Custom side gusset Mylar bags are specialized bags made in such a way that they expand in the form of a square or rectangle when they are filled with products. They have vertical pleats on both sides and provide a high barrier. These side-gusseted Mylar bags are durable and long-lasting. They are made in such a way that their capacity is increased when they are filled.
When you are sourcing these bags in Canada, you should buy from Mylar Bags Maker. We have high-grade bags, and the prices are very economical. Our side-gusseted mylar bags start from as low as $0.55 per unit. The price is further reduced upon bulk orders and discounts.
How are these different from regular mylar bags?
The regular mylar bags either have a single gusset bottom as in custom standup pouches or are usually flat mylar pouches. When those regular bags are filled with products that exceed their capacity, they expand in an unpleasant way. This disturbs the brand’s logo. Those bags will also occupy more space on the shelves. On the other hand, these side-gusseted mylar bags have expandable sides and distribute the weight evenly on both sides.
Customizations and specifications
Whenever you want to place an order for side gusset bags in bulk, most of the brands go for customized bags. They can choose different materials, some add-ons, and the finishing options as well. Apart from that, they choose the design that they want to print on the bags.
Materials
There are different materials that are used in the making of these bags. The layers of this bag are made with the following materials:
- Layer 1: BoPET or PET
- Layer 2: Aluminium foil
- Layer 3: PE
When you want an additional layer, you can go for choosing kraft paper to make kraft-side gusseted mylar bags. The outer layer can be made with any custom layer. Some people like to add a protective layer of nylon or CPP for extra protection and strength.
Design and Printing
The design is chosen by the customers; they decide which one they want to go for. Many brands opt for a central logo design and product-related information written on the back side. Other brands prefer complete customization and branding of the bags according to the color and theme of the brand.
