Clear Biodegradable Standup Eco Pouches ™
Our 70 Micron Compostable, Biodegradable and Ocean-Friendly Clear Standup Pouches / Doy Packs
Due to the huge success of our Eco Pouch range of biodegradable vacuum pouches, we were asked to produce a range of clear biodegradable standup pouches. Eco Standup Pouches – are a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic-based standup pouches and doy packs.
We experimented with a vast number of substrate thicknesses before the correct balance between usability and environmental suitability was found. The final product is a clear, biodegradable standup pouch that has the qualities required of a regular standup pouch (burst pressure, clarity, strength, and durability), and a standup pouch that is friendlier to our environment.
All our biodegradable vacuum packing products are manufactured on-site in our purpose-built UK factory under AA accredited BRCGS conditions.

Compostable Credentials
Standup Eco Pouches have been independently tested and accredited to prove they breakdown at set composting conditions and are checked for eco-toxicity to ensure that they have no negative impact on the composting environment.
What can our Biodegradable Standup Eco Pouch be used for?
Standup Eco Pouches have a broad range of applications within both the food and non-food industries; they are suitable for the packaging of:
- – Powders and Granules such as coffee, tea, sugar and salts
- – Snacks such as crisps, popcorn, nuts and confectionery
- – Cosmetics
- – Human Foodstuffs
- – Pet Foods
- – Fishing Baits
The bio-polymer sealing surface is approved for food contact, European Directive EC2002/72, and contains no intentionally added Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) in its construction.
Due to the biodegradable properties, it is advised that Eco Pouch is not used for the storage of liquids
Biodegradable and Compostable
Standup Eco Pouches are a biodegradable packaging solution that breaks down, under specific composting conditions, back into water, carbon dioxide (CO2) and biomass.
Made from a range of natural products, including paper, eucalyptus fibre, cassava and corn starch; Eco Pouch is ideally suited to the vacuum packing of goods up to 1kg in weight.
Home Composting – takes less than 26 weeks at ambient temperature (<30ºC).
Industrial Composting – takes less than 12 weeks at 60ºC.
Ocean Friendly
Prevention of packaging materials entering our marine environments should always be a priority. However, should Standup Eco Pouches find their way into the seas or rivers, they offer a more eco-friendly solution to petrochemical based packaging.
Standup Eco Pouches have returned encouraging results when exposed to marine environments; typically reducing to granular levels within 24 weeks of immersion and exposure to microbes, water and oxygen.
Standup Eco Pouches will dissolve into water, carbon dioxide (CO2) and biomass without eco-toxicity.
