Frequently Asked Questions

Answers about minimums, sizes, materials, artwork, production times and shipping for custom mylar bags.

Ordering and pricing

What is the minimum order?

Standard sizes start at 100 bags per design when you order online. Custom sizes and special finishes can be quoted at any quantity.

How is the price worked out?

Each product page shows a price grid by size and quantity. The price per bag falls at 500, 1,000 and 5,000 bags. Custom sizes, finishes and larger runs are priced through the free quote form.

Can I order more than one design?

Yes. Add each design to your cart separately, or send all your designs on the quote form and we will price them together.

Do you charge for plates or setup?

Standard online orders are digitally printed, so there are no plate charges. Large runs may be quoted on plate printing, which lowers the price per bag; we will explain any setup cost in your quote.

Which payment methods do you accept?

You can pay online at checkout with the payment methods shown there. For large quoted orders we can also send an invoice.

Bags and materials

What are mylar bags made of?

Mylar bags are laminated from several films: usually a printable PET outer layer, a metallized PET or aluminum foil barrier and a food-contact sealant layer inside. Together they block light, oxygen and moisture.

Are your bags food safe?

Our pouches use food-contact laminates and are made for dry foods such as coffee, snacks, candy, tea and supplements. Tell us what you are packing and we will recommend the right film and closure.

Do you make child-resistant bags?

Yes. Stand-up pouches and flat exit bags are available with child-resistant zippers designed for compliance with 16 CFR 1700.20. Ask for the zipper’s test documentation with your quote and check the rules for your state and product.

Are the bags smell-proof?

Metallized and foil barrier films with a quality zipper contain odors very well. For the strongest odor control choose a smell-proof bag with a foil barrier.

Which size do I need?

Every product page includes a size and fill guide. Fill amounts depend on how dense your product is, so if you are not sure, tell us what you are packing and we will suggest a size or send a sample.

Do you have eco-friendly options?

Yes. We offer kraft paper bags, compostable pouches and recyclable mono-material pouches.

Artwork and proofs

What file formats do you accept?

Print-ready PDF or AI files are best. We also accept high-resolution PNG and JPG files, and our team can help if you only have a logo.

Will I see a proof before printing?

Yes. Every order includes a free digital proof showing your artwork on the bag dieline. Nothing is printed until you approve it.

Can you design the bag for me?

Our team can place your logo and text on the dieline and suggest layouts. Choose “I need design help” on the quote form.

Production and shipping

How long does production take?

Production takes 7–10 business days after you approve your proof. Rush production may be available; ask on the quote form.

How much is shipping?

Shipping is free on orders over $300. Smaller orders ship at a flat $15 within the US. Shipping options and costs are shown at checkout.

Do you ship outside the US?

Online checkout ships to US addresses. For international orders, contact us for a quote.

Can I return custom bags?

Because every bag is printed to your design, custom orders cannot be returned for change of mind. If there is a defect or a printing error on our side, we will reprint or refund. See our refund and return policy.
