Shaped Pouches
Shaped pouches provide a guaranteed way to stand out on retail shelves. With a wide range of in-house pouch converting equipment and die-cutting technology, we can design and manufacture customized pouches with modern, ergonomic shapes.
Die-cut shapes can reinforce your branding, add convenience by making a package easier to use, and even provide structural benefits such as providing additional stability or preventing “stress cracking”.
With stand up pouches and bags rapidly becoming more common, shapes are a new frontier for brands to differentiate from competitors and stand apart on the shelf.
Customized Shaped Pouches
Pouch shapes can be completely customized based on your specifications. Examples include:
- Convex shaped pouches (ergonomic and easier to grip)
- Hourglass shaped pouch (ideal for liquids)
- Shaped pouches with rounded corners
- Shaped pouches with ergonomic handles
- Squeezable pouches shaped with built-in spouts (removing the need for a fitment or straw to consume the product)
From customized shapes to innovative fitments and spouts, Glenroy offers the capabilities you need to create consumer-centric pouches that stand out.
Modern Die-cutting Technology
Our modern inline die-cutting equipment allows us to produce unique pouch shapes outside of the norm, without compromising efficiency. Whether you need simple shapes or rounded corners, we have the capabilities to produce your shaped pouches effectively.
Package Engineering & Prototyping
Our packaging engineers can help you throughout the entire process, from concepting to engineering to production. Collaborating and brainstorming with you to ensure your pouches meet the goals of all stakeholders, we can create innovative custom-shaped pouch prototypes, printed with your own graphics to create a realistic prototype. In addition to unique shapes, your prototypes can incorporate fitments and other value-added features that add convenience and appeal for consumers. Our knowledgeable packaging engineers have helped several brands turn ideas for shaped pouches into reality.
