Coffee Packaging Bag Manufacturers

Our Coffee Packaging Range

The coffee family sits inside a wider flexible packaging platform that includes Mono-Material Package structures for recyclability programs and Stand up Pouch formats shared with other food categories.

Material and Barrier Considerations

Roasted coffee releases carbon dioxide for days after roasting and simultaneously degrades through oxygen and moisture uptake. The packaging structure has to manage both directions of that exchange without ballooning or losing aroma.

• Oxygen and moisture barrier: aluminium foil or metallised layers for extended shelf life; EVOH co-extruded layers where foil-free transparency is required.
• Degassing: one-way valves sized to the fill weight and roast profile, positioned to avoid seal and print areas.
• Seal integrity: food-grade LDPE sealant layer tuned to the customer's sealing temperature, pressure and dwell time.
• Puncture and drop resistance: PA or co-extruded cores for transit durability and vacuum or frozen storage.
• Recyclability options: mono-material PE structures for programs targeting a single polymer stream.

Configuration Options We Build Into Each Pouch

Configuration is driven by the filling line and the retail format, not by a fixed catalogue. We confirm each of the following during the proposal stage.

• Pouch format: flat bottom, box pouch, stand-up, side gusset or three-side seal
• Closure: slider zipper, press-to-close zipper, tin tie, or valve-only
• Valve: one-way degassing valve, position and diameter matched to fill weight
• Printing: 10-colour rotogravure for volume runs, digital printing for low-MOQ and short campaigns
• Finishing: matte, gloss, soft-touch or textured lacquer, plus optional sticker labels
• Roll or pre-made: roll stock for automatic VFFS lines, pre-made pouches for manual or semi-auto filling

Production Capacity and Quality Control

Our Shanghai plant runs multi-layer co-extrusion film blowing and rotogravure printing lines, with a daily output of approximately 550,000 packaging bags and 2,500 tonnes of roll film. Production is managed under ISO 9001, HACCP, BRC and GMP systems, with ISO 13485 also held for medical-adjacent work.

Quality control covers incoming resin verification, in-process seal and print checks, and final inspection against customer specification. Physical tests include tensile strength, puncture resistance and seal performance; chemical and barrier tests cover material composition and gas transmission. Freezing, vacuum and transport simulation tests are used where the application requires them, and batch traceability runs from raw material to finished goods.

Line Integration, Installation and Acceptance

Coffee pouches are usually filled on VFFS, premade-pouch or doypack lines. We match film width, core diameter, winding direction, coefficient of friction and sealant layer to the machine so that the film runs at the line's rated speed without wrinkling or seal failure.

• Film and pouch dimensions confirmed against the filling machine's forming collar or pouch magazine
• Seal window and pressure range agreed with the customer's sealing parameters
• Valve and zipper placement checked against fill head clearance
• First-article samples and pilot rolls supplied for line trials before mass production
• Acceptance criteria documented per batch, with inspection reports available on request

Information We Use to Configure Your Solution

To prepare an accurate configuration and quotation, we work from the following project inputs. Missing items are confirmed with the customer before production begins.

Maintenance, Documentation and Delivery Scope

Coffee pouches are consumables rather than maintained equipment, so serviceability focuses on consistent reorder quality and stable print reproduction across batches. We retain reference samples and print standards so repeat orders match the approved first article.

Documentation typically includes material structure confirmation, batch inspection records and certificates covering ISO 9001, HACCP, BRC and GMP. Packaging is supplied on cores or in cartons suited to the customer's handling, and delivery is arranged by sea or air from Shanghai, roughly 50 km from Shanghai Port.

Frequently Asked Questions

What structures do you recommend for roasted coffee beans?

For extended shelf life we recommend PET/AL/PE or PET/VMPET/PE, which provide strong oxygen and moisture resistance. Where a foil-free or recyclable structure is preferred, we build PA/EVOH/PE or mono-material PE options and confirm barrier performance against the target shelf life.

Do your coffee bags include a degassing valve?

Yes. Because roasted beans release carbon dioxide, we add a one-way valve to prevent the pouch from ballooning or bursting. Valve diameter and position are matched to fill weight and the filling line's clearance.

Can you supply plain coffee bags from stock?

We hold stock of white and black public-version bags in 250 g, 500 g and 1 kg formats, including aluminium foil and flat-bottom styles. These suit roasters who apply their own labels or stickers.

What artwork do you need for custom printing?

We require ready-made .ai or .pdf files from your designer. We do not provide design services, but our prepress team checks colour separation, bleed and print registration before plates are made.

Can you produce roll film for our VFFS line?

Yes. We supply 7–11 layer co-extruded PA/PE and PA/EVOH/PE roll film, with width, core diameter and winding direction matched to your form-fill-seal equipment. Pilot rolls are available for line trials.

What certifications cover your coffee packaging?

Our production is managed under ISO 9001, HACCP, BRC and GMP systems, with ISO 13485 also held. Batch inspection records and certificates are available with each order.
