Gummy pouch
Matte barrier laminate, resealable zipper500 minimum · 8 to 10 business daysA gummy pouch is a stand-up or flat-bottom pouch built to hold soft candy or gummies with a resealable zipper so the product doesn't dry out or stick together between openings, with a standard zipper or a child-resistant zipper on request. We produce them on a matte barrier laminate from 500 units, ready in about 8 to 10 business days after proof.
When to choose it, and when not to
Choose a gummy pouch for a candy, vitamin, supplement, or CBD gummy brand that needs a resealable package customers open and close repeatedly, especially if the product can dry out or clump once exposed to air.
Choose a folding carton with an inner bag instead if your gummies ship as a one-time gift item rather than a resealable everyday product, since a rigid carton photographs better on a retail shelf than a pouch does. Choose a child resistant mylar bag for THC, CBD or hemp edibles sold where the state requires certified child-resistant packaging, since that bag is built around a certified CR zipper from 200 units.

Questions people ask
Do you offer child-resistant zippers for THC or CBD gummies?
A child-resistant zipper is available on request, and the test documentation for the exact zipper and film comes with the quote. If your state requires certified child-resistant packaging, start with our child resistant mylar bag, which is built around a certified CR zipper from 200 units. Requirements vary, so tell us which state you are packaging for. This is packaging guidance, not legal advice.
Will the zipper actually reseal cleanly after repeated opening?
Yes, the zipper is rated for regular daily opening and closing over the shelf life of the product. It's the same style used across most gummy and candy pouches on the market.
Can you match a specific fill weight to a pouch size?
Send us your fill weight and gummy density and we'll recommend a pouch size that fills correctly without excess headspace or an overstuffed seal.
Is the film opaque or can we add a clear window?
Standard is a matte opaque film. A clear window strip is available if you want the gummies visible, so tell us your preference when you request a quote.
Is the minimum different with a child-resistant zipper?
No. The gummy pouch starts at 500 units with either zipper. If you need a smaller certified run, the child resistant mylar bag starts at 200 units.
Can you print nutritional or compliance panels on the back?
Yes, send us your required panel text and we'll lay it out on the back panel alongside your brand graphics.
Gummy pouch or child resistant mylar bag: which should I choose?
Choose the gummy pouch for candy, vitamin or supplement gummies, where a resealable matte stand-up pouch is the job and child resistance is not required; it starts at 500 units in 8 to 10 business days after proof. Choose the child resistant mylar bag for THC, CBD or hemp edibles sold where the state requires child-resistant packaging: it is built around a certified CR zipper tested to 16 CFR 1700, with the test documentation available on request, it reserves panel space for state warnings, and it starts at 200 units in 10 to 14 business days after proof. This is packaging guidance, not legal advice.
