Drip coffee has become a must-have for cafés, hotels, and direct-to-consumer brands, offering instant brewing quality and exceptional convenience. By adding your logo and brand story to your drip coffee filters, you can transform a cup of coffee into a marketing touchpoint. Tonchant offers an end-to-end solution for custom-printed drip coffee filters—from artwork and materials to printing and fast delivery—making your brand image as outstanding as your coffee.

Why print your logo on drip filter bags?
Printed drip bags not only identify your brand but also:

Strengthen identification of points of use (office kitchens, hotel rooms, event giveaways).

Create quality unboxing moments for your subscribers.

When designs are Instagram-worthy, turn every creative moment into social media content.

Communicates quality and provenance, especially when paired with tasting notes or an origin story.

Logo placement and packaging options
There are several practical ways to apply branding to your drip filter bag products:

Outer Bag Printing: Full-color digital or flexographic printing is applied to the barrier bag to protect the drip bag from moisture and oxygen. This is the most visible branding surface and can support rich graphics and regulatory text.

Title Card or Hang Tag: A printed card stapled or affixed to the pouch adds a tactile, upscale feel and extra space for copying the story.

Direct printing on filter paper: For brands seeking minimalist packaging, food-safe inks can be used to print subtle logos or batch numbers directly onto filter paper. This requires careful ink selection and adherence to food contact regulations.

Retail Boxes and Sleeves: Branded boxes containing multiple drip bags enhance retail shelf presence and protect artwork during shipping.

Materials and sustainable choices
Tonchant can help you select a substrate that balances performance and the environment. Common choices include:

Recyclable single film bag, easy to recycle by traditional means.

Compostable kraft paper bags lined with PLA, perfect for brands prioritizing industrial compostability.

The drip bags themselves utilize unbleached filter paper to maintain their natural appearance and complete biodegradability.
We also offer water-based and vegetable-based inks to minimize Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and simplify recycling/composting.

Printing technology and minimum requirements

Digital printing is ideal for short runs, variable data (batch codes, unique graphics), and rapid prototyping. Tonchant’s digital printing capabilities allow for low minimum order quantities—as low as 500 packs for private label drip bags.

Flexographic printing is recommended for high-volume printing to provide consistent color and efficient unit costs.

As sales grow, a hybrid approach will combine digital short-run printing on rollouts with flexographic printing on existing SKUs.

Quality Control and Food Safety
Each printed drip bag undergoes rigorous inspections: color proofing, adhesion testing, barrier verification, and food contact safety screening. Tonchant adheres to international food safety standards and provides compliance documentation to ensure your printed label meets marketing and legal requirements.

Design support and prototyping
If you don’t have an in-house designer, Tonchant’s creative team will produce mockups and pre-press files, optimizing the artwork for your chosen printing method and substrate. Samples and prototype pouches typically take 7 to 14 days to produce, giving you the opportunity to sample and photograph the final product before committing to production.

Delivery time and logistics
Typical lead times depend on the size of the print run and the printing method. Small digital print runs can ship within two to three weeks of artwork approval. Larger flexographic print orders typically take four to six weeks. Tonchant can also arrange order fulfillment, dropshipping, and custom packaging quantities for subscription or retail projects.
