Each one is a construction and a fill size the plant runs for specialty food - jerky, trail mix & gourmet, 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 jerky pouch, four directions.

The band above shows which constructions the plant runs for specialty food - jerky, trail mix & gourmet. This one holds a single one of them - a stand-up pouch at 100 g jerky, 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 nylon printed face over an aluminium layer, sealed with polyethylene. Nylon is the layer that survives a sharp jerky edge or a dried-fruit stem, and the aluminium is what holds a long shelf life on a high-value pack.

Outer layer

PA15

Catalog page 8 prints this in a menu of outer, middle and inner options under the heading "the material structure can be customized". It publishes no approved combination and no unit for the gauge, so the layer order and the thickness are set with your quote.

Middle layer

AL7

Catalog page 8 prints this in a menu of outer, middle and inner options under the heading "the material structure can be customized". It publishes no approved combination and no unit for the gauge, so the layer order and the thickness are set with your quote.

Inner layer

PE(40/60/80/100/120)

Catalog page 8 prints this in a menu of outer, middle and inner options under the heading "the material structure can be customized". It publishes no approved combination and no unit for the gauge, so the layer order and the thickness are set with your quote.
