- What closure options do Kraft stand-up pouches have?Kraft stand-up pouches can come with two main closure options:
- Heat Sealing: This closure method uses a heat sealer to create a tamper-evident and airtight seal at the top of the pouch. Ideal for long-term storage or products sensitive to oxygen exposure.
- Ziplock Closure: This resealable closure allows for easy opening and closing of the pouch. Perfect for products that will be consumed multiple times or require easy access.
- How do I know what thickness to choose for my Kraft Stand-Up Pouches?
Choosing the right thickness for your Kraft stand-up pouches depends on the weight and type of product you'll be using them for. Here's a breakdown to help you decide:
- Lighter Products (100-120 microns): Ideal for lightweight products like coffee beans, snacks, tea leaves, or powders. This thickness offers a good balance between flexibility and protection.
- Medium-Weight Products (120-150 microns): Suitable for products with some weight or require more structure, like granola bars, dried fruits, or small candies. This thickness provides additional support and better puncture resistance.
- Heavier Products (150-180 microns): Best for heavier or bulkier items like pet food, bath salts, or larger candy bags. This thickness offers maximum durability and can withstand significant weight and potential bumps during handling.
Here are some additional factors to consider:
- Shelf Life: If your product requires extended shelf life due to oxygen or moisture sensitivity, opting for a thicker pouch (150-180 microns) might be beneficial.
- Stackability: For products that will be stacked on shelves, a thicker pouch (150-180 microns) can provide added stability and prevent crushing.
- Desired Feel: If you prefer a more rigid pouch for a premium look, consider a thicker option (150-180 microns).
- Lower Shipping Costs: Thinner pouches (100-120 microns) can sometimes be a more cost-effective option for lighter products due to their reduced weight and potential for smaller shipping boxes. However, always prioritize product protection over minimal cost savings.

- Do your stand-up pouches come with hang holes?
Yes, we can offer hang holes for our stand-up pouch sizes to enhance shelf display options! We have two hanging options:
- Plane Hole: W 32 * H 9 mm- ideal for standard hang hooks and pegs.
- Circle Hole: 8 mm diameter - suitable for single-prong display hooks.
- Can I customize the printing on all surfaces of the pouch?Absolutely! We offer full customization for printing on the front, back, and even the bottom panel. This is a great space for non-critical information like barcodes. However, it's important to note that the bottom section has a fold line in the center that may cause slight distortion to text or barcodes placed directly on it. We recommend keeping important information away from the fold for optimal readability.
- Are Kraft stand-up pouches good for food products?Yes! Our custom kraft stand-up pouches are made from FDA certified food-safe materials for extended shelf life and protection against moisture, oxygen, and light. Our pouches are designed to be puncture-resistant, keeping your products protected in transit and on display.
