Quad Seal Pouch

Quad Seal Pouch Comparison with Common Three-Sided Bag

What Materials and Techniques Are Used for Quad Seal Pouch?

1. Common materials:

Various composite materials can be used according to product requirements.

• Standard type: BOPP/CPP, PET/PE, suitable for lightweight products with low barrier requirements.

• High barrier type: PET/AL/PE, PET/VMPET/PE, suitable for products sensitive to oxygen and moisture.

• Abrasion-resistant type: PA (nylon)/PE, suitable for products with sharp edges or hardness.

2.  Manufacturing process:

Use a quad seal pouch machine, completing the heat sealing of four sides at one time or step by step. The process is more complex than the three-side sealing bag but simpler than the flat bottom bag.

What Are the Applications of Quad Seal Pouches?

The application of quad seal pouches is very extensive, and it is particularly suitable for the following situations:
