Packaging - Pouches
Product Pouches
Product pouches are flexible packaging solutions that are widely used to package a variety of products, such as food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and personal care items. They come in different shapes and sizes, and are made from a range of materials, including plastic, paper, and foil. Here are some common types of product pouches:
Stand-up Pouches
Stand-up pouches are popular for their ability to stand upright on shelves, which makes them ideal for retail display. They are usually made of laminated plastic films and have a bottom gusset that allows them to expand when filled with product. Stand-up pouches can also have a variety of features, such as resealable zippers and tear notches.
Flat Pouches
Flat pouches are made from a single layer of material and are typically used for products that do not require a stand-up feature. They are commonly used for items like sample packs, spices, and snack foods. Flat pouches can also be customized with a variety of closures, including resealable zippers and heat seals.
Retort Pouches
Retort pouches are designed to withstand high temperatures and pressure, which makes them ideal for packaging products that require sterilization, such as ready-to-eat meals and pet food. They are made of laminated plastic films and have a unique shape that allows them to be heated and cooled quickly and evenly.
Vacuum Pouches
Vacuum pouches are designed to remove air from the packaging to create a vacuum seal. This type of packaging is commonly used for meat, cheese, and other perishable products that need to be preserved. Vacuum pouches can be made from a variety of materials, including plastic and foil.
Spouted Pouches
Spouted pouches are designed with a built-in spout that allows for easy dispensing of liquids and semi-liquids, such as baby food, beverages, and sauces. They are usually made from laminated plastic films and can be customized with a variety of features, including resealable zippers and tear notches.
These are just a few examples of the types of product pouches available. The choice of pouch will depend on the specific requirements of the product, such as the need for stand-up or vacuum packaging, resistance to high temperatures or sterilization, and the desired appearance and branding.
