Yes, nearly all our window pouches feature a sturdy, convenient grip closure (ziplock). This allows consumers to reseal the bag easily after use. It’s not just handy—it keeps your product fresh and aromatic for much longer. The best protection, even after the first opening!

Choosing the right size is essential for a professional look. Because every product has a different volume (think of 250g of light tea versus 250g of heavy coffee beans), we recommend measuring by volume in milliliters. Not sure? Use our size chart or order a free sample pack. Test which window pouch makes your product shine best.

Stand-up pouches offer good protection from light, air and moisture, keeping products fresher for longer and preserving quality for a longer period of time. Stand-up pouches can be used to store different types of products, such as food, snacks, dried goods, cosmetics and more. However, it is important to check that the stand-up pouch is suitable for your specific product requirements, such as barrier properties, product shelf life and any special (storage) conditions. Choosing the right stand-up pouch and using it in the right way will allow products to be stored safely and effectively for long periods of time. Any questions?

The most common ways to fill and seal stand-up pouches are as follows:

Manual filling and sealing: for small quantities or prototypes, stand-up pouches can be filled manually with the desired product and then sealed using a sealing machine or manual sealer.
Semiautomatic filling and sealing machines: for larger production volumes, you can fill and seal your stand-up pouches using automated filling and sealing machines. These machines can accurately dose the product and help you fill and seal the stand-up pouches quickly and efficiently.
Fully automatic filling and sealing machine: are you looking for a machine that fills your stand-up pouches fully automatically? With

We have stand-up pouches available in all shapes and sizes. The contents are listed in millilitres because each product has its own volume. 1 kg of tea has a different volume than 1 kg of coffee. You can select the size you need on the product page.

To find your suitable stand-up pouch, you can consider the following points:

What do you like and fit well with your product and corporate identity?
Volume: determine what size you need for the quantity you want to pack of your product.
Properties: what does your product need to stay fresh? Think resealability, heat resistance and/or protection against oxygen and moisture.
Finishes: take a valve if you are packing coffee, choose a window if you want to see the product. Choose from many options to make the bag more beautiful: shape, matt or gloss, and so on.
Closure: choose a suitable closure option. Do you want a zipper or not? Or a front zipper? Or is your product liquid and do you need a spout?
Durability: how important do you think this is? Will you choose a stand-up pouch that is fully recyclable?

Stazakken met venster verhogen de verkoop omdat ze de onzekerheid bij de klant wegnemen. Jouw product is direct zichtbaar, wat de verkoopkracht enorm vergroot. Tegelijkertijd garandeert de hoogwaardige barrière-folie dat de kwaliteit en versheid behouden blijft.

Ja, bij PouchDirect personaliseer je jouw zakken volledig. Voeg jouw eigen logo, kleuren en merkstijl toe voor een unieke uitstraling. Dit kan al vanaf kleine oplages, waardoor ook kleinere bedrijven professioneel voor de dag komen.

Absoluut. Wij bieden flexibele bestelopties die aansluiten bij jouw specifieke behoefte. Of je nu een kleine testbatch nodig hebt of een doorlopende voorraad voor massaproductie: wij regelen het voor je.

Ja, vrijwel al onze stazakken met venster hebben een handige, stevige gripsluiting (ziplock). Hierdoor sluit de consument de zak na gebruik eenvoudig weer af. Dit is niet alleen handig, maar houdt jouw product ook veel langer vers en aromatisch. De beste bescherming, ook na de eerste keer openen!

Het kiezen van de juiste maat is essentieel voor een professionele uitstraling. Omdat elk product een ander volume heeft (denk aan 250 gram lichte thee versus 250 gram zware koffiebonen), adviseren wij om uit te gaan van het volume in milliliters. Twijfel je? Gebruik onze maattabel of bestel een gratis samplepakket. Test op je gemak welke stazak met venster jouw product het beste laat uitkomen.

Absoluut. Wij bedrukken kraftzakjes volledig naar jouw wens vanaf 5.000 stuks. Zoek je een neutrale variant in een standaardformaat? Die bestel je in kleinere aantallen direct uit onze ruime voorraad.

Vrijwel al onze zakjes zijn voedselveilig gecertificeerd. Je kiest uit diverse uitvoeringen zoals stazakken, Flat Bottom-zakken en blokbodemzakken. Deze beschermen producten zoals koffie, thee, noten en kruiden optimaal tegen invloeden van buitenaf.

Je kiest bij ons uit diverse uitvoeringen, waaronder de klassieke stazakken en de elegante blokbodemzakken. De zakken zijn verkrijgbaar in verschillende papierkleuren (zoals natuurlijk bruin of wit kraft) en met diverse venstervormen. Zo stem je de verpakking precies af op de visuele identiteit van jouw product.

Onze kraftzakjes zijn standaard voorzien van een handige gripsluiting (ziplock), waardoor ze na openen makkelijk hersluitbaar zijn. Voor een optimale bescherming en een professionele 'first-opening' ervaring raden we aan om de zak boven de gripsluiting te sealen met een hand- of tafel-sealer. Hierdoor blijft de inhoud gegarandeerd vers en ziet de klant direct dat de verpakking nog niet eerder geopend is. De inkepingen (tear notches) aan de zijkant zorgen ervoor dat jouw klant de zak daarna in één beweging openscheurt.

De juiste maat kiezen is cruciaal voor een strak schapbeeld. Omdat elk product een ander volume heeft (denk aan het verschil tussen 250 gram zware koffiebonen of 250 gram lichte thee), werken we met inhoudsmaten in milliliters. Een handige vuistregel: meet het volume van jouw product af in een maatbeker. Kom je uit op 500ml? Kies dan een zak met een vergelijkbare inhoud. Twijfel je nog steeds? Geen zorgen. Bestel een gratis samplepakket en test direct welk formaat jouw product het beste laat knallen!

Absoluut. Voor koffiebranders is dit de meest gekozen oplossing. De barrière houdt de kostbare oliën en aroma's in de zak. Tip: combineer de zak met een ontgassingsventiel. Zo kunnen de gassen van de koffie wel naar buiten, maar komt er geen lucht naar binnen.

Zeker weten! Wij transformeren onze aluminium pouches tot jouw belangrijkste marketingtool. Of je nu een subtiel logo wilt of een volledig full-color design; wij verzorgen de bedrukking al vanaf kleine aantallen. Zo knalt jouw merk direct van het schap.

Ons assortiment is breed: van kleine samplezakjes tot grote bulkverpakkingen. De meeste varianten zijn voorzien van een stevige gripsluiting (ziplock), zodat de consument de zak na opening weer eenvoudig en luchtdicht kan afsluiten.

Onze aluminium (look) stazakken bieden de hoogste bescherming in ons standaard assortiment. Voor 99% van de voedingsmiddelen en supplementen is de METPET-barrière de absolute topoplossing. Wil je het zeker weten? Vraag een gratis samplepakket aan en test het zelf, of laat je adviseren door een van onze verpakkingsexperts.

Absolutely. We print kraft pouches according to your exact design starting from 5,000 pieces. Looking for a neutral version in a standard size? Order those in smaller quantities directly from our large stock.

Almost all our pouches are food-safe certified. Choose from various models like stand-up pouches, flat bottom pouches, and block bottom bags. These provide optimal protection for coffee, tea, nuts, and herbs against external influences.

You can choose from various options, including classic stand up pouches and elegant block bottom bags. The pouches come in different paper colours, such as natural brown or white kraft, and with various window shapes. This lets you match the packaging precisely to your product’s visual identity.

Our kraft pouches come as standard with a handy zip closure, so they are easy to reseal after opening. For optimal protection and a professional first opening experience, we recommend that you heat seal the pouch above the zip closure with a hand sealer or table sealer. This keeps the contents guaranteed fresh and shows the customer right away that the packaging has not been opened before. The tear notches on the side let your customer open the pouch in one smooth pull.

Choosing the right size is crucial for a clean shelf look. Because every product has a different volume, think of 250 grams of dense coffee beans versus 250 grams of light tea, we work with volume sizes in millilitres. A handy rule of thumb: measure your product’s volume in a measuring jug. If you end up at 500 ml, choose a pouch with a similar volume. Still unsure? No worries. Order a free sample pack and test straight away which size makes your product pop!
