For today's consumers, snacks need to be packaged in appropriately sized containers that are lightweight and easy to carry, but can be resealed and enjoyed later. Stand-up pouch meet these requirements while providing an excellent corrosion barrier even after opening and resealing the package.

In the past, bulk snack food packaging was the standard. However, the most important thing for today’s new generation is convenience and portability.

Snacks Packaging also has flexible Packaging Machinery Requirements such as nitrogen flush. This option blasts nitrogen gas into the pouch after product filling and before bag sealing to displace ambient oxygen. This decreases the risk of oxidation that leads to spoilage and increases the shelf life of the product.
