In the past few years, the packaging industry has seen the rise of standup pouches over traditional packaging options like cardboard cartons, glass jars, and plastic bottles. From products like sugar and coffee to tuna fish and pet food, stand up pouches can be found everywhere. The traditional methods of packaging have taken a backseat and more sophisticated and flexible food packaging methods have become the demand of the day.

After food products, it is the turn of beverage makers to adopt stand up pouch as their standard packaging technique. Beverage makers have been experimenting with different drink packaging methods for a long time now, and stand up pouches have become the ultimate choice for most of them. Aluminum cans and glass bottles are outdated now, and the market has adopted stand up pouches. But before you also adopt spouted pouches, go through the following checklist:

1. Is the spouted pouch good for your product? It is essential to understand that spouted pouches are manufactured from food-grade materials and cannot sustain highly acidic contents. So if your product is on the highly acidic side, a stronger substance might be required to manufacture your stand up pouch.
2. What should be the position of the spout? The position of the spout is the deciding factor behind how attractive your stand up pouch is going to look. It is really important for the pouch to look different and catchy in order to lure customers. The spout can either be located in the center or at the corner, but the graphics and the design of the pouch should be kept in mind before deciding the position of the spout.
3. What quantity of liquid should be there in each stand up pouch? Different weights work best with different types of spouted pouches and it is essential to determine beforehand the weight of each pouch. The suppliers are the best people to consult when it comes to deciding the right weight to work with the right type of pouch.
4. Do you want your pouch to have a translucent window? If you want to lure your consumers by showing them how your product looks like then a translucent window is the answer. The best quality of a stand up pouch is that it is customizable and can be incorporated with unique features like translucent windows.  This will help the consumers know what the product looks like and make a better decision.

Stand up pouches have become an instant hit with the consumers and the demand is still increasing. Get your product a spouted packaging and be sure of a boost in sales!
