Foil pouches are essentially stand up pouches. Like stand up bags, they are made from laminating together several layers of different materials. The materials used in foil pouches make them different from other stand up pouches. The structure of a typical stand up pouch consists of several polymer layers placed one above another. Its polymer layers give it a structure, oxide layers form a barrier against oxygen, and substrate stays in contact with food or non-food products without chemically reacting with them.

There are several advantages of using foil pouches. StandUpPouches.net’s foil pouches are made from FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved materials. These materials are used to produce contaminant-free and toxicity-free films. So an advantage of foil pouches is that they are safe to package food and non-food products.

Another advantage of using foil pouches is their cost. Foil pouches are cheaper than almost all other mainstream packaging materials. Despite being less expensive, manufacturers do not have to compromise on consumer convenience when they choose foil pouches. Features such as tear notches, hang holes, and zip locks make them very convenient to use for consumers. This is an important consideration for any manufacturer who is planning for the long term. Consumers will only keep on coming if packaging is convenient.
