500g Recyclable Black Matt Flat Bottom Bag with Zip Lock [FB5] (100 per pack)

This pouch is designed to hold approximately 500g of coffee beans. Other products may occupy more or less space depending on their density, shape and particle size. We recommend testing a sample with your own product before ordering in volume.

For guidance on pouch size, see our size chart, which suggests suitable bag sizes using examples including pick-and-mix sweets, protein powder and sugar or salt. This provides a useful starting point for comparing products with different densities and forms.

The pouch measures 150mm(W) x 260mm(H) + 90mm(G), Width x Height + Total Bottom Gusset.

A flat bottom pouch, sometimes called a box pouch, has five panels: a front, a back, two expandable side gussets and an expandable flat base. When filled it sits squarely and directly on the shelf and holds a structured, box-like shape.

A doy-style stand up pouch has a curved bottom gusset that opens out so it can stand, and two main panels. A flat bottom pouch has a genuinely flat base and expandable side gussets, so it sits directly on the shelf, holds its shape better when filled and gives you five panels for labels and information. If you prefer the doy style, view our Stand Up Pouches.

Yes. The side gussets are useful for ingredients, serving or usage guidance, batch details and barcodes, keeping the front panel clear for your brand. The side panels are narrower and fold when the pouch is empty, so please test label placement on a filled sample.

Yes, the whole pouch including the resealable zip. It is a mono-material structure, MDOPE / EVOH-PE, with no metallised or aluminium layer, so it can be recycled as a polyethylene film.

Please note it is not currently widely collected at kerbside. It should be taken to a soft plastics or carrier bag collection point, which you will usually find at larger supermarkets.

Our conventional pouches are laminates of different plastics, usually including a metallised VMPET layer, and those layers cannot be separated for recycling. This pouch is built entirely from polyethylene-based layers — MDOPE with an EVOH-PE barrier — so it can be processed as a single material stream.

It conceals the contents from view, but it is not completely opaque. Recyclable pouches contain no metallic barrier layer such as VMPET, which is what makes them recyclable, and it is that metallic layer that provides a light barrier in our conventional pouches. If light protection matters for your product, please validate shelf life with your own product, or view our Black Matt, White Matt, or Kraft Paper Flat Bottom Pouches which offer a light barrier but are not recyclable.

No. It is recyclable, but it is neither compostable nor biodegradable. Please do not describe or label it as compostable, biodegradable or home compostable.

The pouch is designed to be heat sealed above the zip closure. Seal settings and results depend on your equipment, product, temperature, dwell time, pressure and production conditions. Please test the pouch with your product before commercial use.

Food-contact suitability must be confirmed for the exact pouch construction and your intended application. Please request the relevant technical specification and, where applicable, food-contact documentation before ordering or using the pouch.

No general hot-fill or liquid-product claim is made for this pouch. Please contact Rightpak before using it with hot, warm, wet, liquid, acidic, oily or other specialist products.

Products are sold in multiples of 100 pouches and may be supplied in more than one inner bag or carton for safe handling and delivery.

Yes. The minimum order quantity for ready-made stock pouches is 100 pouches, excluding fully customised pouches.

Stock pouches are sold in multiples of 100, so you can order 100, 200, 300, 400 pouches and above. Fully customised pouches are subject to separate minimum order quantities.

Bulk-buy discounts apply when you order larger quantities of the same product and SKU. Different products, sizes, colours or formats cannot be combined to qualify for a quantity discount.

Yes. The pouch includes a resealable zip-lock closure to support convenient reclosure between uses. Please validate its performance with your own filled product and expected use conditions before commercial use.

We would advise against it, and we do not offer it. Applying ink and heat to a finished pouch can affect the inner food-contact layer and risks migration, so the pouch may no longer be suitable for food use. Once a pouch has been over-printed after manufacture, it can no longer be relied upon as suitable for food contact, and our technical and food-contact documentation no longer applies to it.

Custom printed pouches work differently. The design is printed as part of the manufacturing process, before the pouch is laminated and formed, so the print is sealed within the structure, and the food-contact layer is unaffected. Get In Touch with us discuss custom printed pouches or Get a Quote.

Stock pouches are ready-made, held in stock and supplied unprinted, so you add your own labels. Minimum order quantity is 100 pouches.

Custom printed pouches are manufactured to order with your design printed into the pouch during production, rather than applied afterwards. You choose the size, material, finish and features, and the print covers the full pouch. Minimum order quantities and lead times apply, and we will guide you through artwork requirements.

If you would like your branding on a stock pouch in the meantime, labels are the right route, and many of our customers start there before moving to custom printed pouches as volumes grow.

Relevant documents may be available for approved business customers. Request access before ordering or using the pouch where your application requires food-contact, technical, regulatory or quality approval.
