Wholesale Flat Bottom Foil Gusseted Pouches with Valve
Flat bottom foil pouch in matte oil/aluminum/PE, 140 micron, with degassing valve. High barrier for roasted coffee, snacks, and tea.
This flat bottom pouch is built from a matte oil finish, pure aluminum layer, and inner PE sealant, totaling 140 micron. The aluminum core blocks oxygen, moisture, and light, which slows staling in roasted coffee and keeps snacks crisp. The flat base lets the filled bag stand on a shelf without support. A one-way degassing valve is standard on coffee versions; it vents carbon dioxide without letting air in.
The format suits 250 g, 500 g, and 1 kg fills. Filling lines that drop product through the top opening work well; the flat bottom needs a sealer that can close the top seam squarely. A zipper can be added for resealability, but it raises unit cost and requires a slightly taller pouch. A window is possible, though it breaks the aluminum barrier and shortens shelf life. For brands that need kerbside recyclability, a mono-material PE structure is a better choice than foil, but it will not match the oxygen barrier of aluminum. Use foil when shelf life matters most.

Frequently asked
Does the degassing valve work with ground coffee?
Yes, but the valve is most effective on whole bean coffee, which releases carbon dioxide for several days after roasting. Ground coffee degasses faster and can clog the valve if fines migrate into it. If you pack ground coffee, choose a valve with a filter or skip the valve and rely on the aluminum barrier.
Can I get this pouch in a recyclable mono-material?
Yes, mono-material PE and PP recyclable structures are available. They meet kerbside recycling guidelines in some regions. However, they provide a lower oxygen barrier than the aluminum foil version, so shelf life for roasted coffee may drop from 12 months to 6 months or less. Test with your product before committing.
What is the minimum order quantity and lead time?
With digital printing, MOQ is 100 pouches and lead time is 10-15 working days after artwork approval. Rotogravure printing requires 10,000 pouches and 20-25 working days. The 140 micron thickness is standard; other thicknesses may affect MOQ and lead time.
