8 Reasons Why Operations Managers Love Stand Up Pouches

Since the stand up pouch was introduced, marketers in every sector have flocked to them for their unique branding possibilities and the many benefits they have for consumers. But operations professionals have also grown particularly fond of the stand up pouch, simply because it can help them save a lot of time and significant amounts of resources. For example:

1. Stand up pouches are made of incredibly durable materials that cannot be smashed, crushed or damaged the way glass, plastic or cardboard can. They can also protect package contents from contamination from outside elements like water or oxygen. This is essential for makers of food or chemical products.

2. The manufacturing process for stand up pouches is incredibly quick and efficient. It takes significantly less energy to piece together a stand up pouch than it does to custom-make a rigid plastic or glass bottle or container. With today’s rising energy costs, this is more than just a benefit -– it is a necessity.

3. In most cases, stand up pouches use 75% fewer materials than rigid containers of comparable size. Not only is this good for the environment, but it also can reap tremendous benefits when it comes to the bottom line.

4. Most pouches are made from recycled or recyclable materials, which means they can adhere to the stricter sustainability practices that more and more businesses are adopting today. In addition, this greener packaging solution is more appealing to discriminating consumers who are concerned with a product’s environmental impact.

5. Because they are made using substantially fewer raw materials, stand up pouches produce a low volume of waste and take up less space in garbage cans and landfills. In addition, their durability means that many consumers are reusing the package to store other items even after the product is gone.

6. Stand up pouches weigh substantially less than their plastic, glass and paper counterparts. For operations professionals, this means a significant savings when it comes to transportation costs.

7. Not only do pouches weigh less than their packaging cousins, but they can also be flattened when they are empty. This means that many more empty packages can fit into a carton, thereby decreasing both transportation and storage costs.

8. Consider the expense one must go to in order to have a custom-made bottle or container made from plastic or glass. Intricate and complex measurements, costly molds and exorbitant production costs are a thing of the past with stand up pouches.
