Flat Bottom Pouches
Flat bottom pouches are a type of flexible packaging that provide stability due to their flat rectangular base and gusseted sides, allowing for more volume. They are a popular choice for packaging food items, such as coffee, tea, snacks, and powdered mixes, as they stand upright when filled. Made from multiple layers of laminated film, flat bottom pouches offer high barrier properties, protecting the contents from moisture and oxygen.
Additionally, these pouches offer a spacious branding area, making them a useful marketing tool. They are lightweight, eco-friendly, and can be customized with features such as zippers, spouts, tear notches, and one-way degassing valve, offering convenience to both manufacturers and consumers.
At Hezcy, our flat bottom pouches are compliant with FDA regulations for food use and are manufactured in fully BRC and ISO-accredited facilities, ensuring the highest quality and safety for food contact.
