As the popularity of pouch bags has increased, so have the number of packaging companies that deal in them. Unfortunately, this has resulted in more bags of questionable quality as some companies have made reductions on thickness and materials to lower the cost of the bag. Having been in the business of flexible food packaging for some time, to us, this seems like a very short-sighted approach that is bound to cause problems for the products such bags are meant to protect. Instead of making the thinnest bag possible, last year, we decided to engineer a standard stock bag because keeping the product safe and sound during delivery, storage, and while it is on the supermarket shelf are far more important.

After testing various possibilities we came to the conclusion that the best stock bag to use is not a super thin bag but one that is 5 mm thick. We found that this thickness works best at keeping everything from vitamins to grains and dog treats safe during both delivery and storage. While it's tempting to say that a thicker bag also translates to a fresher product, to be honest, while a thick barrier is a factor, the freshness of a product is more dependent on the materials that are used. This is why we also customize the materials used in bags to suit the products that will be stored in them. Since our superior stock bags were engineered to protect a wide variety of products, can have zippers or heavy duty tear notches, and can help sell a product, we are sure that our clients will be coming back for more.
