Custom Stand Up Pouches | Flexible Packaging for Food, Beverage & Cannabis
Stand up pouches have become one of the fastest-growing flexible packaging formats globally — combining the structural self-standing capability that makes them effective retail shelf displays with the material versatility that accommodates an extraordinary range of products from liquid beverages to dry granola to cannabis concentrates. The bottom gusset that enables the pouch to stand upright has transformed flexible packaging from a lay-flat supplement to primary retail shelf packaging.
Stand Up Pouch Configurations
- Standard Stand Up Pouches: Bottom gusset with press-to-close or slide zipper reseal — the universal flexible retail format for dry goods, snacks, and specialty foods
- Spout Pouches: Stand up pouches with integrated fitment spouts for liquid products — juice, baby food, condiments, and adult beverages
- Flat Bottom Pouches: Four-sided gusset base creating a more stable standing footprint — premium retail presentation for coffee, pet food, and specialty products
- Retort Pouches: High-barrier stand up pouches rated for retort sterilization — replacing cans in ready-to-eat meal applications
- Child-Resistant Stand Up Pouches: CR-zipper pouches for cannabis edibles and regulated product applications
Material Construction
Stand up pouches use multilayer film constructions laminated to achieve the combination of barrier, strength, and printability required. Common structures include PET/foil/PE (maximum barrier for oxygen and moisture-sensitive products), PET/PE (standard food applications), kraft/PE (natural aesthetic food applications), and clear/clear PET/PE (product-visible transparent pouches).
Stand Up Pouches vs. Traditional Rigid Packaging
Stand up pouches have captured market share from rigid packaging — cans, jars, and boxes — across multiple food categories because they offer compelling advantages: lighter weight (reducing shipping costs), less material per unit volume (reducing material costs), superior shelf presence through full-surface printing (all six panels of a pouch are printable, versus the label-only surface of a jar), and consumer convenience through integrated resealable closures. The flat-bottom pouch in particular has captured premium coffee, pet food, and specialty food categories from rigid containers with its stable standing footprint and premium brand presentation.
Retort Stand Up Pouches: The Can Alternative
Retort pouches withstand the high-temperature, high-pressure sterilization process used for shelf-stable food production — the same thermal process applied to canned goods, but in a flexible pouch format. Retort pouches offer significant advantages over cans: faster heat penetration during sterilization (shorter process times, better nutrient retention), consumer-preferred format (tear-open versus can opener), lighter weight, and superior full-surface printability. Ready-to-eat meals, pet food, fish, and vegetable products are leading the transition from cans to retort pouches.

Stand Up Pouches in Atlanta — FAQs
What is the difference between a stand up pouch and a flat bottom pouch?
A standard stand up pouch has a simple bottom gusset that allows it to stand when filled but collapses when empty. A flat bottom pouch (also called a box pouch) has a four-sided gusset base that creates a stable flat bottom — the pouch stands securely when both full and empty, provides a larger base footprint for retail stability, and presents a more premium, structured appearance on shelf. Flat bottom pouches command premium retail positioning for specialty coffee, premium pet food, and high-end snack brands.
What barrier film do I need for my product?
Product barrier requirements depend on sensitivity to oxygen, moisture, and light. For maximum barrier (coffee, nuts, dried meat): PET/foil/PE multilayer — effectively eliminates oxygen, moisture, and light. For standard food applications: PET/PE — adequate moisture barrier for most dry goods. For natural aesthetics: kraft/PE — natural appearance with standard food barrier. For cannabis: mylar (metalized PET)/PE — maximum barrier with light blocking.
Can stand up pouches have a spout?
Yes. Spout pouches integrate a plastic fitment — a threaded spout with screw cap — into the pouch seam, allowing liquid contents to be dispensed without opening the pouch's top seal. Spout pouches are standard for baby food, juice, condiments, sports drinks, and adult beverage (wine in a pouch). The spout provides measured dispensing and allows partial emptying with reclosure.
What is the minimum order for custom stand up pouches?
Our minimum order is 100 units for custom-printed stand up pouches. Digital printing makes short-run custom pouches economical for small-batch food producers and new product launches without the plate costs of rotogravure printing.
