Why Brands Choose Brand My Bags for Frozen Food Packaging
Six things a frozen food brand can check before it spends a dollar with us.
Below 0°F
Film that stays flexible in the freezerThin poly goes brittle in a freezer and cracks at the seal, which is how air gets in. Our laminated metallized film holds its flexibility well below zero, so the seal made on your line is still the seal on the shelf.
<0.02 g
Freezer burn stopped at the filmFreezer burn is air reaching the food surface — moisture leaves, oxygen arrives, and the product dries and greys. Film under 0.02 g/100in²/day blocks the moisture transfer and under 0.1 cc/100in²/day blocks the oxygen: both halves of the problem, one bag.
Stand-up
Shelf face in the freezer aisleA lay-flat bag slumps in a freezer case and shows the shopper its top edge. A plow-bottom stand-up pouch shows its face, which is where the print is — and the print is what sells a frozen product through the glass.
Oak Park, Michigan
We own the pressesYour bags are printed on our own equipment in Oak Park, Michigan. Most "manufacturers" in this category are brokers reselling an overseas run — there is nobody between your file and our press.
500 bags
500 bags, not 5,000Most converters will not quote a frozen food brand under 5,000 units. Quick Order starts at 500, with no plate fee and no setup fee, so a new SKU costs a few hundred dollars to test instead of a few thousand.
7–10 days
Printed and shipped freeProduction runs 7–10 business days from the day you approve the proof, and shipping anywhere in the US is free — quoted in the price you saw, not added at checkout.

Frozen food packaging questions
What size bag do I need for 1 lb of frozen food?
A 6" × 9" × 3" stand-up pouch — the standard retail freezer bag, and the middle size on this page.
The 4″×6″×2″ suits an 8 oz single serving and the 7″×11″×3.5″ a 2 lb family bag.
Will the bag crack in the freezer?
No — the laminated metallized film stays flexible well below zero, unlike thin poly, which goes brittle and cracks at the seal.
Does the bag prevent freezer burn?
Yes — metallized high-barrier film holds moisture under 0.02 g/100in²/day and oxygen under 0.1 cc/100in²/day, which are the two things that cause freezer burn.
Can I print cooking instructions and nutrition facts?
Yes — the bag prints edge to edge on both sides, so the back panel carries cooking directions, Nutrition Facts and ingredients at a readable size.
What is the minimum order for custom frozen food bags?
500 bags on every size — most converters will not quote a frozen food brand under 5,000 per run.
Every size, from the smallest flat pouch to the 8" × 12" × 4", starts at 500 bags — a tenth of the run most converters ask for, which is what makes testing a new SKU possible without committing to a run you have never sold a unit of.
How long does custom frozen food bags take?
About 7–10 business days from the day you approve your proof, because every bag is printed in-house in Oak Park, Michigan.
