When it comes to protecting the environment, many consumers are concerned with the materials used in the packaging of their favorite products. Companies must find cost effective solutions to not only keep their product safe and fresh but also meet this consumer demand for environmentally friendly package design.

Fortunately, stand up pouches are one of the most cost effective solutions for companies to protect their goods while also meeting green packaging goals.  Stand up bags are recyclable and landfill friendly. When finished with the contents, there is no special requirement for disposal. In fact, the general public may discard the bags in the trash or place in the recycle bin. When recycled, the bags’ laminated barrier film may be ground back up and used as filler in other products such as park benches, car bumpers and plastic lumber.

Food and consumer product manufacturers often use bottles, pails, jugs and boxes with plastic inside to package their products. These methods of packaging create a lot of waste that ends up in landfills. Reducing the amount of packaging helps the environment tremendously. Stand up bags reduce excess waste and plastic by 75 percent, which ultimately makes them fit within green guidelines for helping the environment.
