Flat Bottom Pouch or Square Bottom Pouch is a unique packaging type with a reinforced flat base that ensures excellent stability and secure shelf placement. Made from multi-layer materials, it provides reliable product protection and a long shelf life.

Flat bottom pouches are gaining popularity due to their numerous advantages for both manufacturers and consumers.

Side Gusset Bag features special side gussets that increase pouch capacity and allow handy packaging of a large amount of product. Once filled, it stabilizes and stands on its own. This design ensures compact storage and attractive appearance on the shelf. The multi-layer structure protects contents from moisture, oxygen, and light, helping preserve quality throughout the product's life cycle.

Advantages of flat bottom pouches:

CONVENIENCE AND STABLE SHAPE ON THE SHELF

These bags have excellent self-standing ability, which helps save valuable shelf space. This makes the packaging ideal for retail, where proper product presentation is essential.

LOWER TRANSPORT COSTS & REDUCED CARBON FOOTPRINT

Flat bottom and side gusset pouches weigh far less than glass or rigid plastic containers, leading to reduced shipping costs and lower CO₂ emissions — making them both eco-friendly and cost-efficient.

MULTILAYER STRUCTURE AND LONG SHELF LIFE

Barrier materials protect contents from moisture, light, and oxygen — which allows to extend the shelf life of products without compromising their quality.

CONSUMER CONVENIENCE

Options like various zipper types, euro slots, and handles enhance ease of use and boost brand loyalty.
