Configure stand-up pouches by material

Design unique stand-up pouches

Zip fastener

Zipper closure

Our stand-up pouches are equipped with a resealable zipper that is easy to open and closes securely – ideal for freshness, convenience and repeated opening and closing during use.

Surfaces

Finishes

Our stand-up pouches are available in matt, gloss, soft-touch or paper-touch finishes, giving your packaging a premium look and a pleasant feel.

Rounded corners

Rounded corners

Stand-up pouches can be manufactured with pointed or rounded corners to ensure better handling and a modern look.

Recycling & PPWR

Designed for recycling

Our PP and PE mono-material stand-up pouches are designed for recycling: the film structure consists predominantly of a single polymer type (PP or PE), which supports sorting and recycling in the respective plastics recycling stream. Whether a pouch is actually recycled also depends on the local collection, sorting and recycling infrastructure.

Metallic-Effects

Metallic-Effects

With metallised films, we can give your stand-up pouches eye-catching metallic effects on request – ideal for exclusive designs and maximum attention.

Viewing Window

Viewing Window

Highly transparent viewing windows with gloss film make the contents of your stand-up pouches clearly visible – without any milky effect and with strong product presentation.

Special Shapes

Special Shapes

Thanks to modern die-cutting technology, we also manufacture stand-up pouches in custom special shapes – for distinctive packaging with strong brand impact.

Cut-Outs

Cut-Outs

Our stand-up pouches can be equipped with tear tabs, Euro holes or other cut-outs – for optimum functionality and attractive presentation at the POS.

INTERESTING FACTS

Guide to stand up pouches

Materials for flexible packaging

AlOx - aluminium oxide

The abbreviation AlOx stands for aluminium oxide and describes an ultra-thin, high-barrier inorganic coating that is usually applied to PET and BOPP films using a vacuum process. AlOx barriers are applied to the carrier film with a thickness in the nanometre range and are transparent.
Read more

Aluminium

Aluminium (ALU) is used in packaging film as a thin functional layer when particularly high levels of protection are required. Aluminium barriers provide the ultimate protection against oxygen, water vapour and light. The most common application is as a middle layer in PET/ALU/PE composite materials; which protects the sensitive aluminium and at the same time enables the best processing properties.
Read more

Barrier films

A barrier film is a barrier layer integrated into the packaging that protects food, cosmetic products or industrial goods from external influences such as oxygen, water vapour, UV radiation or even mineral oils.
Read more

Film thickness

The film thickness, also known as film thickness, is measured in micrometres (µm) and, depending on the application, is a decisive factor for film stability, product protection and printing and finishing options. Films are used in various areas such as logistics, packaging production and construction. Depending on the application, films have special properties such as:
Read more

Monomaterial

In the context of flexible packaging, a monomaterial refers to a material that is primarily made from one type of plastic – typically PE or PP-based. As a common rule of thumb for design for recycling, a structure is considered ‘mono’ if at least 90% of its total weight consists of the target polymer. The remaining portion may consist of printing inks, adhesives or thin functional layers such as barrier films – provided these do not interfere with the recycling process.
Read more

EVOH

The abbreviation EVOH stands for ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer. In flexible packaging, EVOH is used as a thin, organic barrier layer to protect products primarily from oxygen (and thus oxidation and aroma loss). In packaging films, EVOH is usually transparent and is therefore suitable for clear high-barrier packaging.
Read more

Metallisation

Metallisation refers to aluminium-metallised barriers that are applied to a carrier film (e.g. BOPP or PET) in nanometre-thin layers using vacuum coating (PVD). This process enables very high oxygen, water vapour and light barriers to be achieved with minimal material usage.
Read more

PET - polyester

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a dimensionally stable, highly printable type of plastic that is primarily used as a printing and outer film in flexible packaging. Its excellent thermal stability in particular enables high mechanical loads and ensures dimensionally stable repeats over long print jobs.
Read more

PE - polyethylene

Like PP, polyethylene (PE) belongs to the polyolefin group and is one of the most popular packaging materials due to its properties. Polyethylene is considered tough, stable and easy to weld. It is therefore mainly used as an internal sealing medium for various flexible packaging such as bags, flow packs and sachets. In modern mono-material structures, PE in the form of MDO-PE is also used as a PET substitute for printing films. So-called coex films are often used for flexible packaging such as stand-up pouches – in this process, EVOH barriers, for example, are already incorporated (extruded) into the PE film during film production.
