Engineered Features That Make Chips Bags Work Harder
Chips packaging has to do more than just look good. It needs to keep snack chips crunchy, survive filling and transport, and still feel great in the consumer’s hand. Our films and laminations are engineered for chips packaging, combining barrier performance, strong seals, and consumer-friendly details that work on real production lines.
High-Barrier Protection for Crunchy Chips
Multi-layer films help control oxygen and moisture so potato chips, kettle chips, and puffed snacks stay crisp from line to shelf.
Strong Seals and Puncture Resistance
Optimized seal layers and durable laminations help protect chips packaging against pinholes, drop tests, and tight case packing during distribution.
FFS-Ready and Line Friendly
Film structures are designed for VFFS and HFFS equipment, with smooth running, consistent sealing windows, and predictable performance for high-speed snack lines.
Consumer-Friendly Closures and Finishes
Options like resealable zippers, laser or notch tear-open features, rounded corners, and gloss or matte finishes make chip bags easier to open, reclose, and enjoy.
Sustainable Choices for Chips Packaging
Chips packaging has to balance product protection with smarter material use. We help snack brands move toward more sustainable choices by offering recycle-ready film structures, downgauged materials, and paper or compostable options—without sacrificing shelf impact or crunch.
Recycle-Ready Film Structures
Mono-material PE structures and recycle-friendly laminations give your chips packaging a clearer path into existing plastic recycling streams where local infrastructure allows.
Use Less Material, Keep the Protection
Optimized film thickness, gussets, and bag dimensions help reduce plastic per bag while maintaining the barrier performance chips need to stay crispy.
Paper and Compostable Options
For specific projects, paper-based and compostable chip bags can support brand stories around natural ingredients and lower-impact packaging.
How Snack Brands Use Our Chips Packaging
Snack teams use chips packaging in different ways depending on their channel and growth stage. Here are three common scenarios where custom chip bags and rollstock help brands move faster, look better on shelf, and keep snacks protected.
Multi-SKU Flavor Launches
A snack brand wants to launch several new chip flavors without overcommitting to inventory. With digitally printed chips packaging, they can run multiple SKUs in one job, keep MOQs manageable, and test new flavors in market before scaling up.
Upgrading to Shelf-Ready Chip Bags
A growing brand moves from basic pillow packs to stand-up chip bags with zippers. High-barrier films, better graphics, and resealable closures give their chips packaging a more premium feel and help win space in crowded snack aisles.
High-Volume FFS Pillow Packs
A high-volume snack producer needs reliable rollstock for VFFS lines. Consistent film structures, sealing performance, and print quality keep chips packaging running smoothly on the line while controlling cost per bag.

How do you price potato chips packaging?

Can we get samples or test your chips packaging on our line before placing a full order?
In most cases, we can provide material samples or a smaller test run so you can check how the chips packaging behaves on your filling equipment and in real distribution. Let us know your machine type and typical settings when you request this.
What do you need from us to start a chips packaging project or quote?
To prepare a quote, we’ll ask for your preferred format and size, estimated order quantities or monthly usage, target markets, and any special requirements such as finishes or sustainability goals. For production, we’ll also need print-ready artwork files and will share dielines for your designer.
Can you help with artwork and dielines for chips packaging, or do we need finished designs?
We provide dielines and basic artwork guidance for all chips packaging formats. If you already have a designer, they can work directly from our dielines. If you need more support, we can point you toward design resources that understand flexible packaging.
