Custom Zipper Pouches

Custom Printed Zipper Pouches in Matte Black, Kraft, Foil, and Canvas

What custom zipper pouches are used for

A zipper pouch is a pouch with a zipper at the top that opens and closes again. It keeps the contents in, keeps dust and moisture out, and can be used many times. Brands use custom zipper pouches for beauty and skincare products, bath items, coffee, tea, snacks, supplements, jewelry, small accessories, stationery, and travel kits. Film pouches are light and suit products that are sold in the pouch. Fabric pouches such as canvas zipper pouches are kept and reused, so they suit gift with purchase items, merchandise, and kits. A zipper pouch with your logo works as packaging and as a branded item at the same time.

Sizes and how to measure

Pouch size is written as width x height, plus a bottom gusset for a stand-up pouch. To choose a size, measure your item at its widest and tallest point, then add room so it slides in easily. Leave about an inch below the zipper for the item to sit, or for the top to be sealed. Small pouches, about 3.5 in x 5 in, suit samples, jewelry, and lip products. Medium pouches, about 5 in x 8 in, suit most retail products and cosmetics, and large pouches, about 8 in x 10 in, suit bulk items and travel kits.

Example sizes (approximate and for reference only; we confirm the exact size before you order):

• Small: about 3.5 in x 5 in
• Medium: about 5 in x 8 in x 3 in
• Large: about 8 in x 10 in
• Canvas pouch: about 8 in x 5 in x 2 in

Materials, finishes, and zippers

Film zipper pouches come in several materials. A custom matte black zipper pouch has a deep, soft look that makes a bold logo stand out, and a matte white pouch looks clean and modern. Kraft pouches have a natural paper look, and foil or metalized pouches give a barrier from light and air. A clear window can show the product. A custom canvas zipper pouch is a sewn fabric pouch in cotton canvas with a zipper, and it can be lined or unlined. The zipper can be a press-to-close zipper on a film pouch, or a metal or nylon zipper on a canvas pouch, in a matching or contrast color.

Printing and branding

Custom printed zipper pouches in film are usually printed in full color on the front and back, with a matte or gloss surface. A custom printed zipper pouch in matte black can carry a white or gold logo for a strong contrast, and a spot gloss on a matte pouch adds a quiet shine. Custom printed canvas zipper pouch designs are usually screen printed, heat transfer printed, or embroidered. Custom printed stand up zipper pouch designs wrap around the front and back, with room for your logo, your product name, and your details. Keep the main message near the center of the front, and keep important text away from the seals and the zipper.

Labeling notes

If your pouch holds a product for sale, the pouch or an outer label must carry the text that the law requires for your product, such as contents, net weight, ingredients, and warnings. You supply the text and the layout, and we print what you send. We do not write or check label text or claims. Food packaging has its own rules for materials and labels, and you are responsible for the food contact rules for your product.

Orders from 1,000 units

Orders start at 1,000 units, which suits a brand with a steady product and a few designs. Larger orders cost less per pouch, and they can be planned in several sizes and repeated as sales grow. Digital printing on film handles several designs on one size, so you can print different flavors or scents without extra plate cost. Share your expected yearly volume during the free consultation and we plan around it. Pouches arrive empty and you fill them at your own site.

Artwork and dieline

We send a free dieline that shows the print area, the zipper, and the seal areas of your pouch, so you can see where your artwork goes and where it should stay clear. Supply artwork as a vector AI or PDF file with fonts outlined and images at 300 DPI in CMYK. If you have no artwork yet, free design support and a free consultation are included, and our team can help lay out the logo and the text from your brand colors. You review and approve the artwork before production starts.
