Translate the intended fill, line or shipping use of custom stand up pouch bags into purchase fields. Destination, pack-out and document constraints change the RFQ even when the pouch silhouette looks similar.
Write grind or whole bean, target fill in g, whether a one-way valve is required, and if nitrogen flush is in scope. Aroma-sensitive packs may still need a laminate or metallized structure even when a mono-material face is preferred for recycling reports.
Destination state or postal code, carton count, and whether inner bags travel as eaches or as case packs change freight and document lines. A factory that quotes EXW without naming carton style is not quoting the same delivery scope as a DDP reply.
Food-contact and ink-migration claims attach to a named construction and batch file. FDA 21 CFR or EU 10/2011 language on this site is a reminder to request those files. It is not a site-wide approval.
Two buyers can request custom stand up pouch bags that look alike on a shelf and still need different RFQs. A domestic case pack with a simple UPC label is not the same document set as an export pallet that needs a packing list, carton marking and a food-contact file in the language the receiving warehouse asked for. Write the ship-to postal code even when the factory will quote EXW. Freight can be compared later only if carton style and piece count per carton are already on the page.
Line-trial language belongs on the application, not on a later email. If the pouch must run on an existing jaw, record seal initiation temperature and the current film thickness in μm or mil. An alternative construction that misses that window is a new purchase, not a cost-down of the old one. Nitrogen flush and one-way valves are separate decisions. Leaving them blank lets two factories assume opposite hardware.
Food-contact reviewers should say which file they will actually open: a structure sheet, a migration testing report for that stack, or both. A company ISO 9001 brochure does not replace those files. Continue to inquiry options or send the requirement once fill, line and destination are written.
If two plants quote custom stand up pouch bags without naming fill, valve and destination, the numbers are not comparable.
