A flexible pouch for low-acid foods that are filled when a product is heated or thermally processed after filling. Applications include pet foods, infant and toddler foods, liquid foods and condiments, rices and grains.
Ensuring your product has a stable shelf life, maintains freshness, and tastes the way you intend it to starts with the package filling process. Both retort and hot fill processes involve heat treatment to enable the packaged product to be sterile and shelf-stable without refrigeration. Retort or hot fill pouches from Sonoco work well for moist or pureed foods such as pet food and treats, baby food, sauces, condiments, as well as prepared rices and grains.
Stand up pouches maximize shelf impact by offering a large printable surface on a flexible package that stands up and faces the consumer.
