No matter the economic climate, cat lovers still spend money on their cats.   Mucho dinero!  These folks consider their cats to be members of their family.  For some, cats are their only family.  And, just like with any family member, cat lovers enjoy providing their feline friends treats.  Because of this, cat treat packaging is very important to pet food producers, distributors and retailers and the end-consumer.

Stand up pouches are probably the ideal type of cat treat packaging, whether sold in dry or moist form.  Because they are perishable, cat treats degrade and decompose over time.  Cat treat packaging must, therefore, protect against spoilage. Stand up pouches, also known as stand bags or stand up bags, lock in product freshness while they lock out light, vapor, odor and moisture.  Made from multiple layers of scientifically designed film barriers  laminated together, these bags are also puncture resistant, a great feature if the family Calico likes to explore the kitchen cupboards.

In the store, stand up bag cat treat packaging stands head and shoulders above other packaging forms because it stands up on the shelf.  Also available with hang holes, stand up bags can actually be displayed by hanging in the store.

With their wide front and back panels, stand up pouches offer ample surface area upon which the marketing department can custom print text and graphics in up to 10 colors; in the alternative, labels can be applied.  Cat owners love that their pets have quirky and amusing personalities and stand bags are ideal for creating attention-grabbing and entertaining cat treat packaging.

Zip seal type closures keep cat treats (especially the moist kind) fresher longer, reducing waste and costs.   And, with available tear notches, this cat treat packaging is a snap to open.

Stand up pouch cat treat packaging is a 'green' alternative to boxes and cans.  It's recyclable.   Furthermore, whether plain, stock or custom, stand up pouches take up very little space in a landfill.

Convenient, durable, attractive and environmentally sound, stand up bag cat treat packaging is ideal for the producer, the retailer and the customer alike.  And, of course, for the cat.    Interested in more information about cat treat packaging using stand up pouches?
