Side gusset coffee pouch — Trusted by Roasters for Bulk, Branding, and Logistics
Designed for roasters who move coffee at scale, the side gusset coffee pouch is a time-tested, space-efficient solution that supports both bulk logistics and brand presentation. Its expandable side panels and rectangular structure create a compact, brick-like form — perfect for dense filling, tight stacking, and streamlined palletizing.
This gusseted coffee bag is especially favored in wholesale, contract roasting, and green coffee packaging thanks to its strength, versatility, and full-surface printability. Whether you’re packing 10g samples or 20kg shipments, the reinforced seams and bottom weld keep contents secure while keeping the overall packaging lightweight.
From origin-country exports to retail-ready formats, the side gusset pouch remains a trusted standard for commercial roasters seeking reliable, scalable, and brandable coffee packaging.
Why Coffee Roasters Choose Side Gusset Pouches
- More Coffee, Less Bulk
Side gusset coffee pouches hold up to 30% more product than stand-up pouches of the same footprint — ideal for high-volume SKUs like 1kg, 2kg, or even 5kg bags.
- Efficient for Palletizing & Transport
The squared shape fits tightly in cartons and containers, reducing per-unit freight cost and saving storage space — especially valuable for exporters and distributors. - Flexible for Both Manual and Automatic Filling
Compatible with high-speed filling lines and also practical for hand-packed orders, especially when paired with resealable options like tin ties or zippers. - Custom Printing and Finish Options
Full-panel printing across all four sides — available in kraft, foil, soft matte, metallic, or recyclable film — gives your packaging a premium presence without sacrificing performance.
Frequently asked questions
Are side gusset coffee pouches better than stand-up pouches for large volumes?
Side gusset pouches expand more efficiently and pack more coffee for their size. They also compress into a rectangular shape that stacks neatly, making them the preferred format for 1kg+ packs and B2B orders.
Can I add both a valve and a tin tie to a gusseted coffee bag?
Yes. Many roasters pair a one-way valve with a resealable tin tie for freshness and user convenience. Placement of each can be customized for manual or automated packing.
