Our comprehensive range of sustainable pouch materials gives you the aesthetic edge and functionality you need to get your packaging noticed. For added convenience choose a reclosable zipper, while rounded corners really can really catch your customer’s eye.
All our materials have been created with sustainability in mind. All are recyclable or compostable. Get in touch and we’ll help you choose the best option for you.
Metallic plastic is a mono material structure which can be fully recycled anywhere that has an LDPE recycling stream. It provides the highest level of protection from air, moisture and UV. Its distinctive metallic layer means that it’s great for companies looking to give their packaging a premium silver or gold effect.
Recyclable structure with high moisture and aroma protection. Its simple structure makes it less expensive than conventional non-recyclable pouches.
A pouch with a transparent window can showcase the quality of the product packed inside. It also provides a high level of protection and is fully recyclable.
Compostable pouch structure made from renewable and bio materials. All components are certified as compostable and meets the criteria of EN 13432.
Plastic free recyclable pouches made from FSC certified paper. Pouches are made from renewable sources. This is as eco-friendly as it gets!
Our different add-ons can help you make your pouch more versatile and easy to use for your customers.
Keep your products fresh for longer and safely packaged with a reclosable zip lock.
A tear notch makes it easier for customers to open horizontal form pouches. The tiny slit in the end seal guides the customer, and provides them more convenient and fuss free access to the product. Not only that, it also ensures that no important information is torn through.
Rounded corners give your pouch a smoother look and help them to stand out from the competition.
If you are producing smaller pouches that need to be hung in store, then a euro hole is an essential add-on.
A coffee valve allows coffee gasses to be released to the environment, without fresh air entering the inside of the pouch. This way your coffee stays fresh longer and your pouch is protected from inflating.
Yes. All our pouches can be used in contact with food products.
For stand up pouches, we can add zip locks, tear notches, rounded corners, eurohole and degassing valves.
For side gusset bags, we can add tear notches, rounded corners and degassing valves.
Within our standard range we offer stand up pouches (doypacks) and side gusset bags. As custom packaging we can also manufacture sachets or 3 side seal bags and flexible packaging in reels. Different materials and sizes are available for doypacks and side gusset bags too.
Datasheets are available upon request for each structure.
It is impossible for us to determine the shelf life of your product as each product is different and reacts to oxygen, water vapour and UV light differently. We can provide you with barrier information for each material structure, but only food specialists can calculate the shelf life with this information.
Having that in mind and from our experience, a rule of thumb for most applications are 12-24 months for recyclable plastic pouches and 6-12 months for recyclable paper and compostable packaging.
Different products require different protection levels from the environment. Most common measures of the packaging barrier are oxygen transmission rate (OTR) and water vapour transmission rate (WVTR). Instead of creating an exhaustive list of possible barrier combinations, we have created a universal plastic structure suitable for the vast majority of applications. It might be an overkill for some applications, but it won’t do any harm for your product either.
Also, it is important to note that plastic free recyclable paper pouches and compostable pouches have significantly lower protection from environment and thus not suitable for all products. Moreover, wet products cannot be packed inside paper and compostable pouches.
If you are uncertain which pouch is suitable for your product, get in touch with us and our specialists will help you choose the best option.
Everything that falls outside of our standard pouch range is considered custom packaging in our standards. If you are looking for different sizes, materials or quantities, get in touch with us at info@lprint.com and we can talk more about it.
Flexible packaging is lightweight in nature and uses significantly less materials for production. Furthermore, it has much higher product-to-packaging ratio, meaning it’s transportation and warehousing costs will be lower too.
We understand that you might be new to questions of packaging and sustainability. And it can all get quite confusing quickly. That’s why we are happy to dedicate our time to helping you navigate through it all. Contact us for a free consultation and we’ll help you come up with the best result for your business.
