Custom Pouches & Packaging for Pet Products

Pet food and treat packaging must deliver more than visual appeal — it needs to protect freshness, preserve nutritional value, and withstand the rigors of shipping, shelving, and handling. Whether you’re packaging dry kibble, soft chews, freeze-dried treats, or supplements, Red Dot’s custom-engineered solutions are designed to meet the high-barrier demands of the pet market. We consider everything from oxygen sensitivity and oil content to reseal needs and label compliance. Red Dot works as an extension of your team, tailoring each pouch structure to suit your product's chemistry, usage behavior, and shelf environment — so pet parents trust what’s inside.

Packaging Formats Tailored for Pet Products

Red Dot offers a wide range of pouch types and film structures specifically optimized for the pet care industry:

  • Stand-Up Pouches — Ideal for shelf display and resealable for pet owner convenience
  • Flat Bottom Bags — Durable and stable, with premium shelf presence for larger or heavier products
  • 2- or 3-Seal Pouches — Efficient for single-use servings, samples, and compact treats
  • Bottom Load or Fin Seal Pouches — Great for flow-wrap automation and high-volume runs
  • Tamper-Evident Formats — Maintain product safety and regulatory compliance

Our films can be layered with moisture and oxygen barriers, grease resistance, and puncture strength — using PET, MET-PET, nylon, foil, and recyclable or compostable materials based on your goals.

Features like zipper closures, degassing valves, or hang holes are integrated to suit your specific product and retail environment.

Print & Finish Options for Pet Products

In the pet aisle, shelf competition is fierce — bold visuals, tactile finishes, and premium print quality play a major role in purchasing decisions. Red Dot helps you stand out while staying compliant and true to your brand identity.

We offer:

  • Digital Printing — Perfect for short runs, seasonal SKUs, or breed-specific products
  • Flexographic Printing — Ideal for medium-volume runs requiring consistent color fidelity
  • Rotogravure Printing — High-definition detail for large-scale production with intricate artwork

Finish options include:

  • Gloss or Matte
  • Soft Touch Matte for a premium feel
  • Dual Finishes with contrast (e.g., gloss + spot matte)
  • Custom foil stamping or metallic inks for visual impact
  • Product windows or custom die cuts for visibility and interaction
