Flat pouch (3-side seal)
This template calculates the print mask for a flat pouch with a three-side seal. Front and back share one print sheet with a bottom fold. Side and top seams are seal zones; optional additions include a zipper, tear notch, and hanging hole. The drawing is not an approved die-cutting contour for film.

How the shape is constructed
Print sheet height equals twice the pouch height. The bottom fold connects front and back without an additional bottom gusset. Side seals run through both layers; the top seal closes the opening after filling. The zipper sits below the top seal; the tear notch sits in the area above it. The hanging hole is in the top seal.
How it is assembled
Print the film, fold at the bottom fold, and seal the side seams. After filling, seal the top seam; the pouch machine punches the tear notch and hanging hole.
Material and grain direction
Test fit, folding and closure on a sample made from the intended material. Confirm material thickness, grain direction and production steps with your printer.
Compare labels, cup carriers and bottle packaging. Circumference and openings must fit the container. Print mockups of beverage cartons do not demonstrate liquid-tightness.

What to consider for this construction
Top seal
Height of the top seal, sealed after filling; with a hanging hole, at least the hole height plus twice 3 mm.
Zipper
Resealable press-to-close zipper; the zipper band is a seal zone.
Zipper distance
Distance from the zipper center to the top edge; the zipper sits below the top seal and above the bottom fold. Active when the zipper is enabled.
Tear notch
Notch in both side seals for tearing open above the zipper.
Frequently asked questions
How does this template differ from the flat paper bag?
pouch.flat is a film print mask with side seal zones and a top seal. bag.flat instead describes a paper blank with glued side flaps and an optional closure flap. Both have a bottom fold, but their seam areas serve different purposes. Choose the structure based on the intended manufacturing process; the files are not interchangeable production templates.
Can I add a zipper?
Yes. The starting value is off; pouchZipper enables the press-to-close zipper's sealing band. Its distance is set separately and checked against the top seal and bottom area. The tear notch must remain above the zipper. A valid position does not yet confirm a suitable closure type; agree on this selection and sealing it in with the pouch converter.
How much space does a hanging hole need?
The top seal must accommodate at least the hole height plus twice a 3 mm margin. The model also checks hole width between the side seals. No hole is enabled in the starting example. When selecting a hole shape, check the seal and, where applicable, notch or zipper position together. Confirm the allowance with the manufacturer.

Stand-up pouch (Doypack)
The stand-up pouch receives a print mask comprising the front, inserted W-shaped bottom gusset, and back. Side seam, top seam, Doyen corners, and zipper band remain documented as seal zones. Pouch width and height are outside dimensions; the bottom gusset is a separate parameter. The calculated print sheet does not yet confirm standing stability.

Spout pouch
The spout pouch print mask adds a sealed-in spout to the stand-up pouch. Choose the top right corner or the center of the top edge and enter the inside diameter. The spout's boat-shaped flange is part of the seal zones; the drawing documents its position, not confirmed component fit.

Drink pouch
The drink pouch template shows a stand-up bottom print mask with a marked straw puncture point on the front. The starting profile has a wider top seal than the simple stand-up variant. Width, height, bottom gusset, and puncture point are set separately; calculated fill volume is not part of the model.
