Wet Food Pouches

Pouches Built for Everything That Pours

Wet food has taken shelf space from cans for one simple reason: a pouch is lighter, easier to open, and easier to portion. We build wet food pouches for stews, pates, gravies, broths, and liquid supplements.

  • Spouted and flat single-serve builds
  • Retort-ready structures
  • Food-safe, direct-contact materials

Why Pouches Took Over Wet Food

A can is heavy, expensive to ship, and awkward to open and store once it is. A pouch ships flat until it is filled, weighs almost nothing by comparison, tears open without a tool, and portions cleanly into a bowl. For the pet owner it is simply easier, and for a brand it is usually cheaper to ship and far better to print on. The engineering catch is that a pouch holding liquid has to survive a filling and sterilization process that a dry bag never faces, which is where the structure matters.

Formats for Wet and Liquid

What the food does in the bowl decides the shape of the pouch.

Built to Hold Liquid and Survive Processing

Wet food asks different questions of a pouch than kibble does. It is heavier for its size, it is wet against the seal, and most wet recipes are sterilized in the pack after filling.
