Yes, This is what makes this pouch very very special. Regular papers breath. It may be good for short shelf life but not long term storage. Special milling technique gives shelf life up to 6 months depending on the products. Heat Sealable: This is another important property of this product because most of the paper pouches are made with gluing and also tape is used to close it. We don’t use any glue to form the pouch and you can use simple heat sealers to seal.

Compostable Pouches or bio-degradable Stand-Up Pouches: Compostable Pouches are the pouches that has to become a compost, degrades and become edible by insects or used in soil. The idea of pouch getting composted into soil and we don’t have to do about it makes us feel very good but it is not the whole truth. Compostable pouches only compost in some certain temperature and humidity if not they remain as they are. If we are worried about marine litter it is very likely that a fish may eat it like a plastic get sick with it, later we eat them and we also get sick too.

A goal of Circular Economy Action Plan is helping consumers and public authorities choose sustainable products and services. Use of plastic is growing rapidly over the years. Flexible packages and stand-up pouches are part of the plastic use. Many people think that use of plastic is not good for the environment. It is not the case when we compare with other alternatives like, glass, paper, tin cans etc. One must look at the total carbon print from production to transportation and re-use option.

Today, we are moving towards a circular economy and using the same resource of our world over and over again has become more important. Now we have Monolithic finished stand up pouches made of layers all made of Polyethylene or Polypropylene. This kind of stand up pouches can be re-granulated and used in extruding new plastic pouches. Theoretically this can be done over and over again without losing its original properties. Bio-Based Stand-up Pouches means made of starch or other plants from soil. It means that when producing a bio-based pouch we use no or less fossil resources like oil.
