Estimating the term…
The present disclosure provides semirigid pouch designs and methods of manufacturing pouches. Such pouches can be made of plastic or non-plastic materials and may be easily sorted and recycled within existing rigid packaging recycling streams. The pouches are semirigid, while flexible, and will substantially retain their shape during and following product dispensing. This is accomplished by sealing a lower edge of a wall of semirigid plastic or non-plastic materials to a rigid or semirigid base, enabling the pouch to stand up on the base. Portions of an upper edge of the wall are affixed together to form a space to hold the foodstuffs. Further, the present pouch design does not require an additional label to be applied by the manufacturer, as the present design provides a large, uninterrupted, surface area for printing of advertisements and/or labels directly to the outer surface of the pouch.
