PA/PE (puncture resistance and flexibility for heavier products). Final structure confirmed based on product type, filling weight, gusset width, shelf life and storage conditions.
Application Recommendations
Coffee: PET/VMPET/PE or PET/AL/PE with side gusset for larger bag format and aroma protection. Dry food and grains: PET/PE or PET/VMPET/PE with expandable gussets for bulk packaging. Powder products: PET/AL/PE or PET/VMPET/PE with moisture barrier and strong sealing. Pet food: PA/PE or PET/VMPET/PE with puncture resistance for kibble. Tea and dry herbs: PET/VMPET/PE or Kraft/VMPET/PE with aroma protection and natural appearance option.
Side Gusset Structure and Bag Options
Each batch undergoes side gusset forming check, sealing strength test, bottom stability verification, print registration inspection, barrier performance test, load-bearing check for larger bags and size tolerance measurement. Pre-shipment inspection with retained batch samples. ISO22000 certified production.
Quality Control Points
MOQ depends on bag size, gusset width, material structure, thickness, printing colors and order quantity (typically from 30,000 pcs). High-barrier or kraft structures cost more than basic film structures. Larger bags require stronger sealing and thicker material. For accurate quotation, please send product type, filling weight, bag size, gusset width, material preference, printing colors, quantity and artwork.

Material structure depends on product type (dry, oily, frozen, liquid, high-temperature), shelf life requirements and packaging machine type. Common options include PET/PE, PET/VMPET/PE, BOPP/CPP, NY/PE and kraft paper laminates. We can recommend suitable structures based on your product details.
What is the difference between roll film and premade pouch?
Roll film is printed laminated film supplied on rolls for automatic packing machines (VFFS/HFFS), where filling, forming and sealing happen on one machine. Premade pouches are pre-formed bags delivered ready for filling on separate equipment. The choice depends on your production line and product format.
