Material & Structure Options for Stand Up Pouches
Choosing the right material and structure is crucial for ensuring product freshness, durability, and brand impact. Our stand-up pouches are made from multi-layer laminated films, customized to meet specific product needs—whether for snacks, coffee, pet food, or liquids. Explore our high-barrier, retort, boilable, and eco-friendly options designed for maximum protection and sustainability.
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.
Stand Up Pouch Types
Pouch Types by Base Design
Doypack (Standard Stand-Up Pouch)
The Doyen style features a U-shaped gusset, perfect for lightweight products (<0.45kg). Its sealed bottom acts as “feet” for stability. Requires a custom die but allows shorter pouch height for the same volume. Ideal for snacks, powders, and small items.
K-Seal (Reinforced Base Support)
The K-Seal pouch features a distinctive “K”-shaped bottom seal, ideal for products weighing 1-5 lbs. Unlike Doyen styles, it requires no custom die and offers minimal bottom expansion, often needing slightly taller dimensions for equivalent volume.
Corner/Plough (Plow) Bottom Style
With its folded base, the Corner/Plough style delivers a refined look and solid stance. Great for premium products, it offers a distinctive edge that enhances brand presence on display.
