Why choose Grounded
Packaging designed around your product
There is no single sustainable material that suits every product or market. Your packaging must protect what is inside, work with your filling and distribution processes, and support claims you can substantiate where you sell.
We do not push one “best” solution. We start with your product, customers and supply chain, then help you compare formats, materials, pricing and available impact data. Together, we can confirm the dimensions, performance requirements, print options and production specification that fit your brief.
Use Blueprint to explore configurations, compare materials, review your design in 3D and download a custom dieline. Our team can help you assess product performance and the evidence behind end-of-life claims for the finished pack.
Formats
Find the right format
Pouches
Stand-up, flat, flat-bottom and other pouch formats for products that need the right combination of shelf presence, protection and filling compatibility. We can assess the right barrier, closure and features for your product and filling method.
Explore pouches →
Mailer bags and poly bags
Custom packaging optimised for eCommerce fulfilment, apparel and product protection. Options include recycled-content poly mailers, compostable mailers and paper-based formats, with different performance and disposal considerations.
Explore mailers and poly bags →
Rollstock
Custom-printed film for automated form-fill-seal lines. The structure needs to match your product, equipment and production volume.

Not sure which size you need?
Our pouch dimension guide is a useful starting point; sampling and testing should confirm the final size.

Material pathways
How to choose a material pathway: compostable, paper recyclable, and soft-plastic recyclable packaging
Your packaging must first protect your product and hold up in your supply chain. A suitable material depends on your product protection required, sustainability goals, and what can realistically happen to the package after use.
Paper recyclable options
Well suited for e-commerce mailers, dry products, or as secondary packaging for goods that have low barrier requirements and where consumers benefit from widespread paper recycling.
Soft-plastic recyclable options
Best for products requiring high moisture/oxygen barriers (pet food, liquids, coffee). Engineered as mono-materials so they can be recycled in soft-plastic recycling streams where infrastructure exists.
Recycled-content options
Mailers, poly bags, and pouches alike can incorporate post-consumer or post-industrial recycled material. Recycled content describes where some of the material came from; recyclability describes a possible route after use. The two attributes can occur together, but neither guarantees the other.
Compostable options
Can be compatible with dry foods and apparel where the customer has access to composting facilities. Moisture, liquids and shelf life can rule out a compostable solution, so we assess your application before making a recommendation.
Print and configure
Print and configure your custom pack
Choose dimensions, printing methods, finishes and features that suit the selected format and material. Depending on the construction, options may include resealable zippers, tear notches, valves, windows, spouts and hang holes. We confirm availability and compatibility for your specification before production.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order quantity for custom packaging at Grounded?
+
It depends on the format, material and printing method. Digitally printed pouches can start at 6,000 units, while rotogravure-printed pouches can start at 10,000 units. Mailers, poly bags and rollstock have different requirements. Share your format and an estimated annual quantity for an accurate minimum and quote.
Can I order several SKUs together?
+
We can plan a range of designs or product variants, but the minimum and production setup for each SKU depend on the format and printing method. Tell us how many SKUs you need and the quantity of each so we can recommend a practical production approach.
Can I get samples before placing an order?
+
Yes. Unprinted material and format samples are available on request, and printed pre-production sample runs can help you test a new design or structure before a commercial order.
How long does custom packaging take to produce?
+
Production typically takes 35–45 days from final artwork approval. The full delivery schedule depends on the format, destination and freight method. We will confirm a project-specific timeline in your quote.
