Printed Stand Up Zipper Pouches

Do you know what a great packaging company can do for your business? It can make a world of difference to the successful launch of your product, as well as the perception by your customers in regard to your reliability and dependability as a vendor. Your sales can skyrocket and ROI can improve as a result of good packaging. These companies can even come up with transformative ideas that can surpass your expectations. Flexible packaging is among the massively growing solutions, especially in the plastics industry. Instead of using expensive boxes glass jars, and other rigid containers, flexible packaging offers innovation, durability, and significantly increased brand awareness.  Additionally, flexible packaging utilizes between 15 and 25 times less volume than its rigid counterpart – resulting in tremendous savings during transport! Did you know? One truckload of empty (flat) flexible pouches is equivalent to 15-25 truckloads of empty rigid containers! Many factors go in...

Typically made out of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), the degassing valve’s purpose is to periodically allow gas to exit out from the inside of the package when the internal pressure exceeds a certain (small) value. As the name implies, air cannot flow from the outside inwards (because it’s a “one way” valve), resulting in an airtight seal to keep the internal contents fresh. How does it work? When the internal pressure is below a threshold value, the valve is shut to maintain an airtight seal. If the pressure of the internal contents exceeds a certain amount, however, the valve opens to allow for excess pressure to bleed off. By design air cannot enter the package through the valves even if the outside pressure is slightly greater than that of the inside. When is it needed...
