From luxury laminated paper, eco friendly paper, jute and juco the RHS Chelsea Flower Show has evolved their souvenir carrier bag over the past decade with the help of ESC Packaging. 

Step back in time and look at how the Chelsea Flower Show's charity souvenir bags have changed over the years!

2004 - 2007

Luxury laminated 216gsm sustainable sourced matte laminated paper carrier bags were the order of the day. Printed full colour CMYK using soya based ink, water based glue ESC created beautiful keep sake carrier bags for the Chelsea Flower Show.

2008 - 2010

Eco-friendly compostable full colour branded carrier bags with cotton rope handles. Made using post consumer waste recycled materials and water based glue, soya based inks, these bags were stunning AND eco-friendly to.

2011 - 2014
Introducing Fabric bags

The 2011 project saw a move to jute as a more eco-friendly reusable bag was sought. ESC Packaging were delighted to produce the 2011 jute carrier bag followed by the 2012 juco bag with luxury leatherette handle. The 2013 bag took a different direction with it being pantone dyed to their lilac shade and a simpler design on the face.
