Why

Why pouches?

For food supplements, pouches are better suited than plastic tubs – especially since weight, transport, packaging material and your brand’s appearance all come into their own in a stand-up pouch. You can even use single-use sachets that your customers can easily take with them after training.

Different designs and special editions

Packaging should connect the shop and the internet.
In store and online. Put your strategy and online marketing campaigns into practice quickly by varying the designs of your branded packaging. The Pouch Factory helps you bring limited-time, local or seasonal campaigns to market fast.

Ultimate protection

The key to packaging food supplements and nutrients is ensuring quality and shelf life. Pouches form a ‘barrier’ that protects the product from odours and vapours. Thanks to the special EVOH inner coating, they also provide a good seal and optimal shelf life. This way, supplements retain their effectiveness as well as possible – a significant advantage.

The best choice for the environment and nature

Compared to other types of packaging such as plastic tubs, pouches are the best choice, as they are made from sustainable materials such as kraft paper from organic raw materials or 100% recyclable mono-plastics. It is currently the lightest packaging there is. And in terms of quantity, a box holds more, saving a lot of space and CO₂ on the shelf and in logistics.

Mobile and flexible

Easy to carry and always at hand – athletes want a product that fits easily into their sports bag or backpack. Because pouches are a lightweight alternative to traditional packaging such as plastic tubs, athletes can take their supplements anywhere more easily. After all, convenience and quality matter a lot to consumers.

Frequently Asked Questions

UV protection and moisture are important for the quality of your supplements. Do you think sustainability is as important as we do? Then we recommend using recyclable pouches made of kraft paper with protected plastic inner layer or a pouch made of recyclable mono plastics, possibly including a metallized mono plastic inner layer for long-term preservation of your supplements.

Most of the packaging at the Pouch Factory offer the ability to add options such as a Eurohole, resealable zipper or see-through window. Except for compostable pouches, some of the above options are not possible due to the sorting and recycling process.

In the packaging industry, contrary to what you might think, lead times of 10 weeks are not unusual. The Pouch Factory offers the best lead times for all of our orders. Our lead time for custom pouch packaging production is 3 to 4 weeks. Rush deliveries are also a possibility, please contact us for that.

Yes! Compostable and biodegradable materials have become very popular, and are among the options for nutritional supplements. For example, kraft paper pouches with a bio-plastic inner layer.

At the Pouch Factory, you can order from as little as 1,000 pieces per design. If you have more than 4 different packaging designs, it is even possible to order from 500 pieces per design. For orders with a circulation of 500 pieces you have to use the same material construction. Of course, the pouches are always printed on the highest quality technology and at a guaranteed low price.

The pouches come open at the top so you can fill them automatically or manually. To seal the pouches, you need a device that can seal automatically or manually at 160°C/180°C.
