Is Stand Up Food Packaging Right for My Business?

There is no one-word answer to this question. If you are an arms-dealer in Eastern Europe or northern Mexico, using a stand up pouch to ship ammunition is not right for your business. The police will sniff you out before you can blink. But if you own a food business, stand up bags may be the best packaging choice for your product. The sheer variety, customizability, and the cost factor make stand up pouches an irresistible choice for food businesses. You can use them for dry food packaging, dog food packaging, coffee packaging, granola packaging, snack packaging, liquid packaging, and health food packaging. Even non-food businesses are using stand up pouches for detergent packaging, soap packaging, and garden product packaging. These pouches are the right packaging medium for a lot of businesses. You will have to ask yourself if yours is one of them. Here we are creating a checklist which will help you decide:

Do I want packaging that is safe?

Sand up pouches are made from multiple layers of food grade material. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has declared these pouches safe for food and beverage packaging. If you want extra safety, you can add additional features such as ultraviolet protection, and metallic layers. StandUpPouches.net  makes extra thick pouches for heavier products, so you can be assured that you product is safe in heavy-duty stand up pouches.

Do I want a custom design?

Custom designed stand up pouches demonstrate an impressive art work that makes your product stand out from the crowd. A custom design attracts consumers and increases sales. Stand up pouches offer a large surface area for art work. This surface area offers ample real estate for both artwork and product information. So you do not end up choosing between beauty and usability. With stand up pouches you can have your cake and eat it too.

Do I want to save money?

StandUpPouches.net has the minimum package run in the industry. You can order as less as 5,000 pouches if that is all you need. Stand up pouches save you money in two more ways. First, they are cheaper to produce. A stand up pouch costs between 15 – 20 cents. This is cheaper than a folding carton (35 cents), a plastic jar (40 – 50 cents), and a tin can (60 cents). Secondly, the inventory costs for stand up pouches are minimal.

So depending on these points, it is up to you to decide if standup pouches are right for you.
