Rice, Grain & Dry Staples

Heavy fills need packaging that can carry them.

Flat-bottom laminate bags and woven sacks for rice, flour, pulses and dry staples, from one kilo to fifty.

The problem

A bag that holds five kilos is a structural problem before it is a printing one.

Start with the fill weight and how the bag is handled between the mill and the shelf. At five kilos and up the bag is dropped, stacked and dragged, so seal strength, handle reinforcement and puncture resistance are the specification; barrier is the easier half.

Each one is a construction and a fill size the plant runs for rice, grain & dry staples, shown in a different brand language. Every brand shown here is invented. These are design studies, not photographs of printed customer orders, and nothing pictured is a supplier specification.

The same build, four ways

One rice bag, four directions.

The band above shows which constructions the plant runs for rice, grain & dry staples. This one holds a single one of them - a flat-bottom box pouch at 2.5 kg rice, the construction we would start you on - printed four ways. Same bag, same size, same plant. The build is not the thing that decides how yours looks.

Structure

Why this stack, for this category

A printed polyester face over a nylon layer, sealed with polyethylene. At these weights the failure is mechanical rather than chemical: the bag is dropped, stacked and dragged, so puncture resistance and seal strength decide the structure long before barrier does.

Outer layer
