Spouted stand up pouches can be used for liquid packaging, drink packaging, oil packing and virtually anything that needs to be poured out. Spouted pouches are the norm in Europe, Asia, and practically everywhere outside the North America. In the United States, these bags are slowly gaining recognition. Manufacturers are realizing it is not always feasible to use bulky and expensive plastic jars, heavy duty boxes and metal tins when spouted pouches are offering a cheaper alternative. Big players in the U.S. are aware of the rising popularity of stand up pouches and they are also considering switching over to them. However, cost is not the only factor that is motivating American manufacturers.
There is a rising concern regarding the deteriorating health of our planet. Stand up packaging offers a greener alternative as it reduces the amount of stuff landing into a landfill. These pouches are also excellent for brand making. Their large surface area is ideal for displaying your catchy brand slogan along with product information.
To conclude, although spouts and spouted pouches are still new in the U.S., they are fast making a mark. Since they are easier to use, consumers prefer liquids that are packaged in spouted pouches.
