The industrial as well as the retail environment both have shown a tremendous growth in the use of stand up pouches. With its growing popularity, various printed pouch manufacturers have introduced numerous combinations of colours such as clear fronts with colored foil backs etc. of printed packaging pouch. Because of this innovation, many companies have been able to add colors in their style of packaging that too without any such increase in the cost. Not only this, companies have also abandoned applying the ready made labels and now they have their own customized printed standard pouches. In order to lower the cost and speed up the pricing, some things that printed pouch manufacturers can follow is:
•Becoming familiar with what is actually being packed. This includes the nature of the product, its durability, its state (Solid or liquid) etc. the product that has been packed, gently effects the choice of material on which the buyer gets printed standup pouches and what kind of packing machine is required or used.
•Information that is very critical to the supplier of the product is the weight and size of the product. Depending on these factors, the supplier determines the thickness of the film so as to assure that the product is not only protected but is also quite strong to stand firm by itself.
•What exactly the user expects from his stand up pouch barrier film to do is the next area to be considered. There are no set statistics to judge this barrier. This includes factors like shelf life of the product, protection form high temperature places, flammable substances, transportation facilities available in the place where the product is supplied, season in which the product is manufactured, moving and shipping conditions, etc.
•The type of the film that the buyer wants in his printed stand up pouch. This includes types like clear fill pouch or the metalized foil that doesn't allow the user to see through. Many people think that clear foil is not a very good barrier as metalized foils are, but this a misconception. According to the product, the printed standup pouch suppliers provide the best guidance to the customers regarding which style to choose and why.
•The final price of the printed as well as normal standup pouches depends on features like tear notches, zip locks, etc. the better the features, higher is the price.
•Design the style of the printed stand up pouch on your own. This many times bring out the most creative and innovative ideas no other people have ever though off. But this sometimes also comes with a limitation that the supplier might not be able to design according to your requirements and hence there is a need to change.
Thus printed pouch manufacturers can keep these things in minds with packaging pouch material and packing machines to get the best deal at the cheapest prices.
