Candy Bags: Solutions for Infused Edibles
YPAK candy bags are engineered with precision, guided by material science, compliance regulations, and the unique challenges of infused edibles. From sticky gummies to delicate chocolates, we design and manufacture bags that preserve freshness, ensure safety, and align with evolving cannabis laws and consumer expectations.
With a variety of formats, Mylar, foil, kraft-paper hybrids, PE, and compostables, we apply deep R&D to ensure that every candy bag performs reliably across flavor retention, dosage protection, and shelf readiness.
Using Candy Bags to Enhance Performance
Infused candies pose a unique set of packaging challenges:
●Oils and stickiness that can break seals or compromise film integrity
●Volatile terpenes and flavors that must be retained securely
●Precise dosing and safety, often subject to strict labeling and access rules
●Demand for premium branding, combining form and regulatory function
Our candy bags are built to solve these issues at every level, from materials to closure systems.
Applying High-quality Materials for Candy Bags
YPAK candy bags are manufactured using custom-layered films, tuned for product compatibility and performance. Formats include:
●Mylar multi-layer films: Excellent barrier, UV resistance, smooth for printing
●Foil laminates: Ideal for fat-rich candies like chocolates
●PE-based films: Resealable and recyclable options for sustainability-focused SKUs
●Kraft-paper hybrids: Textured finish with inner liners for aroma and moisture protection
●Compostable films (PLA/PBAT): Great for small single-use candy units
●Cellulose and lacquered paper: Breathable, biodegradable options for dry mints or teas
Each material stack is customized with food-safe, non-reactive adhesives, oil-resistant coatings, and high seal integrity, ensuring performance even under heat or handling stress.
Advanced Film Construction for Candy Bags
Our film structures are engineered for the candy category’s specific challenges. Multi-layer laminates offer moisture resistance, aroma barrier, and puncture protection, with customizable layers for recyclability, compostability, or extended shelf life. We match the right film to your candy’s form, whether it’s chewy, powdery, or coated, for both protection and presentation.
We develop multi-layer barrier structures based on:
●OTR/MVTR targets (oxygen and moisture transmission rates)
●Product interaction (candy oils, fats, terpenes)
●Child-resistance and tamper performance
●Mechanical durability (puncture, tear, flex resistance)
Our standard candy bag construction might include:
●Outer layer (PET, kraft): Brand surface + print compatibility
●Core barrier (EVOH, foil): Aroma and oxidation protection
●Sealant layer (PE, PLA, PBAT): Safe contact and closure control
Candy Bags R&D and Performance Test
Innovation drives our packaging solutions. Our R&D team tests new materials, formats, and features tailored to the unique demands of candy products, from stickiness and sugar migration to temperature resilience. Performance tests include material selection, shelf-life simulation, and Regulatory and compliance testing to ensure your bags stay fresh, functional, and customer-ready.
