Custom Printed Side Gusset Bags
Side gusset bags are a flexible pouch format with folded side panels that let the bag stand and hold more volume than a flat pouch. They are used for coffee, flour, snacks, supplements, and pet food. Buyers typically need to decide on barrier level, closure type, size, and material. Barrier depends on whether the product is sensitive to oxygen and moisture. Closure options include zippers, degassing valves, or a simple heat seal. Size is set by fill weight and how the bag will be displayed. Send us your product, fill weight, and quantity for a quote.

Side Gusset Bags — frequently asked
What is the minimum order quantity for side gusset bags?
Digital printing starts at 100 pcs for pouches and bags, or 10 kg for rollstock film. Rotogravure starts at 10,000 pcs or 200 kg of film. If you need a printed label on stock packaging, the MOQ is lower. Tell us your target quantity and we will confirm the best option.
How long does production take?
Digital printing takes 10-15 working days. Rotogravure takes 20-25 working days. Both counts start from artwork approval. If you need stock samples first, those ship in a few days. For a firm schedule, send your artwork deadline and we will confirm.
Which material should I choose for my product?
It depends on your barrier needs. Recyclable PE and PP mono-material work for many dry goods. Home and industrial compostable options are available. Kraft paper gives a natural look. Foil and metallised high-barrier laminates protect sensitive products like coffee. Tell us what you pack and its shelf-life target, and we will recommend.
Can I get a sample before ordering?
Yes. We provide free stock samples; you only cover the courier cost. If you need a custom printed sample, that is produced after artwork approval and may incur a setup fee. Send us your address and the material or size you want to see, and we will arrange it.
What types of custom packaging does Clover offer?
We produce the full range of flexible packaging: flat bottom pouches, stand up pouches, flat pouches, spout pouches, side gusset bags, rollstock film and special shaped bags — in recyclable, compostable and conventional laminates.
Can I get a prototype or sample before placing a bulk order?
Yes. Digital printed samples and physical prototypes are available so you can check material, barrier and finish before committing to a production run. Free stock samples ship within a few days.
