Pouch bags are an ideal form of packaging for a wide variety of products and the ability to put custom high quality printing on the entire surface of the bag makes them excellent venues for automatic marketing. However, one of the other main benefits of using this type of packaging comes from the barrier films that go into the bag. Barrier films are engineered to protect products in several ways including:
- Protection from odors: Using more than one layer of film makes it possible to keep odors away from dry food, coffee, and other products during storage and while the product is sold on the shelf.
- Moisture: Vapor and moisture can be a big problem for bread, granolas, and any product that is subject to mold. Barrier films truly keep mold spores away from the product as opposed to cheap plastic packaging that only uses one thin layer.
- Sunlight: Sunlight can affect some products and can also heat up packaging to the point of ruining chocolate and other heat sensitive items. We can make creative food packaging that takes this into account.
- Lower cost: Barrier film bags require fewer materials and this translates to a reduction in costs for a number of reasons.
