Recyclable PP Flat Bottom Pouch With High Barrier
A recyclable PP flat bottom pouch with high barrier, built from BOPP/MPET/PE, protects dry goods and offers a sustainable option for brands.
This flat bottom pouch is a recyclable packaging option constructed from a BOPP/MPET/PE laminate. The BOPP outer layer provides stiffness and printability, the metallized PET (MPET) layer adds a high barrier against oxygen, moisture, and light, and the PE inner layer allows for heat sealing. Thickness is customizable to meet specific product protection needs. The flat bottom design gives the pouch a stable base, making it suitable for retail shelves and efficient packing.
Brands use this pouch for dry products such as coffee, snacks, pet food, and tea. It runs on standard filling lines and can be heat sealed after filling. Options like a one-way degassing valve, zipper, window, or spout can be added depending on the product. While the PP-based structure is recyclable in some streams, it may not match the barrier of foil laminates for very sensitive items. For those, a mono-material PE or foil structure might be better. This pouch balances recyclability with good barrier for many applications.

Frequently asked
What is the minimum order quantity for this recyclable flat bottom pouch?
MOQ starts at 100 pcs for digital printing and 10,000 pcs for rotogravure. Digital print runs take 10-15 working days after artwork approval, while rotogravure takes 20-25 working days.
Is this pouch suitable for coffee with a degassing valve?
Yes, a one-way degassing valve can be added to release CO2 from roasted coffee while blocking oxygen. The high barrier from the MPET layer helps maintain freshness. However, if you need the highest barrier for long-term storage, a foil laminate may be more effective.
Can this pouch be recycled?
This pouch is designed to be recyclable in certain streams due to its PP-based structure. However, recycling facilities vary, and the metallized layer may affect recyclability. For a more recyclable option, consider a mono-material PE structure, though it may offer lower barrier.
