The origin of coffee
Coffee is native to the tropics of northern and central Africa and has been cultivated for more than 2,000 years. The main areas where coffee is grown are Brazil and Colombia in Latin , Ivory Coast and Madagascar in Africa, Indonesia and Vietnam in Asia. According to statistics, coffee is grown in 76 countries around the world.
The world's first coffee tree was found in the Horn of Africa. The local indigenous tribe often grinds the fruit of coffee and kneads it with animal fat to make many balls. The native tribes treated the coffee balls as a precious food for the soldiers who were about to go on the war.
Around the world, more people are drinking coffee. The resulting“Coffee culture” fills every moment of life. Whether at home, or in the office, or a variety of social occasions, people are drinking coffee, it is increasingly associated with fashion, modern life. As coffee is becoming more and more popular, people is gradually focusing on packaging bags requirements. We now could see many high-standard coffee packaging pouches in the market.
Main types of packaging on the market
Top Pack Packaging Co., Ltd is specializing in making multiple coffee bags with high quality and competitive price for more than ten years. Our company is good at making four side seal bag, side seal gusset bag, back seal gusset bag, etc. And there are some necessary accessory parts like tin tie, air valve, easy tear zipper.
Most supplier would like to choose gusset bag to pack coffee powder or coffee beans. And now you may ask: what is gusset bags? Well, this kind of bags’ two sides on the side are folded into the bag body to form a bag. The bag with an oval opening is folded into a rectangle with an opening. After folding, the two sides of the bag are like wind vent leaves, but it is also closed, so the bag will be named the gusset bag.
After improvement, gusset bag has many advantages, such as the opening of the bag is a rectangular shape. If the bags is fully packed of the products, that’s really like a box, which meet the beauty packaging standards. And the following advantage is followed by the retention of the original benefits of flat bottom bags: they can be printed, and the print content is much richer than flat bottom bags. At the same time, we can print the bag body dyed red, blue, black, green, yellow and so on. And then printed on top of a variety of exquisite patterns, for example, color drawings, celebrity photos, company names, company logos, company addresses, phone numbers, and main products could all be printed on it. One could even make a hole in the opening of the plastic bag, and a coffee gusset bag with handle is finished in this way!
There is an important component in the coffee bag, which is one-way exhaust valve. One-way exhaust valve packaging bag is now the main coffee packaging bags’ type for its good performance. Roasted coffee could be placed in a gusset bag with special one-way exhaust valve. This exhaust valve allows gas to go out, but not to come in. No separate storage stage is required, but there is a slight loss of aroma due to a degassing process. It prevents the formation of putrid flavors, but also could help to reduce the loss of aroma.
Points to noted of the coffee packaging
According to the protection requirements of the packaged food, the packaging materials with excellent protection function are selected scientifically, and then the reasonable structure design and packaging decoration design are carried out. The use of advanced packaging technology need to achieve the protection of food and extend the shelf-life of the goal. Different food chemical composition, physical and chemical properties are different, so different food packaging of the protective requirements are different.
Coffee is a powdered, dry substance that is sensitive to moisture. The minimum requirements are: high moisture resistance-to keep the product dry-and chemical stability-to prevent any chemical reaction with the food inside to ensure food safety. From the perspective of environmental protection, coffee products packaging and printing plans should select resource-saving, non-toxic gas, and eco-friendly packaging materials that can automatically decomposed back to nature.
