More About This Product

Stand Up Pouches are a highly adaptable and eco-conscious packaging choice, offering excellent functionality while reducing material waste. Their lightweight structure minimizes shipping costs and storage space, making them an ideal alternative to bulky rigid packaging. Designed with resealable options, these pouches help maintain product freshness while enhancing consumer convenience. For sustainability-focused brands, we offer an innovative compostable variant featuring a Kraft paper exterior with a compostable backing. This eco-friendly option provides a balance of sustainability and performance, supporting vibrant multi-color printing while maintaining an effective barrier against moisture and oxygen. Available in multiple barrier levels (low, medium, high), we tailor each pouch to your product’s specific needs. If you’re looking for a sustainable packaging solution that aligns with your brand’s values while delivering practicality and shelf appeal, our Stand Up Pouches are the perfect fit. Additionally, we provide rollstock laminate formats for brands requiring flexible, high-quality sustainable packaging.

What is a stand up pouch?

A stand-up pouch is a prevalent form of packaging, commonly found in grocery stores, designed for both functionality and aesthetic appeal. These pouches are characterized by their ability to stand upright on shelves, enhancing product visibility and consumer convenience. They are sealed along both sides, and feature a unique bottom configuration with two seals that allow the pouch to expand into a pointed oval shape when filled. This bottom gusset can be crafted using various techniques such as a plow bottom, doyen style, or k-seal, each contributing to the stability and capacity of the pouch. Their robust construction helps protect contents from moisture, contaminants, and punctures, ensuring the product remains fresh and secure. They are often equipped with resealable zippers or tear notches for added consumer convenience, making them a practical solution for today’s retail environment.

Is compostable packaging good for the environment?

Our perspective on compostable packaging evolves with ongoing research and new findings. One thing remains clear: we can't continue to depend solely on paper and LDPE (plastic) for future packaging solutions. Innovation in materials is essential, which is why we currently offer compostable options. While our present offerings may not be "perfect," the absence of investment from companies like ours would hinder progress toward the ideal compostable material. There are challenges, such as incomplete composting infrastructure and the lack of a strong alternative to fossil-based PBAT, a common binder in many bags. However, without exploring these options and supporting R&D in material science, legislative changes and the development of new materials will stall. For this reason, we see compostable technologies as a crucial investment in the future.

Do your bags contain microplastics?

No, they don’t. Many “biodegradable” plastics are often oxo-degradable plastics. These are produced from conventional non-biodegradable plastics, enhanced with additives that simulate biodegradation to promote material fragmentation. These plastics disintegrate into tiny fragments that persist in the environment. Our bags are completely different — there is no polyethylene structure in the bags. Instead, when they break down, they dissolve into water, organic biomass, and C02

What are the certifications?

The bags are certified by all three industry certifiers; Vincotte, BPI and Dincerto, meeting American, European, International and Australian standards – including certifications for your domestic home compost. To gain these certifications, the product must break down within 90 days in commercial compost and 180 days in home compost conditions, including wormfarm compost. After degradation, they must leave no harmful residues behind. In fact, the only residue left behind is a soil enhancer which is returned to the earth as plant food.
