Pillow Bags
Pillow Bags, also called Back Seal Pouches or T-Seal Pouches, are the most economical flexible packaging. As the name suggests, these bags are pillow-shaped and can lie flat on a surface. They are sealed on one side, filled through the other, and with a fin-seal or lap-seal extending throughout the length of the back panel.
The pillow-like design offers simplicity and convenience. It’s simple to produce and allows for efficient filling and sealing. It is lightweight, takes up little space, easy to store and keep fresh. Pillow bags are ideal for retail display and easy transport, making manufacturers more cost-effective.

Material Option Differences
Get QuotePillow bags may seem simple, but their material structure is carefully designed to meet different functional needs. With so many choices available, understanding these points will help you choose the right material for your product:
- Almostall pillow bags are multi-layer laminates – No single material can provide all necessary properties (e.g., printability, barrier protection, and sealing).
- It has aprinting, barrier and heat seal layer with different functions;
- The printing and heat seal layer is only one, the barrier layer has two or more;
- A wide range of films are available,including clear, white, silver or kraft color, depending on your preference;
- Film color does not affect barrier properties;
- Functional requirements directly influence material choosingand property prioritization (e.g., Barrier needs, sustainability goals, cost vs. performance).

Types of Pillow Bags
Fin Seal: A fin seal seals the inside of the bag material to the inside of the bag material. Inner layers are sealed, which creates a visible fin-like seam along the back of the package. This keeps the products fresh and stable on the shelf. It is ideal for lightweight, dry products (chips, sweets).
Lap Seal: The two edges of the film overlap and are sealed together, resulting in a smoother, flatter edge. For this seal to work, both surfaces that are fused together must be made of a thermoplastic material. It is better for heavy or liquid products (powders, sauces) that require durability and preservation.
Lap seals offer stronger seals for challenging applications, while fin seals prioritize cost and simplicity.
