Edamame.  What is it?  Simply green, edible soy beans that haven't reached maturity.  High in fiber, they're also a source of protein, omega-3 fatty acid fat and calcium, iron, zinc and B vitamins.  http://www.personal-nutrition-guide.com/edamame-nutrition.html.   Increasingly popular, edamame is sold primarily in three forms:  Shelled, in the shell and dry-roasted.  With this increased popularity, however, comes an increased need for edamame packaging that is protective, cost-effective and consumer friendly.  Stand up bag edamame packaging ideally meets that need.

Stand up pouches, also known as stand up bags, stand bags and printed Mylar® bags, are made from laminating together multiple layers of scientifically designed film barriers.  This results in a packaging material that is durable, stable and puncture resistant.  Stand bags keep odor, vapor, moisture and pests out while keeping freshness and flavor in.

Available with easy opening tear notches, stand up bags with zip lock style closures extend the shelf life of the product, much to the consumer's delight.  Gas release valves can be provided if desired.

Stand bag edamame packaging is a marketing department's dream.  Designed to stand up on the shelf (and stand out from the competition), stand bags have wide front and back panels.  These panels provide ample room for the manufacturer or distributor to affix product labels or custom print text and graphics in up to 10 colors on the bags.  The decorative opportunities are almost endless.

Stand up bags not only stand up on the shelf, they can be attractively displayed via hang holes as well.  Either way, this edamame packaging is sure to attract the eye of that busy shopper as he hurries down the store aisles before picking up the kids from day care and then rushing home to make dinner.

Stand up edamame packaging takes up very little room in landfills.  And probably even more important to the 'green' consumer, stand up pouches are recyclable.

Stand up bag edamame packaging.  Sturdy, stable, protective and attractive.   The ideal way to market a healthy snack, making the perfect packaging for a healthier bottom line.  Want to learn how to packaging edamame using stand up bags?
