What Is Important for Pet Food & Treats Packaging?

The right packaging depends on what the product needs to be protected from, how it is filled, how long it will be stored and how customers use it after opening. For pet food & treats, focus on the following:

  • Moisture barrier — Dry and dehydrated pet foods need protection against rehydration during storage.

  • Oxygen barrier — Fat-containing kibble and treats can develop oxidative off-flavours when exposed to oxygen.

  • Durability — Pet food packs often carry heavier, irregular products and need dependable puncture and transport resistance.

  • Resealable closure — ZIP packaging makes daily feeding easier and helps protect the remaining contents.

  • Stable shelf format — Flat-bottom bags offer strong shelf presence and stability for larger packs.

Pet Food & Treats Packaging Size Guide

What Size Pouch Do I Need for Pet food?

Products are normally sold by weight, while flexible packaging is specified by volume. Because bulk density varies from product to product, the same weight can require very different pouch sizes.

As a starting point, extruded dry kibble typically has a bulk density of approximately 0.35–0.45 g/ml. We also recommend leaving sufficient headspace so the pouch can be filled and the zipper or top seal closed comfortably.

Pet food weight Approx. product volume Recommended pouch volume
250 g≈ 620 ml700–800 ml
500 g≈ 1,250 ml1,400–1,600 ml
1 kg≈ 2,500 ml2,800–3,200 ml
2 kg≈ 5,000 ml5,500–6,300 ml
3 kg≈ 7,500 ml8,300–9,400 ml

Important: This pet food pouch size guide is approximate. Cold-pressed pellets are denser than extruded kibble, while freeze-dried treats are far lighter. If you are unsure which size you need, order a sample and test it with your actual product before placing a larger order.

Test the Packaging Before You Order

If you are unsure about size, material or barrier level, order samples and test them with the actual product. A physical filling test is the most reliable way to check capacity, headspace, zipper usability, sealing and overall presentation.

Pet Food & Treats Packaging FAQ

What packaging is best for dog treats?+

Resealable doypacks are practical for dry treats; high-barrier versions are preferable for fatty, freeze-dried or moisture-sensitive products.

What packaging works for dry pet food?+

Flat-bottom bags are useful for larger volumes, while doypacks work well for smaller packs and treats.

Can pet food bags be recyclable?+

Yes. 22pack offers recyclable PE-based options, including EVOH barrier structures.

Why is moisture protection important for dry pet food?+

Dried animal food can reabsorb moisture during storage, so suitable packaging should limit moisture ingress.

Can the pouches be customized with our brand?+

Yes. Depending on the pouch, 22pack offers branding through custom labels, printing and selected decorative finishes such as hot stamping.

How do I choose the right pouch size?+

Use the actual product rather than weight alone. Bulk density varies, so compare the product volume with the pouch specification and leave enough headspace for clean closing and heat sealing.

Find the Right Pet Food & Treats Packaging

Compare pouch formats, barrier structures, finishes and sizes, then test the strongest candidates with your product. Choose the option that balances protection, usability, shelf presentation and your sustainability priorities.
