Custom Printed Flat Pouches
A flat pouch — also called a three side seal pouch — has no gusset, so it lies flat in a carton and presents one clean printed panel. It is the cheapest flexible format per unit and the usual pack for snack portions, samples, sachets, cards and small retail items that are displayed flat or shipped in an outer box. The decisions are the fill weight, the barrier, whether the pouch needs a tear notch or a hang hole, and the print coverage across the front. Send the fill weight and the quantity.
