Custom Stand Up Pouches

Make your brand stand tall with our Custom Stand Up Pouches. This format is a retail favorite, designed with a stable bottom gusset that allows it to stand perfectly on any shelf, ensuring maximum visibility. The wide front and back panels are a perfect canvas for your vibrant, high-definition graphics, creating a “mini-billboard” for your product. Built from high-barrier Mylar, these pouches lock in freshness, flavor, and aroma, protecting your snacks, coffee, or mixes from moisture, air, and light.

Why are stand-up bags so popular?

From a brand and retail perspective, the popularity of stand-up pouches is driven by their unmatched marketing power and logistical efficiency. Unlike traditional flat packs or boxes, their stable bottom gusset allows them to stand upright on a shelf, creating a prominent “mini-billboard” that captures customer attention. This provides a large, smooth canvas for vibrant, high-impact graphics that build brand identity. Beyond their visual appeal, these pouches are incredibly lightweight and are typically stored flat before filling, which drastically reduces freight costs and warehousing space compared to rigid containers like glass jars or cans.

For consumers, the appeal is rooted in modern convenience and enhanced functionality. The most significant advantage is the resealable zipper, which allows for easy portioning and securely locks in the product’s freshness, flavor, and aroma long after the first opening. This feature reduces food waste and eliminates the need for clips or secondary containers. Furthermore, stand-up pouches are durable, shatterproof, and lightweight, making them an easy-to-store, pantry-friendly, and portable solution that perfectly suits on-the-go lifestyles.

For Your Brand: Unmatched Shelf-Presence & Smarter Logistics Our stand-up pouches are designed to turn the retail shelf into your brand’s personal billboard. Unlike flat packs that get lost, our pouches stand tall, offering a stable, vertical canvas that demands attention. This structure provides a 360-degree, high-definition printing surface for a powerful visual impact that dramatically boosts brand recognition. Beyond the visuals, they revolutionize your bottom line. Because they weigh a fraction of glass or metal, they slash shipping costs and carbon emissions. They also ship and store flat, saving critical warehouse space, making them a high-performance, cost-effective alternative to rigid packaging. 

For Your Customer: The Ultimate in Convenience The advantages extend directly into your customer’s home. A stand-up pouch is inherently stable, eliminating pantry tip-overs. We integrate modern conveniences to fit any product, from resealable zippers for snacks and powders to ergonomic spout designs for liquids, offering a far superior pouring and handling experience than clumsy bottles or cans. It’s a user-first design that also functions perfectly as an economical, eco-friendly refill, reducing waste and cost.

Have questions about creating your perfect custom stand-up bag? We’ve compiled the answers to our most common queries right here, from artwork and materials to sizing and features.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom stand-up bags?

Our MOQ typically starts at 500 pcs for custom printed orders. However, this can vary based on the bag size, material, and print complexity. We also offer digital printing for smaller, more flexible runs.

Are your stand-up pouches food-grade and BPA-free?

Yes, absolutely. All our pouches intended for food contact are manufactured using 100% food-grade, BPA-free, and FDA-approved materials. We prioritize your product’s safety and quality.

What is the lead time for a custom order?

Our standard lead time is typically 2-4 weeks from the moment your final artwork is approved. This can be affected by order volume and specific customizations.

 

How do I know what size stand-up bag to order for my product?

The right size depends on your product’s volume (e.g., 100g of coffee vs. 100g of granola). You can provide us with your product, and we can recommend the best-fitting stock size, or we can create a fully custom size. We highly recommend ordering samples to test with your product first.

What artwork file format do you require for printing?

For the highest quality print, we require vectorized artwork in an .ai (Adobe Illustrator) or layered .pdf format. Please ensure all text is outlined and all images are embedded at a minimum of 300 dpi. Our team can provide a dieline template to help your designer.

Can I add features like resealable zippers or hang holes?

Yes! Our stand-up pouches are fully customizable. You can add a variety of features, including press-to-close zippers, child-resistant zippers, easy-open tear notches, clear windows to showcase your product, and hang holes for retail display.
