Packaging Your Food Safely with Stand Up Pouches

A report in a British newspaper throws light on a research carried out in the U.K. in which researchers discovered a common chemical found in cardboard boxes - diisopropyl-naphthalene – that contaminates food. They also discovered problems with other packaging mediums from plastic bottles to aluminum cans. This is a problem scenario.

The problems highlighted in the research fall into two broad categories:

(a) Poisoning from leeching
(b) Poisoning from chemicals used in the materials

In this post we will discuss how StandUpPouches.net’s custom printed stand up pouches score on these two criteria of safety, and if they are capable of safety packaging food products.

(a) Poisoning from leeching

We use water-based non-leeching inks for our flexible pouches. These inks are safe to use to package food products.

(b) Poisoning from chemicals used in the materials

We use only FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved food-grade materials for our pouches. These materials have undergone rigorous testing. They have been declared safe to package food products.

The above explanations underline our claim that our pouches make a safe and secure flexible food packaging.
