Stand Up Pouches for Product Packaging

A Food Pouch and a Stand Up Pouch

When it comes to packaging, food isn't the simplest item to deal with. Your packaging choice must take into account protecting it, preserving it, the convenience/versatility of storing it. Then there's the small matter of distinguishing your brand in the marketplace. Oh, and food packaging should probably be made of food grade material.

There are, clearly, numerous options for packaging food, most of them suitable for whatever the product might be. However, not all food packaging is created equal. A stand up food pouch is a classic example of food packaging that stands above the rest.

A stand up food pouch is made in much the same fashion as most of our other pouch packaging: Multiple film layers (food grade, of course) are laminated together to create a barrier pouch that will protect contents from air, light, vapor, odor, moisture, pests (and pets!), depending on what the food product requires. A stand up food pouch will also extend the "best by" date for most foods by preserving freshness, flavor, aroma and nutrition, especially when the optional zip lock closure is included.

Because they stand up on the shelf, stand up pouches store conveniently They're flexible enough to fit almost anywhere there's space. Tear notches for easy, mess-free opening are available. And the zip lock closure, designed to extend shelf life, also provides the most convenient mechanism for repeated pouch opening and resealing.

 

 

Stand up food pouch packaging also offers some branding opportunities for your product line. Because they stand up on the shelf, they stand apart from other packages. Round and sombrero-style hang holes that provide grocers and other retailers a second display option can also be ordered.

The features that are perhaps most effective in attracting the attention of shoppers are the dual front/back panels on which you can affix your labels or other stickers, order custom printing to your exact specifications (in up to 10 colors), incorporate the use of clear film or combine any or all of these choices.

The stand up food pouch for your food products: Satisfying the most demanding packaging needs.
