Get your products noticed with customizable stand-up pouches.

According to the Paper and Packaging Board, 7 out of 10 consumers believe product packaging influences their buying decisions. Make that number count for your business using custom stand-up pouches for your packaging.

Stand-up pouches can easily protect your products while making them look attractive and professional. With user-friendly features like tear notches, zippers, hang holes, and a bottom gusset, stand-up pouches can give your product a practical, eye-catching, and functional look.

Perfect for keeping snacks, pet food, and powdered drinks fresh, these stand-up pouches can also hold non-food products like beauty care, medicine and supplements. Maximize shelf space using these attractive packaging options with custom designs that bring your brand to life.

Let your products stand tall on display.

Stand-up pouches have bottom gussets that expand when filled, allowing products to stand securely on the shelves. This ensures the pouches rest on a solid base and will not topple.

These puncture and tear-resistant pouches come in a wide range of sizes and capacities:

Note: Measurements are in width x height x bottom gusset width. Capacity is an estimation only.

In addition to the bottom gussets, stand-up pouches also come with the following features to make displaying, opening, and storing a lot easier:

  • Zippers keep products fresh by sealing off the package after use. It also makes storing leftover items without any need for jars or other containers.
  • Tear-notches make opening the pouches easier. No need to use a pair of scissors or other tools.
  • Heat seals make the pouches leak-proof. This makes packaging liquid products a lot more convenient.
  • Hang holes allow you to display your products on a hook if you're short on shelf space. Choose between a round or euro (sombrero) hang hole.

 

Extend the shelf life of your product, not its stay on the shelf.

Stand-up pouches also help extend the life of your products. Barrier films prevent moisture and oxygen from entering the pouches and in doing so, help prolong the life of both food and non-food products.

Barrier films offer different levels of protection. The oxygen transfer rate (OTR) indicates how much oxygen can pass through the packaging. Lower OTRs mean that less oxygen passes through the material.

Below are the materials we use for custom stand up pouches:

Customizable pouches made to perfectly fit your products and display your brand.

Product packaging communicates what your brand stands for and what it can do for your customers. Design stand-up pouches that stand out on the shelves using a creative combination of unique artworks, white ink, custom colors, and an elegant finish:

  • 1. Create artwork that represents your brand.
    Are you into a minimalist design? Or do you like to add a pop of color to your packaging? Regardless of your design preference, your artwork should stay on brand so that customers can easily remember it. Use colors and typography that best reflect your brand personality.
  • 2. Make certain areas of your design pop out with white ink.
    White ink can make your design look more vibrant. It’s useful when you want specific areas of your artwork to appear white. Without it, the design will have the same color as the film underneath it. White ink is available on clear and metallized Film.
  • 3. Choose the coating for your pouches.
    Matte coating has an elegant finish and a muted appearance, best suited for brands that want to look classy and polished. Gloss coating has a shiny appearance that makes the color look more vibrant. Bright colors combined with a shiny finish are perfect for brands that want to appear bold and fun.
  • 4. Add helpful product information.
    Add help product information to help customers decide which product is best. Nutritional information, directions on how to use, ingredients, and best by dates are handy when customers are confronted with similar products.

 

Get minimalist stand-up pouches with maximized label designs.

You can diversify your stand-up pouch designs by combining plain pouches with a premium label. We offer unique label designs, shapes, and finishes to showcase your brand and attach them to simple stand-up pouches, leaving a unique customer impression.

  • 1. Create unique label shapes.
    Choose the shape that best suits your design. Options include square or rectangular labels with rounded corners, classic circle or oval labels and unique, custom shapes such as hearts and starbursts.
  • 2. Choose your label materials.
    Pick the perfect material for your labels. Paper labels offer a classic option, while our multicolored BOPP options are moisture-resistant for durability. Vinyl labels are perfect for rough handling, while the kraft material offers a traditional and eco-friendly feel. You can also opt for a laid texture, which adds an upscale, tactile finish to your packaging.
  • 3. Finish your label with custom lamination.
    Enhance your labels with the right finish. Keep them uncoated for a natural look, gloss-coated for vibrant colors, matte-coated for an elegant touch, or soft-touch for a velvety, premium feel.
  • 4. Maximize the use of minimalist stand-up pouches.
    Choose the stock stand-up pouches to go along with your labels. You can opt for glossy white pouches or glossy clear with silver backing that showcases your products. We also offer kraft pouches and stylish matte black options.
  • 5. Get your stand-up pouches with pre-applied labels.
    The custom labels are printed and applied on durable stock stand-up pouches, saving you the time of attaching the labels yourself. Once you receive your order, you can immediately use these pouches as part of your packaging line-up.

Q:
Can you send me samples of various sizes, please? I own two weight loss medispas, and we are looking to repackage products in large quantities and we have a variety of sizes needed, depending on what fits the products and shelves best.
Asked 2 years ago by Cara W.
A:

Unfortunately we do not have samples to give customers at the moment. If you check in the Configure and Price section, there are 13 sizes to choose from. This includes the width and heigh as well as the gusset. The measurement of the gusset indicates how wide the package can expand so you will have an idea if the product you have will fit.  

Q:
how do you seal the pouch if it doesn't have a zipper
Asked 2 years ago by Amy F.
A:

There is an option for a zipper. On the Configure and Price area, you can select the option for Reclosable Zippers as well as a Tear Notch for easy opening.

Q:
Are the measurements referenced to the bottom of the seal or for the enter packaging? i.e. for the XXL, would an item 13.25 inches in length zip in the pouch?
Asked 2 years ago by Matthew W.
A:

The measurement is to the edge of the pouch so you would actually need to measure the items to fit below the tear mark which is 1" below the top edge of the pouch. Then there is another 0.75" below the tear for the reclosable zipper (if selected). These measurements for the tear and zipper are standard for all the pouch sizes. An item 13.25" long will not fit.
