Material & Structure Options for Shaped Pouches
Choosing the right material ensures freshness, durability, and brand impact. Our shaped pouches are crafted from multi-layer laminated films, customized for your product—whether snacks, cosmetics, or liquids.
Explore a variety of high-performance materials and structural combinations tailored to meet your product's protection, presentation, and sustainability needs.
At Guoshengli Packaging, we understand that every product requires a unique packaging solution. That’s why we offer a wide range of material and structure options for stand up pouches, combining functionality, protection, and visual appeal.
PET + PE
This is the most common structure for general food packaging. PET provides excellent printability and durability, while PE ensures reliable sealing and moisture resistance — ideal for snacks, dry goods, and powders.
PET + VMPET/AL + PE
For products that need higher barrier protection, such as coffee, pet food, or premium snacks, we offer laminated structures with VMPET (vacuum metallized PET) or aluminum foil (AL). These materials block out light, oxygen, and moisture, preserving flavor and extending shelf life.
PET / AL / RCPP
This high-performance structure is specifically designed for retort pouches, capable of withstanding high-temperature sterilization (up to 121°C). PET offers mechanical strength and printability, aluminum foil provides a full barrier, and RCPP (Retort-grade Cast PP) ensures strong heat sealing under pressure.
OPP / CPP
OPP (Oriented Polypropylene) combined with CPP (Cast Polypropylene) is a widely used structure for packaging dry foods like chips, cookies, and bakery products. OPP provides excellent gloss and printability, while CPP adds heat sealability and durability.
NY + PE
When strength and puncture resistance are essential, such as in liquid packaging (soups, sauces, detergents), nylon (NY) layers offer enhanced durability and flexibility, preventing leaks and damage during transportation.
Eco-friendly Materials (100% Recyclable PE / PLA)
For brands focused on sustainability, we provide recyclable mono-material structures and biodegradable PLA (Polylactic Acid) options. These solutions help reduce environmental impact without compromising on quality or performance.
Thickness Range
We offer flexible film structures with thicknesses ranging from 30microns to 200 microns, depending on your product’s weight, filling method, and shelf life requirements. Thicker materials enhance strength and protection, while thinner films reduce cost and environmental load.

Zipper (Press-to-Close)
Secure zipper seals with press-to-close, keeping contents fresh and reusable effortlessly.
Rounded Corners
Smooth, curved edges enhance safety, prevent sharp cuts, and give a sleek, polished appearance.
Euro Hole / Hang Hole
Add a hang hole for display or storage, optimizing space and visibility.
Spout
Perfect for liquids or semi-liquids, spouts ensure clean pouring and easy use.
Degassing Valve
Degassing valve releases gas, maintains pressure, and extends product shelf life.
