About this product
This pouch puts paper in the leading role. A 60-80 gsm kraft web carries the print and the shelf presence, while a thin coating and liner do the barrier work that paper alone cannot do for fat-containing kibble. The flat bottom panel with quad corner seals makes the pack stand square and stack like a box, so it reads well on a shelf and travels safely in a parcel. The surface is left uncoated and tactile, and the front panel stays blank so the buyer's own brand can be applied. Duties & taxes are not included in quoted prices.
Aimed at North American cat-food brands that want a paper-forward look in the aisle and a story that can be told honestly at the fibre-recycling stage once testing is done. The square flat-bottom format stacks neatly on a 4 in facing and ships flat, which suits e-commerce parcels and club-store display trays.
