Anatomy of the format

Flat Bottom Bag Structure & Five-Panel Design

Sizing

Flat Bottom Bag Sizes & Filling Capacity

We size flat-bottom bags around product density, fill volume, headspace and the shelf footprint you want. Base width and side-panel depth can be adjusted for larger or lower-density products without creating unnecessary excess material.

  1. 01
    Bulk Density

    Coffee beans, kibble and powders occupy different volume at the same weight.

  2. 02
    Base Footprint

    A wider bottom can improve stance but changes carton count and shelf width.

  3. 03
    Headspace & Top Closure

    Reserve enough top area for filling, zipper, valve clearance and the final seal.

Opening systems

Zipper, Pull-Tab, Tin Tie & Valve Options for Flat Bottom Bags

Choose standard zippers, pull-tab openings, tin ties or coffee degassing valves according to the product and filling process. We position each feature to preserve loading space, final sealing and easy consumer use.

Five-panel branding

Flat Bottom Bag Materials, Printing & Five-Panel Branding

Use the five-panel format for stronger branding, product information and premium presentation. We can apply custom printing with matte, gloss, soft-touch, metallic and other finishes while keeping important artwork clear of folds and seals.

FAQ

Flat Bottom Bag FAQs

What is the difference between a flat bottom bag and a stand-up pouch?

A flat bottom bag uses a box-like base with distinct side panels; a standard stand-up pouch relies on an expandable bottom gusset.

How many printable panels does a flat bottom pouch have?

The format typically provides front, back, two side panels and a bottom area, subject to the exact seal and printing construction.

Are flat bottom bags only for coffee?

No. Coffee is a common application, but pet food, snacks, tea, powders and other dry products can also use the format.

Can flat bottom bags include a zipper and valve?

Yes. Compatible zipper and valve options are available depending on the product, filling method and final pouch geometry.
