Stand-up pouches are primarily used to pack liquid or pasty products. This packaging is small, easy to carry, lightweight, and provides a larger printing area. These packages are also appreciated for their transparent design possibilities. As a result, stand-up bags frequently replace plastic bottles and cans.

Pouches and stand-up pouches can be made from various materials and structures (duplex, triplex, quadruplex structures, PE, PP, BOPET, BOPP, OPA, PETmet, Siox, Alox, and so on). The conventional composite system is a thick PE film composed of a laminate bonded to a back-faced BOPET or POPA substrate.
