Quad Seal Bag

A quad seal bag or quad seal pouch — also referred to as a four-corner block bottom bag — is a type of flexible packaging known for exceptional strength and stability. It is designed with four side seals, which provide reinforcement and durability, making it suitable for packaging heavy or bulky products. 

Quad seal pouches are commonly used for packaging a wide range of products, including coffee, snacks, pet food, frozen foods, and more. The bag’s unique construction gives it a square or box-like shape, allowing it to stand upright on store shelves, making it an excellent choice for retail displays. 

With its robust design and customizable printing options, the quad seal pouch offers an eye-catching and practical packaging solution for various industries. The main feature of this bag is that it is formed in a rectangular shape. The 4 vertical edges of this bag are sealed allowing the bag to sit upright on the shelf. Sealed vertical edges do not allow the bag to balloon from the middle and the panels of the bag after filling stay flat compared to a Block Bottom Bag. This allows for better shelf impact and display of brand messaging. The bottom of the bag is side-gusseted and sealed. The bag forms a rectangular block shape at the bottom when filled with high-density products.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quad seal bags are specifically designed for dry products such as coffee, snacks, pet food, frozen foods, and powdered products. Their four-sided seal structure provides excellent stability, preventing ballooning while keeping the panels flat for better shelf impact and branding.

While these pouches are ideal for high-density dry goods, they are not typically suited for liquid packaging. Their sealed vertical edges and gusseted bottom enhance stacking efficiency and structural integrity, making them a great choice for bulkier or heavier dry products.

For liquid or semi-liquid products, alternative flexible packaging solutions like spouted pouches may be more suitable. These offer secure sealing, better weight distribution, and convenient dispensing options.

Whether you need quad seal pouches for dry goods or a specialized option for liquids, we can help you choose the perfect packaging solution. Contact us today!
