Buyer questions

Questions before you order.

01

Is stand-up always the safest choice?

It is flexible, but flat-bottom, spout, window, or high-barrier structures may fit better by product.

02

When should I use a spout pouch?

Use a spout pouch for refill, liquid, gel, sauce, or dispensing-focused products.

03

Can format change after artwork begins?

It can, but changing format usually means reworking the dieline and artwork panels.

More options

Keep planning the launch.
