Companion Small-Pet Side-Gusset Feed Pouch
Companion Small-Pet Side-Gusset Feed Pouch
A wide-mouth side-gusset pouch for small-pet pellets, opening into a bin shape that a scoop can reach into.
Specification
| Bag type | Green & Recyclable |
| Structure | Side-gusset pouch with two lateral gussets and a wide-mouth top, so the pack opens into a bin-like shape and a scoop or hand reaches the bottom easily; reinforced bottom fold for a flat stand |
| Material | DRAFT / TO CONFIRM - mono-material PE direction, avoiding a paper or mixed-fibre layer so that pelleted feed dust does not compromise the seal. Sample candidates: (a) MDO-PE 25 micron / water-based ink / PE sealant 90-105 micron; (b) PE structure with a 30% PCR direction for the outer layer. Grade, PCR share and seal performance against pellet dust are unverified and must be confirmed by filling trials - not a confirmed specification. |
| Total thickness | 115-130 microns total (Draft / To Confirm) |
| Closure | Press-to-close zipper with a wide top opening and a fold-over hook-and-loop-free flap option; easy-tear notch at the top seal |
| Print process | Flexographic surface print, up to 8 stations, water-based inks, with print clear of the gusset folds (Draft / To Confirm) |
| Finish | Matte finish throughout with a smooth seal band at the top; no foil, no metallic ink |
| Window | A wide clear unprinted band is available on the front so the pellet colour and fill level read through; the clear zone uses the same PE film rather than a separate window patch - To Confirm |
| Handle | None on 1 lb and 2.5 lb; a punched finger-hole or a soft die-cut handle on the 5 lb size - To Confirm |
| Degassing valve | None. Dry pelleted feed only, with no valve or spout offered |
| Origin | Dongguan, Guangdong, China |

| Environmental claim status | CLAIM PENDING - NOT VERIFIED. No recyclability, recycled-content or mono-material claim is validated for this SKU. Store drop-off eligibility for a side-gusset pack of this thickness, the effect of the zipper profile on any recovery route, and any PCR figure all remain unverified. Only the wording 'mono-material PE direction - claim status under verification' may be used until supplier declarations and an independent assessment are on file. |
About this structure
Small-pet feed is dusty, fine and usually handled with a scoop, so this pouch is shaped for that. Two lateral gussets and a wide top turn the pack into a bin-like container that stays open on the floor or in a cage-side tray while the owner scoops, and the reinforced bottom fold keeps it standing. The structure is specified in a mono-material PE direction with no paper layer, because feed dust sitting in a paper fold would damage both the seal and the shelf look. The front panel is left blank with a clear band reserved for the buyer's own brand. Duties & taxes are not included in quoted prices.
Why brands choose it
- Wide Open - bin-shaped handling format for scoop users
- Green & Recyclable
