Have questions about creating the perfect custom-shaped pouch for your brand? We’re here to help. We have compiled the answers to our most common queries—covering everything from unique die-lines and artwork to materials and sizing—to make the process as simple as possible.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom-shaped pouches?
Our MOQ typically starts at 500 pcs for custom printed orders. However, this can vary based on the pouch size, material, and the complexity of the print and the shape itself. We also offer digital printing for smaller, more flexible runs.
Is there an extra tooling fee for creating a custom shape?
Yes. Creating a unique shape that is not a standard square or rectangle requires a custom-made die-cutting tool. This is typically a one-time setup fee, and this tool is then kept and reused for all your future orders of the exact same shape and size.
Are your shaped 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-shaped order?
Our standard lead time is typically 2-4 weeks from the moment your final artwork and dieline are approved. This can be affected by order volume and the complexity of the shape.
How do I determine the right size for my custom-shaped pouch?
The right size depends on your product’s specific volume (e.g., 100g of granola vs. 100g of liquid). Since this is a custom shape, our team will work with you to create a size that not only fits your product perfectly but also provides the best visual impact. We highly recommend testing samples with your product first.
Can I add features like zippers or hang holes to a shaped pouch?
Yes! Our shaped 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, and custom-placed hang holes that integrate with your unique design.
