The name, Stand-Up Pouch, aptly describes the package format. It is, in fact, a pouch that will stand up, and first gained popularity as the drink pouch (with a straw) for children. You will often see Stand-Up Pouch abbreviated to the industry term—SUP.
The stand-up pouch provides consumers with market-friendly features like zipper reclosure, tear notches, the versatility of hang hole features, strong shelf presence and an attractive billboard for label and graphics. Stand-up pouches are sold into a wide variety of markets including pet food, coffee, tea, natural products and specialty foods. Products such as crackers, cookies, nuts, dried fruit, candy, chips and powders are often seen in a stand up pouch.
Constructed of high barrier foil and/or clear laminates, the PBi 400 Series stand-up pouches protect your product from oxygen and moisture. We recommend the PBi 400 Series Stand-Up Pouch for products such as coffee, nuts, flavored teas, and other products that need higher protection against oxygen and moisture.
Pouches are produced from a multi-layer laminate that includes metallized polyester. They are a medium barrier pouch that work great for specialty or niche markets. They are not intended for products that need high barrier protection (i.e. coffee).
We’ve combined all the features and benefits of the Stand-Up Pouch with the most reliable, easy to use, secure closure sliders on the market. Great for pet food, specialty foods and any other multiple-use products that require reclosure.
