Seal, stand up & stand out

Looking to package your goods in a distinctive way? Our custom stand-up pouches not only protect your product, but they look good doing it. Each lightweight, flexible and multilayered pouch locks freshness in while keeping air and moisture out. And with eye-catching, full-color printing available across a variety of shapes and sizes, you can create the ideal packaging for your products. Not sure about volume capacity? Have a look at our size chart to check which size will best suit your product. And if you still have doubts, take advantage of our custom pouch sample kit and make your next order with confidence.

Options to set your packaging apart

Selling good-looking candy? Choose a clear material and you'll get a window showing off inside. Offering tea or coffee? Meet industry standards with a metallized pouch. And if you’re looking for something else, try our white film. It’s our most popular material and can be filled with almost any product. We also have a variety of finishes and accessories to finalize your pouches. When selecting your pouches, remember that you won’t be able to fill them right to the top, because you’ll need to seal them. Keep this in mind when choosing your sizes.

Easy design experience

Ready to start designing your personalized pouches? You’ve got some options: Upload your own design, explore our customizable templates or let one of our pros create a one-of-a-kind design for you. Once you're happy, we'll take care of the rest, professionally printing and shipping them to you. From there, simply fill your pouch and heat-seal to close, and your product will be ready to impress. For details on filling and heat sealing your pouches, check out the video above or our FAQ section.

Ordered some bags for our small dog treat business
Mar 7, 2026 | DIY L. |

We recently ordered stand-up pouches for our business, and the experience exceeded expectations from start to finish. Packaging quality is critical for our product, so we evaluated several suppliers before moving forward. Ultimately, the pouches we received were exactly what we hoped for—and in several ways, even better. First, the material quality was outstanding. The pouches felt durable, thick, and well-constructed without being overly rigid. The seams were clean and uniform, the bottoms expanded properly to allow the bags to stand upright, and the zipper seals were strong and consistent across every unit we tested. In our case, reliable resealability is essential because customers often open and close the pouch multiple times. These zippers performed smoothly and created a tight seal each time, which gave us confidence in the shelf life and freshness of our product. The print quality and finish were also excellent. Colors appeared vibrant and true to the design files we submitted, with sharp text and no blurring or misalignment. The surface finish looked professional and premium, which is extremely important for a retail-facing product. We had no issues with color banding, smudging, or uneven coating—things that can unfortunately happen with lower-cost packaging providers. One thing that truly stood out was the quality control process. Before shipping, the company performed an additional quality check and proactively reached out to confirm everything met their standards. This step was unexpected but incredibly appreciated. It demonstrated that they take pride in their work and care about ensuring their customers receive packaging that reflects well on their brand. That extra attention to detail gave us a lot of confidence in working with them. Turnaround time was another strong point. The pouches were produced and delivered exactly within the timeframe we were given, with no surprises or delays. In packaging manufacturing, timing can often slip—especially with custom printed materials—so receiving everything on schedule made planning our production and inventory much easier. Overall, we were extremely impressed with the entire experience. The stand-up pouches are high-quality, visually sharp, and clearly manufactured with care. Between the excellent materials, reliable seals, professional printing, and thoughtful quality assurance process, this supplier delivered a product that we are proud to use for our brand. We would absolutely recommend them to other businesses looking for dependable, professional packaging, and we look forward to placing future orders with them.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, all of our custom stand-up pouches are leak-proof and suitable for direct food contact.

Yes, all of our custom stand-up pouches are microwave-safe and BPA-free. They can also be stored in any home freezer, though they are not suitable for commercial deep freezing (temperatures below -30° F).

When you're ordering stand-up pouches, it's important to keep in mind that the dimensions listed are for the pouch exterior, meaning the interior of the pouch is slightly smaller. The capacity is also affected by zipper closures, sealing sizes, tear notches and hanging holes. The size and shape of the product will also influence whether or not it fits, so it's always a good idea to check before you order. Note that the capacity listed is in fluid ounces which is for liquid volume – so keep that in mind when ordering. And if you’re still in doubt, you can always order a sample kit to help identify the best pouches for you.

Each stand-up pouch material has a unique look to enhance your products' appearance. Below are some recommendations on which pouch is popular with which products.

These are just suggestions – feel free to experiment! If your product isn’t listed here, you can always reach out to one of our pros during the design stage of your pouch creation.

Yes, our pouches protect against external moisture, oxygen and light when heat sealed properly. Our pouches are all designed to be puncture resistant, so your products are that much safer while in transit and on display.

Your pouches will arrive open at the top, so you can fill them! You will have to seal them yourself with an impulse heat sealer at temperatures between 250–350°F, which helps protect contents from being exposed to the elements or damaged in transit.

If your customer is likely to discard the pouch immediately after your product has been removed, then you don't need a zipper. If your product is designed for long-term use, we recommend adding a reclosable zipper to make it easy for customers to open and close the pouch. If you do add a zipper, a single-track zipper will be added approximately 1.25-1.5" from the top edge of the pouch, depending on pouch size. To see exact placement by size, you can download a template of your desired size from the ‘Specs & Templates’ section of this page.

The Euro hole is 0.39" x 0.98", while the round hole is 0.31" in diameter. On all pouch sizes but 1, both of our hole options are available. For our smallest pouch (3.25" x 4.75" x 2"), only the round hole is available.

Yes, you can print on the front, the back and even the bottom of the pouch – a great place for bar codes and non-essential information. Bear in mind that there is a fold line and crease in the center of the bottom section, which could distort text or any bar or QR codes.
