One-Side Transparent Pouch
One side on display × one side protected × innovative packaging with style and function

Also called an aluminum foil clear bag, the one-side transparent pouch combines a transparent film on one side with an opaque barrier layer on the other. Consumers can clearly view the contents through the clear side, while the foil, paper, or metallic layer on the back blocks light, moisture, and oxygen to protect the product and elevate visual quality. It embodies modern packaging that blends functionality with aesthetics.
Main Structure and Sealing Method
-
The pouch is made by laminating two films with different properties. A
typical combination pairs transparent PE or CPP with an aluminum
layer, or transparent film with paper. The sides are heat sealed to
form three-side seal, stand-up zipper, or flat-bottom structures.
Traditionally limited to stand-up pouches, Thomson has expanded the
design to flat-bottom formats for greater versatility and display
impact.
Features and Advantages
-
With one transparent side for visibility and one opaque side for
protection, the pouch boosts consumer confidence and purchase intent.
The asymmetrical design stands out on shelves, offering high visual
recognition. It seals tightly against moisture and, when vacuumed,
further extends shelf life.
Common Applications
-
Widely used for products requiring both display and preservation,
including foods like tea, coffee beans, nuts, and dried goods, as well
as supplements, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and electronic parts.
Whether for retail shelves or e-commerce, the design enhances product
value and brand image.
