Yes, a stand up pouch offers an eco-friendly nut package. For modern environment gurus, the mantra is to “reduce, reuse, and recycle.” Stand up pouches are an environment friendly packaging medium for nuts because (a) they reduce the amount of resources that go into packaging, (b) they are reusable, and (c) they are recyclable.
(a) Reduce
Plastic is the chief ingredient used in stand up pouches. The amount of plastic that goes into making a stand up pouch is less than the amount needed to produce a plastic bottle, a heavy duty plastic jar, and many other plastic packaging mediums. Also, the energy required to produce and transport stand up bags is less than other packaging mediums.
(b) Reuse
Stand up pouches are resealable. This quality makes them reusable. Consumers can buy a large pouch and use it several times before leaving it out of their house for the trash collectors. This is not possible in the case of tin cans.
(c) Recycle
Stand up pouches are made from thermoplastic. This kind of plastic can be melted with heat and molded again into any shape. Therefore things made from thermoplastics are recyclable. As stand up pouches are made from thermoplastics, they are recyclable too.
