Technological advances in plastic packaging materials have made it possible convey more food and other consumer goods to market than ever before. Packaging has become safer, less expensive to produce, more convenient to use and more versatile when it comes to marketing the product it contains. While there are many options to choose from, there is perhaps no better choice among plastic packaging materials than those which make stand up pouches possible.

Many stand up pouches are made from the finest plastic packaging materials available. The manufacturing process produces a barrier bag package that protects contents from vapor, odor, moisture, pests, light and/or air, depending on the properties of the product. Each pouch is strong and puncture-resistant but flexible enough to store conveniently almost anywhere in the garage, kitchen, closet, RV or even the trunk of the car. Smaller stand up pouches slide easily in a purse of backpack, providing a convenient way to take juices, beverages, snacks or lotions on the go.

The plastic packaging materials used to make stand up pouches are stable enough to enable them to stand up on the shelf, a benefit to both you and your customers. Any product packaged in a stand up pouch will stand out from others in the store. Available round and sombrero-style hang holes also enhance your marketing efforts by affording grocers and other retailers another way to display your products.

Stand up pouches have wide front and back panels which also help you market your brand. Each panel can accommodate company labels or other stickers, custom printing (in as much as 10 colors), clear film for construction of the pouch barriers or any combination of these choices. This versatility enables you to design the most creative package possible, one more likely to attract the attention of undecided shoppers who, according to studies, make up almost half of all shoppers at any given time.

Plastic packaging materials have come a long way. As a result, so too have packaging bags, making the stand up performance, outstanding convenience and stand out value of stand up pouches possible.
