Who uses compostable pouches
Compostable pouches are used for grocery and grain packaging, snacks and dry goods, retail and takeaway counters, and home and commercial kitchens. The pouch has a food-grade, grease-resistant surface, and a sturdy seal that holds its shape when filled.
They replace plastic pouches without losing strength or shelf appeal, and come in stand-up or flat formats with a matte or kraft-look finish.
Sizes and thickness
| Specification | Range |
|---|---|
| Pouch size | 10×15 cm to 25×35 cm |
| Thickness | 80 – 120 microns |
Pouch sizes run from 10×15 cm to 25×35 cm. Choose by the fill weight and volume of your product, and leave headspace for the seal. Stand-up pouches show well on a shelf, and flat pouches suit counters and takeaway.
How to choose the right thickness
Pouches are made in 80 to 120 microns. The lower end suits light snacks and small portions. The higher end suits grains, pulses and heavier dry goods, where the pouch has to stand up and resist rubbing at the corners. Match the film to the fill weight, and test with your real product and your sealing equipment.
Disposal and storage
Used pouches can go to composting with food waste where an industrial composting facility is available. Our specification states that the pouch returns to soil within 240 days in industrial composting. Store unused pouches in a cool, dry place; shelf life is 12 months from the date of manufacture.
