The reported MOQ is 1,000 pieces for polyester and 2,000 pieces for canvas. These figures provide a starting point for planning; reconfirm them for the exact size, lining, decoration, packaging and order configuration.
Compare the specification, not just the fabric name
“Canvas” and “polyester” are broad material descriptions. Ask for fiber composition, fabric weight, surface finish and color for each nominated outer. Then compare the physical swatches or samples in the intended color and decoration. The right choice depends on the product brief, the appearance you want and the quantity you can order.
Canvas: weigh the tactile look against the higher reported MOQ
Canvas may suit a project looking for a more substantial woven appearance or a particular print surface, but the fabric name does not define weight, fiber content or hand feel. For one reported custom design, the outer is specified at 160 g/m² and the reported canvas MOQ is 2,000 pieces. That example should not be assumed to describe every canvas option. Request a swatch and confirm the chosen weight and composition in writing.
Decoration also needs a sample review. A single-color screen print is one reported option for a custom bag; confirm the artwork size, ink color, placement and appearance on the selected fabric before approving production.
Polyester: check the exact fabric and decoration route
The reported polyester MOQ is 1,000 pieces. Polyester covers many fabric constructions and weights, so ask the supplier to identify the specific fabric and available colors rather than treating “polyester” as a complete specification. Confirm how the proposed logo method looks on the sample and whether the requested color, lining and pack format fit the quoted quantity.
MOQ is only one part of the decision. Compare the quantities needed for each color or artwork version, not only the total order, and ask whether setup or packaging requirements change the minimum.
Specify lining and closure separately
The outer fabric does not tell you what lines the bag or how it closes. A reported example uses matte transparent TPU lining, 0.3 mm thick, with one white snap and no zipper. Treat this as a particular configuration, not a universal feature of canvas or polyester bags. Confirm the lining material and thickness, seams, opening dimensions, snap position and any approved construction on the sample.
Neither a fabric category nor a TPU lining alone proves leakproof performance. If liquid containment is part of the product requirement, agree the test conditions and acceptance criteria for the complete bag, including seams and closure. Keep any marketing claim within the evidence available for that specific construction.
Compare samples using the same checklist
Review both options under the same brief: finished measurements and tolerances, outer composition and weight, lining, closure, decoration, usable space, appearance and care guidance. Record sample versions and changes. The reported QC record names Mike as reviewer and May 6, 2026 as inspection date; no method or result is specified by that record. For a new order, state the checks you require and retain the observations and approval decision.
Plan the order and packing
Reported packing is 500 pieces per carton. Confirm whether this applies to your selected product and packaging, then request carton dimensions, weights and shipping marks. Reported monthly production capacity is 200,000 pieces; this is a capacity figure, not an individual order lead time. Ask for a project-specific schedule after the specification, sample and quantity are agreed.
The reported sample terms are $30, creditable against a bulk order, with a 3–5 day sample period. Confirm the sample scope, timing start point, dispatch and credit application before proceeding.

Frequently asked questions
What is the reported MOQ difference?
The reported polyester MOQ is 1,000 pieces and canvas MOQ is 2,000 pieces. Confirm both for the chosen style, print and packaging.
Which fabric makes a waterproof bag?
The fabric name alone does not establish finished-bag containment. Specify lining and construction, then agree a product-specific check if containment matters.
Which material should I choose?
Compare actual samples and written details for appearance, material, decoration, quantity and intended use. There is no universal choice independent of your brief.
