Common Spouted Pouch Applications
There are a wide range of applications for spouted pouches as these products are easy and economical to design for compatibility with retort and FDA regulations. While many industries are beginning to utilize spouted pouches for more creative products, these flexible packaging options are already available on many shelves.
From alcoholic beverage mixers to baby food, yogurts, and cleaning chemicals, spouted pouches are a great way to showcase your product with easy shelf storage and positive customer experience.
Convenience of a Pouch, Shelf Life of a Can
One of the biggest benefits of spouted pouches is their ability to provide significant protection to the product inside. With a properly designed, robust packaging designed to fit the product itself, spouted pouches can not only improve your bottom line but also increase customer satisfaction. These pouches help keep your products shelf stable with excellent lining materials and unique gusseted designs.
With the convenience of a pouch – simply twist the cap open and pour – these packages offer the shelf life of aluminum-lined cans, providing the ultimate stability for maximum shelf life.
Are There Disadvantages for Spouted Pouches?
There are not many disadvantages for spouted pouches, but there are some risks with certain materials mixed with different product types. For example, only certain materials can be heated in the pouch, while other materials cannot be recycled.
For most spouted pouch packaging, the primary risk is going too thin or gusseting the package improperly, leaving the product with a risk of puncturing and tearing. With proper packaging design, however, this risk is minimized as all risks to the product’s stability and security are accounted for in the consultation and design process.
Are Spouted Pouches Recyclable?
Not all spouted pouches are recyclable, but many are through programs like Terracycle for hard to recycle plastics.
