Recyclable Sachet Bags for Sport Nutritional Supplement Packaging
A 140 micron sachet with matte film, pure aluminum and PE layers, providing a strong barrier against moisture, oxygen and light for sport nutrition and supplement powders.
This sachet is built from a matte film outer layer, a pure aluminum barrier layer and a PE inner sealant layer, with a total thickness of 140 micron. The aluminum layer blocks moisture, oxygen and light, which protects sensitive ingredients such as vitamins, creatine and protein blends from degradation. The matte finish gives a soft, non-reflective surface that holds print well. The structure is customizable, so you can adjust the material combination or thickness for different barrier needs.
These sachets suit single-serve or sample-sized portions of sport nutrition and dietary supplements. They run on standard vertical form-fill-seal lines, and the PE inner layer allows strong heat sealing. A tear notch makes opening easy without scissors. For products that release gas, a one-way degassing valve can be added. A zipper is not typical on a sachet this size, but a window can be included if you want to show the powder. If you need full recyclability, a mono-material PE structure is an option, but it will not match the barrier of an aluminum laminate. Choose the aluminum version when shelf life and ingredient stability are critical.

Frequently asked
What barrier does the pure aluminum layer provide for supplement powders?
The aluminum layer blocks moisture, oxygen and light, which helps maintain the potency of vitamins and other sensitive ingredients. It is suitable for products with a shelf life of 12 months or more. If you need a fully recyclable structure, a mono-PE option is available but offers lower barrier.
Can these sachets run on my existing vertical form-fill-seal machine?
Yes, the 140 micron structure is designed for standard VFFS lines. The PE inner layer seals at typical temperatures, but you should confirm your machine's sealing parameters. A tear notch can be added for easy opening.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom printed sachets?
With digital printing, MOQ starts from 100 pieces for pouches. For rotogravure printing, MOQ is 10,000 pieces. Lead time is 10-15 working days for digital and 20-25 working days for rotogravure after artwork approval.
