1. Consumer Demand Has Changed

Today’s consumers expect more:

  • Portability – Lightweight, resealable, and easy to use on the go
  • Sustainability – Lower plastic use compared to rigid containers
  • Convenience – Less mess, easy storage, and a better experience

Brands like GoGo squeeZ, Method, and Honest Company have embraced this format for its lifestyle fit.

2. Operational Advantages for Brands & Co-Packers

Spouted pouches streamline your operation:

  • Lower shipping costs (up to 70% savings)
  • Reduced warehousing space (1 pallet = 10+ bottle pallets)
  • Faster, scalable production with manual or automated fillers

Whether you're a co-packer or a brand scaling DTC, this format offers flexibility with less overhead.
