Frequently asked questions

Which materials are recyclable and are there recycling certificates?
Some of our materials are fully recyclable and can be disposed of either via the yellow bag (for plastic) or the blue/green garbage can (for waste paper). The recyclability of our materials is confirmed by the Cyclos-HTP institute. Conformity with the following standards is also certified:
 
  • Minimum standard for assessing the recyclability of the ZSVR (German Central Agency Packaging Register).
  • DIN EN 13430 with regard to recyclability in the post-consumer phase.

Below you will find a list of our materials that are certified as recyclable:

What is the smallest size available for Flat Pouches?

Our online calculator offers a wide range of options for flat pouches, but not all combinations can be covered online. The minimum size varies depending on whether a zipper is to be integrated into the pouch or not. Contact our customer service for a quote outside of our online options.

Minimum size stand-up pouch:

  • Flat pouch without zipper: 57 mm x 70 mm (width x height)
  • Flat pouch with zip: 70 mm x 100 mm (width x height)
What pouch materials are offered and what barrier do they provide?
We offer a variety of materials for our pouches, including mono-materials, paper/plastic composites, and plastic-free barrier papers. Each material offers specific protective properties that meet the requirements of different products. Additionally, our materials are available in various options, including white, transparent, metallic, and paper look. Moreover, we offer different surfaces, such as matte or glossy film.

All our materials contain a functional barrier, which consists of either EVOH, AlOx, or aluminum. This barrier protects the content from loss of aroma, the penetration of oxygen, moisture, and possibly UV radiation. Furthermore, our materials are certified recyclable depending on the composite.

How can I create a custom window for my pouch?

To create an individual window for your pouch, use a transparent film and choose the color "4/0-colored + white". The additional white ensures that printed surfaces appear colorful and opaque by being printed as opaque white under the printed design. This means that unprinted areas remain transparent and serve as a window. For a highly transparent window, we recommend a glossy surface material. A matt surface material makes the window appear milky. For more information on how to properly design with opaque white, see our print data guide for flexible packaging. Our media designers will be happy to answer any questions you may have at any time.

Step by step instructions:

  • Step 1: Download the appropriate print template for your pouch from our online shop. Then create the desired design in a suitable graphics program. We recommend for example Adobe Illustrator.
  • Step 2: Create a new solid color called “HPI-White”. Then add all the elements that should be printed in white. You must then set all overlying elements of your design to “Overprint area”.
  • Step 3: Save the finished print file as a PDF document and upload the document to the shopping cart under "Print data".
You can find out more about creating the print data for your pouch in our print data instructions for flexible packaging.

Dog food in a Doypack with a viewing window

The selection of stand-up pouches is large. The preformed and very light packaging is available in many different formats, designs and materials. Often the pouches are equipped with notches for tearing off or with a zip closure.

If you want to present your products in an eye-catching and wide-reaching way, pouch packaging is always a very good solution. If you also want to present your products in a transparent and attractive way, we have the perfect solution for you with our stand-up pouch with viewing window.

You benefit from numerous application possibilities. Basically, you can use our Doypacks with viewing window as packaging for food, pet food and non-food products in dry, pasty and liquid form.

The food industry in particular has become unimaginable without packaging solutions of this kind. But the pharmaceutical industry is also increasingly using the pouches as packaging for capsules and similar products.

In addition, our packaging solutions in pouch form and with a 100 percent transparent viewing window are used particularly frequently for the stylish packaging of beauty and hygiene articles and wellness products.

In marketing, this form of packaging is often used for product presentations, sales events or promotional activities. Alternatively, instead of doypacks, you can also equip flat pouches with viewing windows and use them accordingly.

The integration of viewing windows is possible with these materials

As a requirement for the integration of a viewing window in our stand-up pouches, it is mandatory that the material is transparent. In our online shop, we offer you two materials that are ideal for viewing windows: our PET/EVOH/PE film composite in transparent and our PE/EVOH/PE monofilm in transparent. Currently, the latter variant is only available with a glossy surface, while you can choose between a smooth and a matte surface for the composite material.

What's the benefit of a stand-up pouch with a viewing window?

The viewing window is generally of great importance. On the one hand, an integrated window looks elegant and stylish. This clearly enhances the value of the entire packaging and, at the same time, your own product inside the packaging. Accordingly, a transparent viewing window always acts as a visual enhancement and so improves the overall appearance.

On the other hand, you enable consumers to take a look at your product. In this way, you can convince potential customers of the quality of your goods. Studies have shown that the visual impression can be a decisive incentive to buy.

With our stand-up pouches with viewing window, you can achieve exactly this effect. Basically, you benefit on many different levels.

Configure stand-up pouches with viewing window: step by step

When configuring stand-up pouches with transparent viewing window, there are some special features to consider. The most important basic requirement for creating pouch packaging with viewing windows is the material. If you want to have a pouch with a viewing window, the first step is to choose a transparent material.

After you have chosen a stand-up pouch made of transparent material, there is another special feature regarding the color selection. Here it is necessary to select the variant 4/0-color + white.

Now you need a suitable design template. You can get this by clicking on the button "Download print template".

Once you have created your desired design in a graphics program of your choice, you must apply the solid color "HPI-White" to the entire design. This step is very important because it's the only way to configure your pouch packaging so that your viewing window is truly transparent and all other areas can be configured in the colors you want. You can find very detailed instructions on how to do this in our print data guide.

Basically, where the viewing window is to be in the pouch, you must not deposit any white - otherwise this part will not be transparent. This type of design gives you full control over your viewing window and you can design not only the size, but also the shape completely freely.

The focus is exclusively on transparent material

To equip a stand-up pouch with a viewing window, you always need a purely transparent material as a base, as already mentioned. You can choose between these two variants:

Monofoil transparent (pe/evoh/pe)

This approximately 110 μm thick film is made from polyethylene and ethylene vinyl alcohol. These are 100 percent recyclable plastics. The films are completely transparent and have a high oxygen, moisture and aroma barrier.

This monofilm is suitable for stand-up pouches with a viewing window, which are filled with products with a maximum shelf life of 12 months. It can also be food in powder form, pasty consistency or liquid form.

Film composite transparent (pet/evoh/pe)

At 112 μm, this transparent variant is slightly stronger and firmer than the monofilm. It also offers a high aroma, moisture and oxygen barrier. You can fill your pouches with this special film composite with non-food products as well as with food (powders, pastes and liquids). However, the shelf life of the packaged goods should be limited to 12 months.

Doypack with viewing window

Excellent product protection and targeted customer-oriented presentation

Doypacks with viewing window

In combination with a high barrier, free design options according to your individual wishes and very easy handling, viewing windows offer you a variety of advantages. Visually, the value of your products is shown to its full advantage.

But you can optimize the look and functionality even further. Your stand-up pouch with viewing window, for example, can be customized with additional options such as zippers, Euro hole perforations or tear-off flaps.

Reducing costs with the targeted configuration of Doypacks

Packaging is not only a protection factor, but also a cost factor. Therefore, it is important for every company to configure their packaging solutions according to a certain guiding principle: As much packaging as necessary and as little as possible. The top priority of a packaging is product protection. If a stand-up pouch fails to ensure that a product reaches the customer undamaged and fresh, it is unsuitable as a packaging solution. But cost factors also play a significant role here.

If we look at production costs, the main focus here is on cost efficiency. In order to produce packaging as cost-effectively as possible, it is not only necessary to use a suitable material. The size of the packaging must be precisely matched to the product. According to the guiding principle "as little packaging as possible", it is of great importance to produce the packaging in the right size. This not only saves costs in production, but also in storage and transport.

The dimensionally accurate production of stand-up pouches also has another important advantage: the environment is less polluted and the reduced production of plastic also saves resources in energy and waste management. So if you match the size of your Doypacks ideally to your product, you will achieve several advantages that can have a positive impact on your company's success.

The history of the stand-up pouch

The Doypack is a french invention. The entrepreneurs and brothers Léon and Louis Doyen were looking for a new packaging solution for olives in the 1960s. This packaging had to be elastic, resealable and, above all, it had to preserve the flavors of the product inside the package. By using composite film, they managed to create a package exactly as they imagined: The Doypack was born. The pouch packaging was named after the last name of its inventors. The patent expired in the 1980s.

At that time, however, stand-up pouches did not yet have the status within the industry that they have now. The trademark rights were secured by a German soft drink supplier, whose production helped make stand-up pouches very popular. Today's product world would be unimaginable without Doypacks.

Frequently asked questions about stand-up pouches with imprint

Question 1: How big is the viewing window of my pouch?

Answer: Since you determine the shape of the viewing window by not placing white where you want it, you are completely free to decide how large your viewing window should be.

Question 2: How do I get a viewing window for my pouch?

Answer: As mentioned above, the first step is to select a transparent material and apply an "opaque white" to the design for your stand-up pouch with viewing window. All areas that are not backed with white will then become your viewing window. If you have questions about the configuration of viewing windows, just contact our support. There you will get fast support.

Question 3: Can I configure my stand-up pouches with viewing window from paper as well?

Answer: No, because the most important thing is to choose a transparent material. But besides our paper, you can choose many different materials - from monofilm to composite film.
