flat bottom stand up pouches

A new invention, the stand-up pouch, revolutionises the candy industry, mainly because they are lightweight, durable, airtight, and reusable compared to other types of containers. Flat bottom stand up pouches are a variant of the standard stand up pockets.

The stand-up pouch is a part jar and part bag. A jar lid locks down, covering an opening in the top of the pot. You fill it, close it, and either stand up or hold it up. 

It's perfect for candies, nuts, and other small items, which makes it quite useful for commercial and residential use. The flat bottom stand up pouch works exceptionally well for products that need to be free-flowing, such as shampoos and lotions, as an alternative to a glass jar, and it also costs less.

What’s more, the stand up pouch also saves more energy in manufacture. An open glass jar requires more energy to heat, calm, and transport, which costs money.

The convenience of use: compared to glass jars:

The flat bottom stand up pouches is much more convenient to use as well, as opening and closing a stand-up pouch is faster than opening and pouring from a glass jar. The flat bottom stand up pouches is quicker to fill, and as you fill them, it automatically seal.

The stand up pouch is safer. Because a stand up pouch is close to level, the contents don't spill out. A glass jar is more prone to spills because the contents have to be removed from the jar before being sealed.

The stand up pouch weighs less, so it's easier to ship if you use it for commercial purposes. Because the stand up pouch is flat, you can pack it more tightly, saving space and saving upon shipping costs.

The stand up pouches are also durable and tend to last longer. 

Advantages of flat bottom stand up pouches: compared to straight bottom bags:

The main advantage of flat bottom stand up pouches over straight-bottom bags is that they allow you to put things in the pouch without changing the shape of the pouch. You can fill them freely without worrying that you'll fill the pouch unevenly or that things will go bouncing around inside.

In contrast, a straight-bottom bag has to worry about being filled evenly. The bag has to be wide enough that there's no space at the bottom and nothing pushing up on the sides. If you fill a straight-bottom bag too full, it will start to bulge, and anything you put in it will bump around.

Standing pouches are curved at the opening, so they don't have to worry about being filled evenly. But their shape also makes them harder to seal. To seal a straight-bottom bag, you first squeeze the sides shut and then fold down the top. For a flat-bottom pouch, you have to fold down the top first, then fold the sides down, and that is all.

This may not seem important, and sealing straight-bottom bags is indeed easier. But sealing flat-bottom pouches is more secure because the seal is all the way around. This makes them even more convenient to be used during shipping. 

Stand up pouches tend to have two or three sides for labelling or display purposes. While the Flat Bottom Pouch has five. So you get ample space for putting information and designs of your choice. 

When it comes to how much volume or bulk of material each can carry, flat bottom pouches tend to win as well.

Furthermore, they are also more cost-effective when compared to bare stand up bags, even though the latter uses less material and has less cylinder base. 

The benefits of flat bottom stand up pouches when compared to other types of containers are endless, for both commercial and residential needs. Take advantage of these durable and contemporarily styled packaging for your business.
