High Temperature Retort Pouch Heat-Resistance Up To 135℃
Retort pouch built from AlOx PET, PA and RCPP for heat sterilisation up to 135°C, giving a high barrier to oxygen and moisture for ready meals and sauces.
This retort pouch is a flexible pack designed for in-pack sterilisation. The structure is a three-layer laminate: an AlOx PET outer layer, a PA middle layer and an RCPP food-contact sealant. AlOx PET provides an oxygen and moisture barrier without aluminium foil, so the pack can be metal-detected and microwave-reheated. PA adds puncture and flex-crack resistance through the retort cycle, while RCPP gives a seal that holds at 135°C. Thickness is set by the application; the sealant layer must be thick enough to survive the fill and retort process without channeling.
The format suits foods, soups, stews and sauces that are filled hot or cold and then retorted. Fill through the open top, then seal and trim. A spout and cap can be added for squeezable or pourable products, and a tear notch helps opening. A zipper is not recommended for retort because the track can deform under heat. If you need a fully recyclable structure, a mono-PE laminate will not match the 135°C barrier of AlOx PET/PA/RCPP; it is better for pasteurised or chilled products. Choose this retort structure when shelf stability and heat resistance are the priority.

Frequently asked
What retort temperature and time does this pouch withstand?
The structure is rated for retort up to 135°C. The actual time and temperature depend on your product, fill weight and retort equipment. We recommend a trial run to confirm seal integrity and barrier performance.
Can I get this pouch with a spout and cap for a squeezable product?
Yes, spouts and caps can be fitted, including corner spout and STANDCAP options. The spout material must also withstand 135°C. Note that adding a spout may increase the minimum order quantity and lead time.
What is the minimum order quantity and lead time for custom printed retort pouches?
With digital printing, MOQ starts at 100 pieces and lead time is 10–15 working days after artwork approval. Rotogravure printing requires 10,000 pieces minimum and takes 20–25 working days. Free stock samples are available; you only pay courier.
