Stand up pouches / Doypacks
Stand-Up Pouches for Coffee, Tea, Spices & More
Stand-up pouches - also known as doypacks - are the go-to packaging for anything that needs to stay fresh, aroma-sealed and shelf-ready: coffee, tea, spices, CBD products and dietary supplements. Their self-standing base, large front-panel print area and wide range of closure and barrier options make them the first choice for coffee roasters, spice traders and other B2B fillers who need to both protect and present their product.
At Europe-Pack you get stand-up pouches - with or without aluminum, with zipper, valve or both, transparent or in kraft-paper look - from stock in Germany, without digging through individual supplier catalogs. This page gives you an overview of which variant fits which use case.
Who Are Stand-Up Pouches For?
Stand-up pouches are used across industries. Typical use cases, and which material structure tends to suit them best:
Sustainability & the PPWR: What to Watch in 2026
The EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) places new requirements on the recyclability and material use of packaging - including flexible packaging like stand-up pouches. Two levers already help make your packaging more future-proof today, without giving up barrier performance:
For the full background on the PPWR and what it means for your packaging in practice, see our blog article on the PPWR. Looking for compostable packaging or a mono-material solution instead? Stand-up pouches aren't the right category for that – take a look at our Organic Bags (compostable) or OPP Bags (mono-material, recyclable) instead.
