Aluminum Foil Stand Up Ziplock Bags with High Barrier

Short Description:

When a product requires multi-layered packaging, manufacturers normally use foil pouches. They are used as the innermost layers of packaging. It’s very important for foil pouches to be of top quality and extremely hygienic since they are in direct contact with the packaged product. Generally, foil pouches are made out of aluminum and protect the product from extreme temperatures. Additionally, foil pouches maintain a low rate of moisture vapor transmission.

Usually foil pouches have 3-4 layers. The more the number of layers, the better the pouch quality is considered to be. Each additional layer adds to the strength of the pouch. It’s worth a mention here that foil pouches are different than metalized bags.

Foil pouches are extensively used for packaging of cereals. They are so designed that cereals retain their freshness for long periods. With other forms of packaging, cereals might get pest infested. Along with the safety against infestation, these pouches offer a sound storage option. They do not occupy much space and are easily portable.

These flexible pouches are also widely used as packaging for tea and coffee. They ensure the beverages stay fresh and retain their aroma. Foil pouch packaging is used in the non-food arena as well. Since they are hygienic and safe, they are often used for packing surgical instruments and medicines.

Foil Packaging for Medical Products

Packaging medical products has traditionally been a difficult decision due to the lack of available options. That’s why the versatility and safety of stand up pouches has quickly made them the go-to industry choice for packaging.

The move to stand up foil pouches as a preferred packaging method has resulted in a wide range of medical, laboratory and biological products being sold this way. Everything from pharmaceutical products, medical products, herbs, seeds, powders and proteins are now available within foil pouches and bags.

Before you make up your mind about placing a stand up pouch order for your own medical offering, we broke down the key things you need to know about foil packaging:

What is foil packaging and how is it used for medical products?

You've likely had prescription pills which come in a pack, each pill sitting neatly in a clamshell where it’s protected from humidity and contamination by a seal of aluminium foil. We call this type of foil Blister (or, indeed, Clamshell).

We also work with laboratories and medical companies who use foil packaging to safely transport medical devices and samples. These include:

• Blood sample bottles

• Petri dish

• Wound care

• Life-saving valves such as the resuscitation valve

• Medical accessories such as catheter and other tubing sets
