How to Make Plastic Sachet Bags or Pouches?

Flexible food packaging is not something that can be made at home. It takes a large factory with heavy and expensive machines to process raw materials to create pouch bags. So if you want to create pouch bags at home; we’re sorry, you can’t do that (at least not without the right equipment).

How do factories make standup bags? Well actually, companies jealously guard their secret pouch making recipes. It is very hard to know what exactly goes into a manufacturing plant. It is, however, possible to get general details.

Sachet bags are made from petroleum. Machines convert petroleum into a thin sheet of plastic through a series of chemical reactions and through the effect of heat. The thin sheet of plastic is then combined with aluminum foil and other materials to make retort bags - sachet bags, stand up pouch bags, clear bags, and others. At StandupPouches.net, we use the right materials depending upon your needs; so pouches for flour would be a lot different than packets of beef jerky.
