Note :
(1) While the above are indicative types of laminates and co-extruded films
that are recommended, any other flexible laminates or co-extruded films comparable to the barrier and
strength properties of above type of laminates or co-extruded films would also be acceptable.

b) Thickness tolerance (Upper Level)

A higher specification (positive tolerance) always could be acceptable. However, it should not lead to
high rigidity, flex crack, reduced bond strength or seal strength. A higher specification may also add to
the cost.
(3) The laminate / co-extruded film could be transparent/opaque/coloured
as per the requirement of the importer.
(4) All the materials used shall be of food grade quality and pass the
prescribed Indian Standards / Standards if any, and, as demanded by
the importing countries.
(5) Labelling and printing requirements shall conform to as prescribed by
the importing country.
(6) General requirements :
a) The pouches shall be clean and without specs.
b) The pouches shall be 3 sides or 4 sides sealed.
c) The seal width shall be minimum 5 mm, particularly the top seal
(for filled pouches).
d) The pouches shall be either reverse or surface printed. In the case of
surface print, the print shall be compatible with the product and shall
not lift or smudge . The print shall be legible and easy to read.
e) The pouch shall not fail either on the body or along the seals when
subjected to normal drop tests.
f) All the pouches should be flushed with nitrogen gas at the time of
sealing to retain the freshness of the product.
