The Pouch Company

The Pouch Company is the only local manufacturer of pouch packaging, the first in CARICOM providing fast, reliable and trustworthy service to manufacturers and small business producers.

The company was established in 2018 by the current management team, offering innovative flexible packaging solutions for local small, medium and large-sized businesses. Already, the company has established a portfolio of clients within local private and developmental sectors.

The company, based in Caroni, Trinidad & Tobago, currently employs a sturdy, full-time staff and aims to ensure the knowledge of pouches and their social and environmental impact is shared. Understanding the importance of the move from rigid to flexible packaging, The Pouch Company vows to provide accessible and valuable products to their customers.

WHAT WE DO

We create high-quality pouch packaging using digital printing ensuring our products are created in accordance with international standards. Our facility is a proud owner of the HP Indigo 6000 ensuring exceptional quality of output with vivid coloring and even variable printing.

To complement our state-of-the-art machinery, The Pouch Company offers a full range of services, including:

• Pre-media – includes die-lines, color matching, and optimization for digital printing. It’s here where special effects are applied, such as the ability to create a unique image for every package printed. It’s also in this step where a print-ready PDF is created, and sent to the press, thus eliminating the need for printing plates.
• Solventless Lamination – cures fast and is more environmentally friendly than alternative processes.
• Multi-format pouch making – includes a variety of stand-up pouch and lay flat pouch formats with optional press to close zippers and hang holes.
• Adoption Consultation – includes a full consultation process for the adoption of flexible packaging into a company’s current production line.

 

WHY WE DO IT

Upon researching and assessing the environment, The Pouch Company saw local manufacturers from small home-made products to million-dollar producers importing pouches. Thus, the company was established in 2018, offering innovative flexible packaging solutions for local small and medium and large-sized businesses. Already, the company has established a portfolio of clients within local private and developmental sectors.

The obvious question is, why are major brands moving and introducing pouch packaging? Benefits such as less waste in landfills and the fact that its packaging contributes less that 4% to the total product weight answer this question easily. This increases logistical efficiency for packaging, storing and shelf placement.

Outside of providing affordable and accessible flexible packaging options, The Pouch Company also seeks to, within the next two years, ensure the knowledge of pouches and their social and environmental impact is shared. Understanding the importance of the move from rigid to flexible packaging, The Pouch Company vows to provide accessible and valuable product to their customers while sharing the knowledge of newer, innovative and ground-breaking solutions.
