Just one！but the price will decrease with larger quantities. Why?
Because 1. A larger quantity will reduce the waste in the production process. 2. We can adopt different printing methods depending on your quantity.
We offer two printing options: digital printing and plate printing. Digital printing is ideal for small batches and frequent design updates, while plate printing is best for large volume orders (typically 5000+ pieces).
We’ll recommend the most cost-effective method based on your packaging needs.
At Pouching, our goal is to make customizing flexible packaging as smooth and hassle-free as possible. Just share your artwork and requirements with us, and our team will get in touch quickly to confirm the details.
Don’t worry—our packaging pros are always here to answer any questions or address any concerns you might have along the way.

Advantages of digital printing:
- No minimums
- No plate fees
- Fast turnaround
- Suitable for variable data printing
- Cost-effective for small quantities
Advantages of plate printing:
- Lower cost for large volume production
- Wider material compatibility
- Richer metallic and special effects
- Longer print run durability
Conclusion: If your order quantity is relatively small (normally ≤5000) or if your packaging requires frequent design changes, then the best printing solution is digital printing. If your order quantity is large and there is no need for design changes, then plate printing will save you more costs.

If you’re unsure about the size, we recommend referencing your competitors’ packaging solutions or ordering a sample pouch.
Artwork
We accept PDF (with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi) and Adobe Illustrator (.ai) files, with .ai format preferred.
Yes, we support Pantone colors—not just for plate printing, but also for digital printing. At Pouching, we’ve pioneered a color-matching service that ensures your printed colors closely match Pantone standards.
Yes, you can get dielines by providing your bag design, type, and size.
Please set your file to CMYK, which is the standard color model for professional printing, ensuring accurate and consistent color reproduction.
They are never exactly the same. Digital proofs show up on screens in RGB format, while physical proofs are printed using CMYK colors. Because of these different methods, digital proofs can’t perfectly match the physical ones. Plus, the type of finish and materials can change how the final print looks.
For instance, the same color will look more vibrant and saturated with a glossy finish, but softer and lighter with a matte finish. These differences just can’t be captured by digital proofs.
Converting text to outlines is a smart move to ensure that your text looks the same no matter where it’s viewed or printed.
When you convert text to outlines, you don’t have to worry about whether the right fonts are installed on every computer or device. It eliminates any font-related issues or substitutions that could mess up your design.
Yes, you can make final modifications before the artwork is approved. Once the artwork is approved, your pouch will go into production. At this point, changes may incur additional costs and extend your delivery time.
