To know the amount of liquid a stand up pouch can carry, all you have to do is measure the length, breadth, and bottom gusset of a custom printed bag.

Fast forward to 1:24 in the video below. You will see an image of a colorful stand up bag. Notice “Width” written in bold red color near the bottom of the pouch. You can measure the width of a flexible pouch by placing a scale parallel to the direction “Width” is written.

Let the video play for a few seconds and you will notice a new stand up bag. On the right side of this pouch is a red line with “Length” written over it. Measuring the red line with a simple scale will give you the height.

Play for another ten seconds and you will see a simplified diagram of a flexible pouch. Turn your attention to the bottom gusset. You can measure the gusset by opening up the pouch and putting a scale along the widest point in the bag.

We hope that clears things up. If you have more questions about how pouch bags are measured, you can write to us. You can also visit our website to learn more about the measuring process of custom printed standup pouches.
