How to choose the right size for your stand-up pouch

Understanding product density
The key factor in selecting the right pouch size is density. The same weight of flour, coffee beans, and granulated sugar will take up different amounts of space. To accurately measure your product's volume:
1. Measure volume, not just weight
To determine the volume of your product using a kitchen measuring cup, follow these steps:
Fill a measuring cup
Place a measuring cup on a scale. Fill it with 100 grams of your product and read how many milliliters it contains.
Multiply the volume
Now multiply the amount until you reach your desired volume.
Example: You want to package 500 grams. If 100 grams of your product is 30 ml, then 500 grams of your product is 150 ml.
Choose the right size!
Now that you know the required volume, you can choose a stand-up pouch with the right size!
2. Use sample pouches
Testing different pouch sizes with your product is the most effective way to ensure the right fit.

Once you have determined the volume, you need to consider the dimensions. With all pouches you can find in our webshop we mention the maximum filling volume in mL. For the coffee pouches we mention the volume in grams.
