Stand-up pouches are one of the most popular types of food packaging. With their attractive and robust shape, they present products at their best. In this article, we take a closer look at the characteristics of this packaging to help you to choose your stand-up pouches.
What is a stand-up pouch and what is it used for?
A stand-up pouch is a type of packaging that consists of a flexible film and stands up when filled, thus providing stability. It is often used for packaging food, pet food, cosmetics and other products.
The stand-up pouch offers good visibility of the contents and is easy to handle.
The advantages of stand-up pouches are:
- Food-safe, for versatile use
- Attractive design
- Tear notches for easy opening after sealing
- Odorless and tasteless, thanks to high-quality materials
- Rounded corners of the bags, which also prevents buckling
- Sealing possible, for additional aroma protection
Difference between doypacks and flat-bottom bags
At first glance, the two packs are very similar: both stand upright, are available in a variety of materials and offer a good way to present the product.
On closer inspection, however, there is a noticeable difference in the base of the bag. As the name suggests, the flat bottom bag has a flat bottom and the doypack has a "rounded" bottom.
You may also notice that the products themselves are designed differently. The doypacks are sealed at the sides, while the flat-bottom bags have several edges. These are clearly visible after opening the bag.
Both formats have good dimensional stability and the choice between the two often depends on the specific requirements of the product. Do not hesitate to contact us to find out which bag is best suited to your product.
