Material Guide: Choose the Right Barrier

Not all materials are equal. Here's what each one does — and who it's for.

Industry Standard

High-Barrier

MOPP / VMPET / LLDPE
🛡️Shelf life: 6–12 months
🎯Best for: Retail, wholesale, export
♻️End of life: Not recyclable
💰Cost: Most affordable

The workhorse. Metallised film with near-zero oxygen transmission. Maximum shelf life at the lowest cost per unit.

Most Popular Eco

Recyclable

Mono PE / PP structure
🛡️Shelf life: 6–9 months
🎯Best for: Fast-moving retail, eco brands
♻️End of life*: Kerbside recyclable
💰Cost: Moderate

Best balance of sustainability and performance. Designed for kerbside recycling where mono-material streams are accepted. Ideal if coffee sells within a few months.

Circular Economy

Recyclable PCR

Post-Consumer Recycled PE
🛡️Shelf life: 6–9 months
🎯Best for: Brands with ESG goals
♻️End of life*: Kerbside recyclable
💰Cost: Moderate–Premium

Same barrier as recyclable, but made from up to 30% post-consumer waste. Sustainability before your customer even opens the bag.

Plant-Based

Compostable PLA

Kraft / PLA lining
🛡️Shelf life: 6–9 months
🎯Best for: DTC, farmer's markets
♻️End of life*: Industrial compostable
💰Cost: Premium

Made from corn starch. Breaks down in industrial composting within 3–6 months. A strong sustainability choice.

Full Compost

Compostable NKME

NK / NKME / PBAT
🛡️Shelf life: 6–9 months
🎯Best for: Premium eco, zero-waste brands
♻️End of life*: Industrial compostable
💰Cost: Premium

100% compostable — valve, zipper, everything. Slightly better barrier than PLA. Full commitment to compostability.

* End-of-life outcomes depend on local recycling and composting infrastructure. Check your region's accepted streams.

Common Questions

Digital print from 2,000 units (small runs from 500 possible but cost per bag is significantly higher). Rotogravure from 10,000 units — lower per-unit cost at scale. Request a quote and we'll recommend the best option for your volume.

Production: 2–3 weeks (digital) or 5–6 weeks (gravure) from artwork approval, plus 4–5 weeks shipping to Europe. Total ~6–8 weeks for digital, ~10–11 weeks for gravure. Industry average is 10–12 weeks.

Digital = lower MOQ (from 2,000), faster turnaround, ideal for launches and seasonal runs. Gravure = lower per-unit cost at volume (10,000+), best colour consistency for long runs. Not sure? We'll advise based on your volume and timeline.

Yes. Send us your current bag or spec sheet and we'll match the size, material, barrier, and features exactly. We can also suggest improvements based on 20 years of packaging experience.
