Ranges include shipping to the US, Canada, EU and Australia and cover a 12 oz flat bottom bag with valve and zipper. See the pricing page and the custom coffee bag cost guide.
Sizes
What does not combine: bag sizes
Different sizes do not combine. A 250 g bag and a 1 kg bag are separate sizes, so each size is quoted on its own quantity.
If you sell 250 g bags for retail and 1 kg bags for cafes, expect two quotes. Each size needs at least 500 bags per design.
Printed samples follow the same logic: they cost about $60–$100 per bag size, plus courier, and one sample batch holds one material.

Rotogravure
Rotogravure counts every design separately
Rotogravure printing does not combine designs. Each design gets its own engraved plates, and each design has its own 10,000-bag minimum.
Plates are made per colour per side, so four designs on rotogravure need four plate sets and at least 40,000 bags on the first order.
Digital and rotogravure printing cost about the same at roughly 5,000–10,000 bags per design. Below that, digital is usually cheaper, and several designs of 1,000 or 3,000 bags each are a digital job.
Examples
Four ways roasters set up a multi-design order
| Situation | What fits |
|---|---|
| Four single origins, same bag | Order 500 bags of each in one digital order. You pay the 2,000-bag price on every design and see which coffee sells before you reorder more. |
| One house blend and three seasonal coffees | If the blend sells 8,000 bags and the seasonals 500 each, a digital order is the better fit, because the blend is still under the rotogravure minimum. |
| A blend that passes 10,000 bags | Move that one design to rotogravure and keep the small coffees on digital. Ask for them as two quotes, because the printing methods are priced differently. |
| Two bag sizes | Quote each size separately. Picking the same bag size for most of your coffees keeps the order together and the price lower. |
Trade-offs
When fewer designs is the better order
More designs means a smaller quantity per design for the same budget. One design at 1,000 bags costs $1.15–$1.25 per bag. Two designs at 500 bags each also land in that band, but you hold two kinds of stock.
If a coffee sells fewer than 500 bags before the artwork changes, fewer designs may suit you better. Ask for a quote with one design and with several, and compare the price per bag.
Digital orders ship in 7–10 business days after artwork approval; the factory confirms the date in writing for each order. Not sure how to split your range? Read how to choose coffee packaging or send your list and we will tell you.
