Short answers to what buyers ask most. Every pouch is made to your spec: size, film, finish, zipper and print. If your question is not here, message us — we reply within 24 hours.
What is your minimum order quantity for custom mylar bags?
Custom printed mylar bags start at 500 pieces per design. Ready-made stock bags start at 200 pieces and ship within 3 days of payment. Gravure printing, which gives the lowest price per bag, usually starts at 10,000 pieces.
How much do custom printed mylar bags cost?
Price depends on the size, film structure, finish, zipper and quantity. As an example, a 3.5 g matte stand-up pouch with a standard zipper is US$0.60 per bag at 500 pieces, US$0.33 at 1,000 pieces and US$0.16 at 3,000 pieces. Send your size and quantity and we reply with pricing and a dieline, usually within 24 hours.
What are mylar bags made of?
Mylar bags are flexible pouches made from multi-layer laminated film. A common structure is a printed PET outer layer, a metallised or aluminium-foil barrier layer, and a PE inner sealing layer. The film structure, thickness and barrier level are set to your product, and we confirm the exact laminate in your quote.
What sizes and shapes can you make?
Standard sizes run from 1 g (7 x 9 cm) up to 1 lb, including 3.5 g, 7 g, 14 g and 28 g. Shapes are stand-up, flat and custom die-cut to your own outline. Any other dimension is made to order — send your own size and we build the dieline around it.
Can you print my logo and artwork in full colour?
Yes. Send a logo or a sketch and our free design service turns it into print-ready artwork for every panel. We print full colour, front and back, up to 10 colours on high-speed gravure for larger runs, and match brand colours on request. You approve a finished pouch before bulk production.
Do you make child-resistant mylar bags?
Yes. Child-resistant zippers are available on every size from 3.5 g up to 1 lb, and the pouch stays resealable after opening. We supply samples for your own certification testing, because child resistance is tested and certified in the market where you sell — we do not hold a test report on your behalf.
Can mylar bags be used for food or supplements?
Mylar pouches are widely used for dry foods, powders, snacks, coffee, tea and supplements. Tell us what you pack and where you sell, and we confirm the film structure and the documents we can provide with your quote. Printed labels and warnings follow the rules of your market, and that sign-off stays with the brand.
What is the production and shipping lead time?
Production takes about 3 to 10 days after you approve the artwork, and orders ship within about 5 days of completion. Ready-made stock bags ship within 3 days of payment. Exact dates are confirmed in your quote, and we tell you before a deposit if a run takes longer.
Can I get samples before placing a bulk order?
Yes. Sampling comes before bulk production on every custom order: we make a sample pouch so you can check size, film, print and zipper on your own product, and the full run starts only after you approve it. Samples carry a sample fee, confirmed up front.
What finishes and features are available?
Finishes are matte, glossy, holographic and soft touch, with foil, rose-gold foil and spot UV available on request. Features include a resealable zip lock, child-resistant zipper, tear notches, round corners, clear window, hang hole, bottom print and a heat-sealable back — several can be combined on one pouch.
Where are you based, and do you ship worldwide?
We are a factory in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China, with 18 years in the packaging industry, 36 sets of high-speed bag-making machines and in-house gravure printing, solvent-free lamination and bag making. We ship worldwide — include your delivery country in the quote request and we confirm the shipping option.
