Format details
Explore the details
A coffee sachet is a small flat pouch made from a web or pre-cut laminate, filled with a measured portion, then closed along its edges. The inside needs enough room for the intended grind while the outer seal bands stay clean. Tear access is usually placed at an edge or notch, and coding space should be planned on the artwork. Sachets can be packed one by one or grouped into a larger carton for hospitality, sampling, and travel programs.
- The flat sachet body holds one coffee portion.
- Edge seals close the filled pouch around the product.
- A tear notch marks the intended opening edge.
- The pouch body is sized to the selected dose.
Practical sequence
From fill to use
Seal
Keep fines out of the edges while the pouch closes.
Serve
Open at the intended notch and empty the portion into the brew setup.
What you can choose
Set dose, sachet width and length, laminate, edge layout, tear notch, artwork, and units per outer pack.
What to try in a sample
Fill with the planned grind, weigh several portions, open by hand, and check seal edges and coding room.
Planning exampleProject planning notes
A portion pack for a repeatable serving
A roaster is preparing a small ground-coffee sachet for hospitality or a sample kit. Define the target dose and grind first, then confirm whether the line uses premade pouches or rollstock. During a representative run, check powder fines near the seal, the usable tear opening, fill consistency, coding space, and the count per outer carton. If two recipes need different doses, label their artwork and settings separately. A hand-filled sachet can help review handling, but it cannot establish automatic-line speed, seal cleanliness, or repeatability on the intended machine. Include line speed, sealing jaw width, coding area, and dose tolerance in the sample brief; a hand-filled sachet may not behave like a production run. Record fill variation and seal cleanliness across several samples.

- Confirm powder-tolerant sealing conditions.
- Validate tear behavior without weakening transport seals.
Fill, opening, and equipment decision
For a coffee sachet, the dose and powder behaviour decide the package more than the front artwork. Confirm the target gram weight, grind, web or pouch dimensions, seal window, tear notch, and whether the line is premade or roll-fed. Run the intended powder through a sample process and inspect whether fines reach the seal area, whether the tear opens in the intended direction, and whether the portion survives secondary packing.
Reserve registration marks and coding space before artwork. Record the tested dose, seal conditions, and outer-carton count with the approved sachet specification.
Buying notes
Before you request a quote
Open the question that matches your next decision.
How do I choose the size?
The listed size or capacity options are 2 g to 30 g and custom doses. Confirm the project dimension or capacity, product dose where relevant, seal area, and filled or assembled dimensions before approving the artwork.
What matters for a ground-coffee sachet?
Dose, web or pouch dimensions, powder behavior, clean seals, and tear direction determine the first sample. Match the seal window and artwork to the filling line rather than treating the sachet as a scaled bag.
What should go into the first brief?
Send the product, target size or dose, current format, artwork status, quantity, destination, and preferred sample or quote route. Start with PET/AL/PE; PET/VMPET/PE and use the checks below to frame the first discussion.
- Match web dimensions to the filling line.
- Confirm powder-tolerant sealing conditions.
Choose with confidence
Is it right for you?
A sachet should deliver the intended portion and open easily. Choose the dose and filling route first, then build the size, tear feature and artwork around that use.
See how samples are reviewedWill it suit my coffee?
Share the coffee or powder, dose and whether the pack will be made from rollstock or supplied premade. Check filling access and clean sealing room with the packing partner. The flat outer size does not establish the working dose.
Can I use my own design?
Keep the coffee identity, preparation information and code area readable at portion size. Confirm the seal zones, registration and tear direction on the agreed dieline before approving print.
What can a sample confirm?
Review filling, sealing and opening with the intended contents. State whether the sample is an empty reference, a prototype or a line-trial material; each answers a different question before the production specification is approved.
In practice
Make every portion easy.
A small pack needs room for filling, reading and opening.
Design around the first tear
Hand a finished sample to someone who has not seen the artwork. Observe where they hold it, where they start the tear and whether they can empty the dose into the intended brewer or vessel. Do not coach the first attempt.
A clear opening cue and a sensible grip area can matter more than another decorative panel. Document the result before deciding where the logo and tear instruction should sit.
Allow for powder behavior
Two coffees with the same nominal dose can settle differently. Share the grind and filling method, then trial the intended product rather than an unrelated powder. Review dust near the seal area and whether the sachet becomes too tight after loading.
Ask the packing partner which dimensions and registration details it needs. A hand-filled sample can confirm basic fit but cannot establish the reliability of a production line.
Plan the outer presentation
Decide how many sachets form one retail unit, how they face inside a box and where the changing lot information belongs. A sampler with different coffees needs a clear identification system on each portion, not only on the outer carton.
Keep the portion count and code locations in the order brief so the bag, box and packing instructions describe the same sellable unit.
