Classic Blank Canvas Tote Bag — Wholesale Promotional Totes in Bulk, 15×16
The TB200 is the standard-bearer of wholesale promotional canvas tote bags — 12 oz heavy canvas, 15"×16", reinforced stress points at every handle attachment, and cotton web handles that hold up under a full grocery load. At twice the weight of a basic tote, it carries more, holds its shape longer, and makes a stronger impression as a branded giveaway or corporate gift.
Available in natural and black. No minimum order. Ideal for trade shows, corporate events, grocery and retail use, and any buyer who wants a tote that lasts. Ships in 1 business day from our California and Georgia warehouses.
Why 12 oz matters — and how it's different from a basic tote
Most lightweight tote bags are 6 oz — fine for giveaways, but they go limp under load and wear out quickly with daily use. The TB200's 12 oz canvas is twice the weight: it holds its structure when full, stands upright on its own, handles heavier loads without straining the seams, and accepts embroidery and screen printing with far less puckering. If you want a tote that feels substantial in the hand and gets used for years rather than months, the 12 oz is the right choice.
What You're Ordering
The Heavy Canvas Surface Prints Cleaner Than Lighter Bags
Want this bag printed with your logo or artwork?
The 12 oz canvas is a better print surface than 6 oz alternatives — more stable under the press, less prone to shifting, and the denser weave holds ink with more definition. Screen printing on heavy canvas produces sharper edges and more vibrant spot colors. Embroidery sits cleanly without the backing puckering that thinner canvas causes. The large 10"×12" imprint area handles everything from small logo placements to full-front artwork panels.

Heavy Canvas for Daily Use, Events, Trade Shows & More
The TB200 is the go-to wholesale canvas tote when durability and perceived quality matter. Its weight and structure make it the preferred choice for buyers who want a bag that gets used daily — not just once at an event.

Common Questions About Heavy Canvas Tote Bags
What does 12 oz canvas mean and why does it matter?
Canvas weight (measured in ounces per square yard) describes how dense and heavy the fabric is. 12 oz canvas is twice the weight of a standard 6 oz tote. That extra density means more structure — the bag holds its shape when full, the handles handle heavier loads without straining, and the surface accepts screen printing and embroidery with cleaner results. For daily-use bags, trade show bags, and anything intended to last years of heavy use, 12 oz is the right choice.
What is the difference between the TB200 and TB100?
Both are 15"×16" with the same 10"×12" imprint area, but the TB100 is 6 oz with self-fabric handles and the TB200 is 12 oz with cotton web handles. The TB100 is lighter, more economical, and ideal for high-volume giveaways. The TB200 is heavier, more structured, and better suited for corporate gifting, trade show bags, embroidery, and daily carry where quality and durability are priorities.
Can I screen print on the black TB200?
Yes — screen printing is available on both natural and black. For black bags, white or light-colored ink produces the best results. DTG printing is available on natural only — DTG ink does not produce accurate colors on dark canvas without a white base layer, which is why we limit DTG to natural.
Is the TB200 good for embroidery?
Yes — the 12 oz canvas is significantly better for embroidery than lighter bags. The dense weave provides a stable base that holds stitches cleanly without the backing puckering or the fabric shifting under the needle. For embroidery studios, the TB200 is the preferred canvas tote blank over 6 oz alternatives.
Does this bag hold its shape when empty?
Yes — the 12 oz canvas has enough body to stand somewhat upright when empty and holds its shape when full. This is one of the key practical differences from 6 oz totes, which go flat and limp under load. The structure is particularly noticeable when the bag is used for grocery shopping or carrying books.
What printing methods are available and what are the minimums?
Screen printing is available on natural and black, from 25 pieces, with Pantone color matching and a free digital proof. DTG printing is available on natural only, from 25 pieces, with a free digital proof. Both methods have a 10–14 business day turnaround after proof approval.
Is there a minimum order for blank bags?
No minimum on blank bags. Order any quantity — volume pricing applies automatically at checkout. Free shipping on orders over $200 to the continental US. Ships in 1 business day from our California and Georgia warehouses.
