RECYCLABLE

PE- and PP-family Structures

Produced across stand-up, flat-bottom and side-gusset coffee bags. Selection depends on barrier, conversion, printing, valves and closures, plus collection, sorting and recycling conditions in the target market.

The complete bag—including films, valve, zipper, inks and finishes—must be assessed for the intended recycling route; a material-family description is not a universal acceptance claim.

PE family: MDOPE / PE and PE / MDOPE. PP family: MOPP / VMOPP / CPP and MATOPP / PMP822 / CPP.

COMPOSTABLE

PLA-based Structures

Produced in stand-up and flat-bottom coffee bag formats with selected valve-only or valve-and-zipper configurations. The complete specification and supporting documentation determine the available direction.

Industrial and home composting are different claim and processing conditions. The finished package needs applicable certification or verification, and the intended facilities must be available in the destination market.

CUSTOM OPTIONS

Shared Custom Coffee Bag Capabilities

Bag Formats & Sizes

Recyclable projects include stand-up, flat-bottom and side-gusset bags; current compostable projects include stand-up and flat-bottom bags. Dimensions remain structure-specific.

Printing & Surface Finishes

Digital and gravure printing are represented in recyclable work, while current compostable examples use gravure. Any finish is reviewed with the selected structure and claim direction.

Valves & Closures

Selected structures in either direction can use valve-only or valve-and-zipper configurations after the complete package is checked.

Complete-package Matching

Recyclable bags are checked against the target recycling route; compostable bags require supporting documentation for the films, components and intended composting conditions.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Sustainable Coffee Bag FAQs

Recyclable directions keep the main flexible layers within a PE or PP family and depend on the target market's collection, sorting and recycling system. Compostable directions use documented structures such as PLA-based combinations and require the complete bag and intended composting conditions to support the claim.
