Multi Layer Frozen Food Packaging Pouch With Anti Fog Easy Open Design

Film Structure: PET/PE & BOPP/PE

A Popsicle Packaging Pouch is a cost-effective, high-performance flexible pouch designed for single-serve frozen treats such as ice pops, freeze pops, and juice bars. Utilizing two widely adopted film structures—PET/PE and BOPP/PE—this pouch provides reliable moisture protection, excellent seal integrity, and good mechanical strength, ensuring popsicles remain fresh, intact, and visually appealing from production to consumption.

• Outer Layer: PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate)

  • Thickness: 12–20 µm

  • Functions:

    • High gloss and clarity for vibrant printing and product visibility

    • Excellent tensile and puncture resistance

    • Dimensional stability across a wide temperature range

  • Key Properties:

    • Moisture barrier: Good

    • Oxygen barrier: Moderate

    • Surface energy: High (ideal for printing and lamination)

• Inner Layer: PE (Polyethylene – LDPE or LLDPE)

  • Thickness: 40–70 µm

  • Functions:

    • Heat-sealable food-contact layer

    • Provides primary moisture barrier

    • Maintains flexibility at freezing temperatures

  • Key Properties:

    • Seal initiation temperature: ~110–130°C

    • Cold-crack resistance: Below –40°C

    • WVTR (Water Vapor Transmission Rate): ~5–10 g/m²/day

• Bonding:

  • Laminated using solvent-based or solvent-free adhesives

  • Bond strength maintained from –40°C to 60°C

• Outer Layer: BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene)

  • Thickness: 20–30 µm

  • Functions:

    • Superior moisture barrier

    • High clarity and gloss

    • Stiffness for easy handling and stacking

  • Key Properties:

    • Moisture barrier: Excellent (WVTR ~3–7 g/m²/day)

    • Oxygen barrier: Low

    • Stiffness: Higher than PET at same thickness

• Inner Layer: PE (Polyethylene)

  • Thickness: 40–70 µm

  • Functions and properties similar to PET/PE structure

These pouches are ideal for:

• Water-ice / freeze pops – fruit-flavored tube pops

• Juice bars – 100% fruit juice frozen bars

• Simple cream pops – dairy or plant-based popsicles without high fat sensitivity

• Value packs & multi-packs – family packs (6–24 pieces)

• Foodservice & bulk packs – for schools, events, concessions

• Short-to-medium shelf-life products – typically 12–18 months frozen

Shared Benefits:

• Strong Seals: Reliable heat seals prevent leakage

• Freezer Burn Protection: Adequate moisture barrier for typical shelf life

• Child-Safe Opening: Can be designed with easy-tear notches

• Space Saving: Flat pouch design optimizes freezer space

• Lightweight: Reduces shipping costs versus rigid packaging

• Easy-Open Features: Laser scoring, tear notches, pull-tabs

• Printing: High-definition rotogravure or flexographic printing

• Finishes: Gloss, matte, or soft-touch surfaces

• Shape: Pillow pouches, gusseted bottoms, or shaped cuts

• Special Features: Hanging holes, transparent windows, anti-fog coating

• Material Reduction: Uses significantly less plastic than rigid clamshells

• Lightweight: Lowers transportation emissions

• Recyclability: Currently limited due to multi-material structure; mono-material PE alternatives emerging

• Food Waste Reduction: Adequate shelf life reduces spoilage

Choose PET/PE when:

• High-quality printing and glossy appearance are priorities

• A balance of moisture barrier and cost is needed

• Slightly higher temperature resistance is beneficial

Choose BOPP/PE when:

• Maximum moisture barrier is critical

• Lower material cost is a key driver

• High stiffness and good machinability are required

The Popsicle Packaging Pouch in PET/PE and BOPP/PE structures offers a practical, economical solution for protecting frozen novelties. While not designed for extended shelf life or high oxygen-barrier needs, these pouches deliver reliable performance for most commercial popsicle products, combining essential protection with manufacturing efficiency and consumer appeal.

Best for: Mainstream popsicle brands, value segments, private label products, and applications where cost control and reliable basic protection are paramount.

• Minimum Order Quantity: 500kg
• Samples: Available ($0 - $500 USD)
• Printing Plate Charge: $70 - $150 USD (one-time fee for custom designs)
• Packaging: Secured in cartons and palletized for international shipping
