Raised Shiny Paper Bags
Raised shiny paper bags use raised spot UV coating to create a stunning contrast between a soft matte base and high-gloss, three-dimensional design elements. The logo or artwork literally rises off the surface with a brilliant shine — an effect that is both visually dramatic and irresistibly tactile.
At Perklets Print, raised shiny bags are produced on 200–250 GSM art board with matt or soft-touch lamination. The spot UV is selectively applied to specific design areas using a custom UV screen, building up a thick, domed texture with an intense gloss finish. The contrast between the flat matte background and the shiny raised elements creates a premium look that far exceeds standard printed bags.
Ideal for boutique retail, beauty and cosmetic brands, fashion labels, and high-end corporate gifting. A bag that customers keep and reuse — because it's simply too beautiful to throw away.

FAQs: Raised Shiny Paper Bags
What is raised spot UV?
Raised spot UV applies a thick, domed layer of UV-cured gloss coating to specific areas of the design. Unlike flat spot UV, raised UV builds up a three-dimensional texture that you can feel — creating a tactile, premium effect.
What base finish works best with raised UV?
Matt or soft-touch lamination creates the strongest contrast with raised UV. The flat, non-reflective base makes the shiny raised elements stand out dramatically.
What design elements work best for raised UV?
Logos, brand marks, and key graphic elements work best. Avoid applying raised UV to very fine text or thin lines — minimum element size is 3mm for clean results.
What is the minimum order?
Minimum order is 50 pieces with a 7–10 working day lead time from artwork approval.
How durable is the raised UV finish?
Raised UV is very durable — the UV coating is hard-cured and resists scratching under normal handling. Avoid stacking heavy items directly on the raised elements.
