Spouted stand up pouches continue to grow in popularity and I guarantee you they will find a permanent place in the hand sanitizer business. The only problem, it's not a quick fix. The demand for packaging options for hand sanitizer has affected global supplies and suppliers from gallon bottles to 50ml and 60ml bottles, pumps and even stock stand up pouches.
Spouted stand up pouches can be made to hold extremely aggressive materials, like the ingredients for hand sanitizer along with soap, detergent, and other chemicals. The industry has made convenience features a big part of this newest wave of spouted pouches, from handles and spray triggers to spigot and pour spouts.
The film structure must be strong and sturdy enough to not only contain the hand sanitizer but be made from film laminations that can counter the aggressive nature of the alcohol in the sanitizer.
As a short term fix, rarely will there be stock spouted pouches with film that was made to hold such a level of alcohol. However, in production, this won't be a problem. The point, if you are looking ahead and planning to be in the hand sanitizer business long term, consider the spouted stand up pouch. In 6-8 weeks you can have a printed spouted stand up pouch like the examples shown.

What Happens On May 1st?
On May 1st many US states are planning to open for business. What concerns me and anyone else in the hand sanitizer business is this...if you think demand is bad now (no one is working on site) wait until people go back to work and numbers spike! Plus, May 1st to May 5th is a Chinese holiday...where orders will back up, production will stop, and further demand on an already taxed Supply Chain will really push the limits. Get your order run ASAP--Here's How
Get In Line--Any Line--But Get In Line
Look, if you need alcohol compliant pumps or gallon containers or 50ml bottles or anything else pertaining to the hand sanitizer business, Place An Order! Companies are hoping that some friend of a friend is going to come through for them and they will learn the hard way. 2 weeks ago the lead time for alcohol compliant 38-400 pumps was 60+ days. Now, 2 weeks later it is past 90 days and climbing. If you plan to be in this business and forecast that you'll need supplies at some point...get your orders placed and place a deposit to get in the production line. Nothing is going to happen until you put Cash Down. Sorry to be so blunt, but hypothetical situations are over.
