In the snack food market, dried fruit packaging is undergoing a transformation from "simple wrapping" to a "functional carrier". Mainstream bag types such as stand-up pouches,3 side seal pouch, and flat-bottom pouches, through material innovation and design optimization, not only address the core need of moisture-proofing and freshness preservation for dried fruits, but also accurately match circulation, display, and consumption scenarios, becoming a key driver for brand competition.
Stand-up pouches have become a new consumer favorite thanks to their "self-standing feature", with the practical innovation brought by their bottom support structure being highly favored. This type of pouch can stand on its own without leaning against anything, staying firmly in place whether on office desks or tables, and avoiding the hassle of spilled snacks after opening. Equipped with a widened sealing strip design, it can be sealed with a simple pinch after use, eliminating the need to find extra clips, making it perfectly suitable for scenarios requiring multiple uses.
On store shelves, the three-dimensional shape of stand-up pouch bags is more visually striking than flat pouches, quickly catching consumers' attention. Currently, popular categories such as freeze-dried rosa roxburghii and dried mangoes have widely adopted this bag type. Some products, combined with thickened aluminum foil composite materials, use a three-layer structure of "outer wear-resistant film + middle aluminum foil layer + inner food-grade film" to firmly lock in the fruit aroma and crispy texture.
3 side seal pouch have secured a position in the mass market with "pragmatism", and their unique back-sealing design hides distinct advantages. Without sealed edges on both sides, the bag body can withstand greater pressure, significantly reducing the damage rate during transportation and stacking. They are particularly suitable for light-weight bulk freeze dried fruits such as raisins and dried red dates.
More notably, the flat front surface of three side seal bag provides a complete space for design. Dried fruit brands can use soft color tones and abstract patterns to convey the natural and pure characteristics of their products, balancing practicality and aesthetics.
Today, many freeze dried fruit brands have upgraded three side seal bags with degradable transparent high-barrier films, which have a water vapor transmission rate of ≤1g/m²/day and an oxygen transmission rate of ≤1.0cc/m²/day. These films not only allow consumers to see the contents clearly but also degrade into harmless substances within 180 days under composting conditions.
Flat-bottom pouches have captured the high-end market with "load-bearing capacity". Flat bottom pouch with zipper stand out due to their stable structure with eight sealed edges. They can be placed steadily and have strong load-bearing capacity, making them the first choice for high-quality, heavy dried fruits such as dried mangoes and dried durians.
Their square shape not only facilitates storage and display but also enables function integration through material upgrades.
Some products use high-barrier films based on PLA (polylactic acid), combined with Siox (silicon oxide) inorganic coating technology. While ensuring a light transmittance of ≥88%, they effectively delay oxidative browning and extend the shelf life by more than 30%.
With the global market for freeze-dried fruit still growing, packaging innovation is now a key determinant of customer perception and brand competitiveness. Every type of packaging, from long-lasting, flat-bottom pouches to moisture-proof stand-up pouches and pressure-resistant 3-side seal bags, represents the freeze-dry food industry's shift toward greater functionality, sustainability, and visual differentiation. Leading dried fruit companies will depend more and more on **custom high-barrier sustainable food packaging** in 2025. This type of packaging not only preserves freshness but also conveys brand value through careful design and environmentally friendly materials.
