What to Look for in Stand-up Pouches
A stand-up pouch sits on a shelf like a small box, so the base, the seal and the film are the points to check.
- Capacity. Pouches are sized by what they hold. Fill a real pouch with your product and measure it, because volume and weight differ between products.
- Barrier. Coffee, snacks and powders need protection from air, light or moisture. Tell us what the product needs and we confirm what is possible.
- Closure. A zip lets the customer reseal it. A tear notch helps to open it. Decide how the pouch is used after opening.
- Window. A clear window shows the product, and a fully printed pouch hides it. Choose how much to show.
- Hang hole. A hole lets the pouch hang on a peg, and a plain top suits shelves.
Where Stand-up Pouches Are Used
- Coffee and tea brands selling beans, grounds and leaves.
- Snack, nut and granola brands selling by weight.
- Pet food and treat sellers with resealable packs.
- Spice, powder and supplement brands that need a resealable pack.
Artwork and Printing Tips for Stand-up Pouches
- A stand-up pouch has a front and a back panel, and a base that folds. Put the logo on the upper front, where it is seen on a shelf.
- Keep text and logo away from the seals at the sides and the top, and from the zip.
- Plan the base of the pouch, since it folds out and a design that goes down to the bottom may wrap around.
- A window affects the layout, so place logo and text around it.
- Tell us your colors as Pantone or CMYK values, ask for a proof, and ask about matte or glossy finishes if you want one.
Planning Your Order
Fill a test pouch with your real product and weigh it. Decide the closure, the window and the barrier you need, and check how you will fill the pouch, by hand or by machine. Empty pouches store flat.
Test a sample with your product. You can start with the Standard Sample Kit, which is $50 with shipping included, or pick another type from the Samples page. Your quote gives the pricing and minimums.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I order custom stand-up pouches?
Send your size, quantity, delivery location and artwork with a quote request. We prepare pricing based on the size, material, printing, finishing and quantity, and reply within 1 business day. After you approve the layout and artwork, the order goes into production.
How much do custom stand-up pouches cost?
Pricing depends on the size, quantity, material, printing and finishes. Request a quote and we will prepare pricing for your project.
How long does it take to get custom stand-up pouches?
Timing depends on the product, the size and the quantity, and it is confirmed with your quote. Production starts once your artwork is approved and payment is received. Delivery usually takes another 4–5 working days, depending on the carrier and your location, so a typical order arrives in about 2 weeks and larger orders take longer. See the turnaround guide.
What size stand-up pouch do I need?
Fill a pouch with your real product and measure the result. Product density changes the size you need, so do not use only the weight. Send the details and we confirm.
Can a stand-up pouch keep food fresh?
It depends on the film and the closure. Tell us the product and how long it must last, and we confirm what is possible.
Should I choose a window or a fully printed pouch?
A window shows the product and builds trust, which suits snacks, nuts and tea. A fully printed pouch gives more room for the brand and hides the product, which suits products that change color over time or react to light.
What is the difference between stand-up and flat pouches?
A stand-up pouch has a base and stands on a shelf, while a flat pouch lies flat and suits light items.
