Choose a 100% paper stand up pouch for non food products, or for food applications with fast turnover where only limited protection is needed and you want the packaging to go easily into the paper recycling stream. Think of items like cards, textiles, cosmetic samples, dried flowers, or bakery products and to go snacks that are consumed quickly. Keep in mind that 100% paper offers less protection against moisture, grease and oxygen, so it is not ideal for long shelf life or products that are highly aroma or fat sensitive. If you need more protection, choose a paper pouch with an extra inner layer or barrier. Go for 100% paper when maximum recyclability via paper collection is your priority.
