Customer experience: Right-fit pouches are easier to handle and reseal.
Standard Pouch Sizes Reference
Below are the standard sizes used across most food and spice packaging:
Flours & Powdered Products
Powder-based products such as atta, maida, besan, cocoa powder, and coffee grounds have a fine texture that settles tightly inside pouches.Use the following pouch sizes:
Pulses, Grains & Rice
For whole grains and pulses, use slightly larger pouches since they occupy more air volume.
Whole Spices & Seeds
Spices and seeds vary widely in density — small seeds like mustard or fenugreek are dense, while light spices like bay leaf and star anise need more volume.These pouch recommendations are based on MyPerfectPack’s tested filling data:
Dry Fruits & Nuts
Dry fruits need space for air cushioning; use these pouch sizes:
Beverages & Specialty Items
Grocery Staples
