Foil Laminated (Pure Aluminum) Packaging
Pure aluminum foil (AL) laminated structures offer absolute light, oxygen and moisture barrier performance. Typical structure: PET / AL / PE. The aluminum foil layer (7-12μm) provides 100% light blocking and excellent gas barrier, making it ideal for products sensitive to oxidation and moisture.
Key Advantages
- 100% light-proof and UV protection
- Excellent oxygen & moisture barrier for extended shelf life
- Food grade safe, suitable for long-term storage
- Compatible with gravure printing up to 11 colors
Typical Applications
Stand Up Coffee Pouch
Flat Bottom Coffee Bag
Milk Powder Pouch
3 Side Seal Sachet
Metallized Film (VMPET) Packaging
Vacuum metallized PET film (VMPET) is a cost-effective alternative to pure aluminum foil. Typical structure: PET / VMPET / PE. The thin aluminum coating (30-100nm) provides good light and oxygen barrier at a lower cost, suitable for mid-range shelf life requirements.
Key Advantages
- Excellent cost-performance ratio
- Good light reflection and moisture barrier
- Lighter weight than pure foil structures
- Suitable for most food and daily chemical products
Typical Applications
Stand Up Snack Pouch
Zipper Lock Bag
Back Seal Pouch
Side Gusset Bag
Kraft Paper Laminated Packaging
Kraft paper laminated packaging combines natural paper texture with plastic barrier layers. Typical structure: Kraft Paper / VMPET / PE or Kraft / PE. It delivers a premium natural look while maintaining functional protection, widely preferred by eco-conscious brands.
Key Advantages
- Natural kraft texture, premium eco-friendly appearance
- Good stiffness and puncture resistance
- Available with PLA biodegradable coating
- Excellent for branding with minimalist design
Typical Applications
Kraft Stand Up Pouch
Kraft Flat Bottom Bag
Kraft Zipper Bag
8 Side Seal Pouch
Clear Transparent Laminated Packaging
Clear transparent packaging uses food-grade transparent films to fully showcase your product. Typical structure: PET / PE or PA / PE. High clarity film allows customers to see the actual product inside, boosting purchase confidence for visual-driven products.
Key Advantages
- High transparency, excellent product display effect
- Food grade safe, direct contact with food
- Good sealing strength and tear resistance
- Lower cost compared to barrier structures
Typical Applications
Clear Stand Up Pouch
Transparent Zipper Bag
3 Side Seal Pouch
Flat Vacuum Pouch
High Barrier Laminated Packaging
High barrier structures use specialized barrier films (EVOH, PVDC, MOPP) to achieve exceptional oxygen and moisture resistance without full aluminum foil. Typical structure: MOPP / VMPET / PE or PA / EVOH / PE. Ideal for products requiring medium-long shelf life.
Key Advantages
- Superior oxygen & moisture barrier performance
- Better puncture resistance than standard structures
- Suitable for modified atmosphere packaging (MAP)
- Extends product shelf life significantly
Typical Applications
High Barrier Vacuum Bag
Barrier Stand Up Pouch
MAP Packaging Pouch
ESD Barrier Bag
Retort Grade Laminated Packaging
Retort packaging is designed to withstand high temperature sterilization (121℃ / 135℃ retort process). Typical structure: PA / AL / RCPP or PET / AL / RCPP. Maintains full barrier performance after high temperature cooking, ensuring food safety and shelf life.
Key Advantages
- Withstands 121℃-135℃ high temperature sterilization
- No delamination, no leakage after retort process
- Food grade RCPP inner layer, high temperature resistant
- Room temperature storage after sterilization
Typical Applications
Retort Stand Up Pouch
3 Side Seal Retort Pouch
Pet Food Retort Pouch
Sauce Retort Pouch

Frequently Asked Questions
Which material is best for coffee bean packaging?
For coffee beans, we recommend pure aluminum foil (PET/AL/PE) structure with one-way degassing valve. It provides 100% light and oxygen barrier, preserving coffee aroma and freshness for the longest shelf life. For budget options, VMPET metallized film is also a viable choice.
Can I customize the material layer structure?
Yes, we offer fully custom material structures. Our engineering team will recommend the optimal film combination, thickness and layer structure based on your product characteristics, shelf life requirements, filling method and budget. Contact Jason for free material consultation.
Are all your packaging materials food grade compliant?
All our packaging materials meet FDA and LFGB food contact safety standards. We use 100% virgin food grade raw materials and can provide third-party test reports upon request. We strictly implement quality control in every production process.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom printed packaging?
For gravure printing (high quality, large production), MOQ starts from 10,000 pieces. For small quantity orders, we offer digital printing solution with MOQ starting from 1,000 pieces. Contact us with your specific requirements for an accurate quotation.
Do you provide free material samples?
Yes, we offer free stock material samples for quality testing. You only need to cover the express shipping cost. For custom printed samples, we charge a sample fee which will be deducted from your bulk order payment. Contact Jason to arrange your sample pack.
