Match the pouch to its contents

Start with what you plan to pack, the amount in each pouch and the space the filled product needs. Product weight alone may not tell the whole story: shape, settling and the way the pouch is filled can affect the fit. If you already use a pouch that works, send its dimensions or a sample reference with your brief.

Describe filling, closing and storage

Do not assume a particular laminate, oxygen or moisture barrier, light protection, seal strength or food-contact suitability from the word Mylar. The exact material structure and its suitability must be confirmed for the product and intended use.

Set the print and design variants

Provide the quantity for each size and design, the final artwork or a design brief, and any required product information or codes. The written quote confirms which pouch, closure, print and finish can be supplied and the related price and timing.

Pouch details that shape the quote

  • Product type, fill amount and target finished dimensions
  • How the pouch will be filled and sealed
  • Required opening or resealing method
  • Quantity by size and artwork version
  • Storage, contact or environmental requirements that need verification

Frequently Asked Questions

What are mylar bags used for?

Mylar bags are used to store dry food, herbs and small products, as they block light and air.

What size mylar bag do I need?

If you are unsure about sizing, send the product measurements, quantity and any insert or padding details. The proposed internal dimensions for Mylar Bags should be checked before artwork is approved.

Can I print my brand on a mylar bag?

Tell us what should be printed and where, and share the artwork file if you have one. The print area, colour setup and final file requirements are checked against the selected material and proof.

Do mylar bags have a zip or heat seal?

How the pack closes depends on the selected structure. Tell us whether it needs a locking panel, tuck flap, seal or tape; the closure is confirmed against the chosen format and proof.

Are mylar bags food-safe?

A packaging name alone does not establish food-contact suitability. Tell us what the pack will hold and whether food touches the inside; the full material specification and any supporting documents need to be confirmed before use.

Can mylar bags be used for gifts?

Yes, they suit small gifts and retail packs.

Are mylar bags recyclable?

A “kraft” or “eco” description alone does not establish a recycling or compostability claim. Coatings, laminates, liners, adhesives and local collection can affect the outcome; ask for the exact material specification and supporting evidence before printing a claim.

How long does it take to get mylar bags?

There is no fixed lead-time promise for every order. Share your deadline and postcode, and the written quote will confirm the production and delivery plan for the approved specification.
