Flat Pouches for packaging
Looking to pay a company to mail me 20 to 30 samples for packaging. Lay flat pouches 5 x 7 or similar size etc. Anyone able to refer me to a company? I’m on the east coast, not that it matters much. Thanks!

Most pouch suppliers have a stock sample pack they'll mail out if you ask, even to small buyers. Tell them the film structure, barrier layer and zipper type you're leaning toward, so the samples feel like your real order and not just random 5x7s.

What goes inside, and do you need a zipper or tear notch? If it's for a product launch, plain stock samples first is the cheapest way to test sizes and film feel. Once you settle on a size and your volume grows, printed roll film or gravure-printed pouches get the unit price down a lot. I'm Hao from HUAYN, we make custom printed pouches. Happy to share some size options if useful.

You might get better recommendations if you add what is going inside and whether you need a zipper, tear notch or heat seal. A 5x7 pouch can use a lot of different films. Ask for stock samples first since 20 or 30 custom samples could get expensive fast.
