Benefits · Coffee packaging

What good coffee packaging needs to do

Flavour preservation

Integrated degassing valve

Freshly roasted coffee needs the right packaging. Our coffee bags with a degassing valve allow gases to escape, keep oxygen out and thus preserve the full flavour of your beans.

Sustainability

Sustainable with a single material

Our sustainable coffee packaging is made from recyclable mono-material: food-safe, great for printing and, after use, back in the right recycling stream.

Efficiency

Less space, greater efficiency

Flexible coffee packaging saves up to 80 % of storage and transport volume compared with tins or jars. Less CO₂, lower costs, full freshness.

Pouches. Doypacks. Flat Bottom Pouches.

All the same. Yet so different.

Degassing valve

The one-way street for your flavour

The small round button on many coffee bags is not a decoration: it is a pressure-controlled valve. If your coffee is filled hot or the freshly roasted beans release CO₂, the membrane lifts and lets the excess pressure out. As soon as the pressure evens out, when the coffee cools down or degassing slows, it closes tightly again. No aroma out, no oxygen in.

Degassing valve in close-up

The only way out.

  1. 1

    Pressure builds up

    Hot filling and freshly roasted beans create pressure in the pouch, whether from the warm air or from the CO₂ the beans release for days.

  2. 2

    Membrane opens in a controlled way

    When the pressure inside exceeds the pressure outside, the membrane lifts and the excess pressure escapes. The pouch does not inflate or burst, and keeps its shape.

  3. 3

    Closes tightly again

    As soon as the pressure has evened out, the membrane settles back. When closed, neither cooled air gets out nor oxygen in. Aroma, sweetness and character stay locked in where they belong.

We can integrate the degassing valve in stand-up and flat-bottom pouches as standard or as an option. In flat pouches, the material barrier does the job. Not sure what suits your coffee? Sebastian will look at it with you.

Anatomy of a coffee bag

What goes into a good coffee sachet?

A coffee bag is more than just a piece of film wrapped around beans. Five components work together to ensure your coffee stays fresh, your design looks its best and the bag sits neatly on the shelf.

FAQ

Any questions about your coffee packaging? We’ve got the answers!

Why is the right packaging so important for coffee?

Coffee is delicate: without the right packaging, over 800 aromas can be lost in no time. Our stand-up pouches for coffee, featuring a high barrier, a degassing valve and a zip, provide optimum protection against oxygen, UV radiation and moisture – ensuring long-lasting freshness and a full-bodied aroma.

What is the function of a degassing valve?

Freshly roasted coffee gives off gases. The degassing valve allows these to escape without letting oxygen in. The result: your coffee stays fresh, the full flavour is preserved – and the packaging doesn’t swell up.

Which material is best suited to my coffee packaging?

We use recyclable, single-material packaging with a strong barrier. It reliably protects beans and ground coffee from moisture, oxygen and UV light. Ideal for preserving the quality and flavour of your coffee – sustainable and practical at the same time.

What sizes are available for coffee packaging?

We offer seven sizes, specially designed for coffee:

  • M-Short, M & L – ideal for sample sizes and 250g packs
  • XL-Short & XL – perfect for 500g to 750g of coffee
  • XXL-Slim & XXL – The right choice for 1kg packs.

As coffee beans vary depending on the roast and grind, we always recommend a test fill to determine the ideal pack size.

What extras are available for my coffee pouches?

We offer a range of extras to ensure your coffee packaging is just right:

  • aroma-seal valve – for optimum freshness
  • Velcro zip or standard zip – for easy resealing
  • matt or soft-touch finish – for a sophisticated design

Can I order a personalised coffee bag with my own design?

Of course! Our printed coffee bags can be fully customised. Even small print runs are possible – with no minimum order quantity. This means you can showcase your brand professionally on the shelves right from the start.
