Port Authority BG410 - Essential Zip Tote - Dark Charcoal
Selected Color: Dark Charcoal9 colors
Choose Size
Description
The Port Authority BG410 is an essential zip tote in 600D polyester with a zippered top closure, a front slash pocket, and 23-inch handles. The zippered top separates the BG410 from open-top canvas totes by securing contents during commutes and events, which makes it the go-to blank for corporate gift programs, trade show giveaways, wellness kits, and employee onboarding bags where items need to stay inside the bag during transport. The 600D polyester body resists water and abrasion better than cotton canvas, and the 5.5-inch gusseted bottom lets the tote stand upright when loaded.
Screen printing is the primary decoration method. The 600D polyester face holds plastisol ink on the flat front panel for one and two-color logos. DTF transfers bond to the polyester surface for photographic and full-color artwork without screen setup costs. Embroidery works on the front panel with proper stabilizer backing for corporate logos and monograms. Heat transfer vinyl for individual names on small-run orders.

Decoration Method Compatibility
How this blank performs across popular decoration methods.
| Method | Compatible | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Screen Print (Plastisol) | ✓ | Primary method. 600D polyester front panel holds plastisol for one and two-color logos. |
| DTF Transfer | ✓ | Bonds to the polyester surface for full-color photographic artwork without screen setup. |
| Embroidery | ✓ | Front panel with proper stabilizer backing. Corporate logos and monograms on the 600D surface. |
| Heat Transfer Vinyl | ✓ | Individual names on small-run orders. Standard HTV at recommended settings. |
| Sublimation | ✗ | 600D polyester is a woven fabric, not a knit. Sublimation on woven denier polyester produces inconsistent results and is not standard practice. |

Fabric Blend by Color Group
Not all colorways share the same fabric composition. Check the blend before ordering for decoration jobs where substrate matters.

|---|---|---|
| All solid colors (Heather Gray, Chili Red, True Royal, Stone, Turquoise, Pink Azalea, Black, Navy, Dark Charcoal) | 600D polyester | Polyester surface for screen print, DTF, and embroidery. Light colors print without underbase. Dark colors need white underbase for light-color plastisol. |
