Stand Out in a Sea of Sameness

In a modern grocery store, there are dozens of options available for customers to choose from. While price may be a deciding factor for some, many customers are still forced to choose between several options that may – or may not –be a good option for their needs.

Even if a customer compares products, it’s difficult to decide on which to begin comparing. Good packaging can make a difference in their choice. Standard packaging simply doesn’t make the sales anymore, making customizable, standout packaging even more essential to manufacturers.

Exceptional products deserve exceptional packaging that helps it cut through the noise and grab your customers’ attention. At Maco PKG, we are dedicated to helping your brand stand out in a sea of sameness, elevating your brand while protecting your product and making your customer feel good about their purchase.

Stand-up Pouch Packaging Options

When it comes to choosing packaging for your product, there’s no doubt that the options available can be overwhelming.

Should you have high-barrier film, or is your product shelf-stable enough to maintain its freshness with regular, thinner film? These are the kind of questions that we are happy to ask so you don’t have to. By working with our team of packaging specialists, you can continue to focus on your job, manufacturing excellence with every product shipped.

At Maco PKG, we specialize in quality materials, including closures, working with you to choose a custom design that works best for your intended audience.

Your product isn’t one-size-fits-all, and with Maco PKG, neither is your packaging.

We offer a variety of material choices, such as clear plastics and biodegradable options, as well as a variety of closure mechanisms like ziplocks and velcro. If your product requires packaging that can handle liquids, our spouts ensure a no-mess experience for your customers.

  •  Spouted or fitment pouches – for easy opening and product use, whether you need top or corner-opening pouches.
  • Stand-up bottom gusset pouches – either inserted or folded for maximum stability
  • 3-sided or quad-sealed pouches – for a unique design that your customers are sure to love
  • Box and custom-shaped pouches – to truly showcase your brand’s unique value and catch the customer’s eye with a unique design that can assist with transitions from rigid packaging.

We also offer a range of closure options for products that don’t require a spout. The closure re-asserts your brand’s promise to quality and convenience, allowing the user to efficiently open the package and reseal it with ease. Any package’s closure is an essential aspect of the brand experience. If the closure doesn’t function well, it limits the rest of the package’s ability to sell the product, as the usage falls flat. Choose from the following options:

  • Zippered closures – as a classic choice that has withstood the test of time, zippered closures are considered standard in pouches.
  • Velcro closures – particularly desirable for products that would benefit from less noise or an audience that may struggle with other closure choices. Easy and convenient, Velcro closures offer a quieter experience, perfect for everything from pet food to baby products.
  • Specialized closures – don’t see a closure design here that your product needs? Our team can help you create a specialized closure that suits your brand’s needs exactly. Get in touch today to discuss all available options.

Pouch Gusset Seal Types

Pouch gusseting is another distinction that can set your product apart. This is the part of the material that allows the pouch to stand up, providing it with a stable bottom. While it contributes to the package’s structural integrity, it’s important that it presents your product in a visually appealing way on the shelf and during handling. The different gusset types we offered are specifically engineered to appeal to different brand styles and specific applications:

  • K-seals – named after the “K” shape that the packaging provides when viewed from the side, this type of seal is strong and versatile, providing an optimal balance of volume and stability on the shelf. This type of seal is less likely to wobble or fall over, a reliable option for heavy products like coffee or pet products. The angular design tends to create a modern appeal.
  • Custom designs – like other aspects of our packaging design, we can design a custom gusset seal that caters to your brands needs, truly allowing it to stand out (and up) from the competition.
  • Flat-bottom seals – can give your product a different appeal, lowering the amount of material used in the packaging. This is a very stable, multi-purpose choice for heavier products and can create a look of luxury to the product.
  • Doyen seals – these seals are much softer than the K-seal, creating a gentle appearance. This is excellent for powders or other lightweight products that might get stuck in packaging corners, enabling the user to use all the product available. As an elegant choice, it’s ideal for natural and holistic products.

While the choice of seals is ultimately yours, we are happy to provide design consultation and discuss the best packaging options for your product’s needs. Customer preferences, typical buyer experience, and product types play a major role in distinguishing one design as better than another.

We strive to create a holistic experience for your packaging solutions, partnering with you to establish a long working relationship, elevating your brand so you can expand your product line and grow your bottom line.

Converting from Rigid to Flexible Packaging?

Making the switch to flexible stand-up pouches from Maco PKG is a positive transformation that redefines your brand identity by improving your consumer’s experience. While rigid containers are often seen as more durable, advances in flexible packaging technology have made stand-up pouches highly effective in preserving product integrity.

High-barrier films, specialized seals, and other innovations ensure that your product remains fresh and safe during shipping, on grocery store shelves, and finally, the customer’s pantry.

Rigid packaging often involves materials like glass, hard plastics, or metal, which are not just heavier, increasing cost of shipping, but also bulkier. Additionally, flexible packaging prioritizes consumer convenience with features like resealable closures, tear notches, and ergonomic designs. This enriching experience can turn casual buyers into loyal brand advocates.

In contrast, flexible packaging is lightweight and takes up less space, allowing you to ship more products for the same cost. As your production scales, flexible packaging offers a more economically sustainable model for growth.

When you choose Maco PKG, you’re choosing more than a packaging solution, you’re choosing a partner to elevate your branding and create a connection with your customer. We are your partner in sales and consumer experience, creating opportunities for your business growth.

We offer turnkey solutions that make the transition from rigid to flexible packaging easy and impactful. If you’re thinking about whether making the switch is the right choice for your products, we invite you to request a custom quote and explore the game-changing advantages that flexible stand-up pouches can bring to your product line.
