How to Choose the Right Size Stand-Up Pouch for Your Coffee Needs

Before choosing a pouch size, determine your packaging needs:

Product Type: Are you selling coffee beans, ground coffee, or instant coffee? Each has a different density and volume, directly affecting pouch size. For instance, 500g of coffee beans require more space than 500g of ground coffee. Selecting the right coffee bean packaging ensures proper fit and freshness.

Target Audience: Who are your primary customers—families, office users, or individuals? Their preferences impact the size choice. Families may prefer larger coffee storage bags like 500g or 1kg pouches, while individuals often opt for smaller custom coffee pouches such as 100g or 200g packs.

Sales Channel: Are you selling in supermarkets, online platforms, or coffee shops? Supermarkets demand shelf-friendly sizes, while e-commerce requires durable, transport-friendly coffee stand-up pouches.

Brand Positioning: Whether your brand is premium, mid-range, or budget-friendly will influence your packaging decisions. Premium brands often lean towards smaller, more elegant packaging, which is crucial for positioning high-quality ground coffee pouches.

Cost Efficiency: Balancing packaging costs with product value is essential. Oversized pouches increase costs, while undersized ones may compromise product appeal and usability.

Here are practical suggestions with real-world examples:

Case 1: 250g Ground Coffee for Family Users, Sold in Supermarkets. Suggested Size: 18cm x 26cm + 8cm (Width x Height + Bottom). This size is perfect for 250g ground coffee and provides excellent shelf visibility.

Case 2: 100g Coffee Beans for Individual Users, Sold Online. Suggested Size: 12cm x 18cm + 6cm (Width x Height + Bottom).

Ideal for single-use or short-term storage, ensuring durability and convenience in transit.

Case 3: 50g Instant Coffee for Travelers, Sold in Convenience Stores. Suggested Size: 8cm x 12cm + 4cm (Width x Height + Bottom).

Compact and portable, this size is ideal for on-the-go users needing convenient coffee storage bags.

Measure Coffee Volume: Use a measuring cup or kitchen scale to determine the volume or weight of the coffee you plan to pack.

Leave Extra Space: Add at least 10%-15% extra space for sealing, venting, and product settling.

Calculate Dimensions: Use the adjusted volume to determine the pouch's dimensions. You can consult online calculators or professional suppliers like ZB Packaging for guidance.
