Why Brands Choose Brand My Bags for Spices Packaging
Six things a spices brand can check before it spends a dollar with us.
3 enemies
Moisture, oxygen and light — all three blockedA ground spice fails three ways: moisture clumps it, oxygen degrades the essential oils that carry the flavor, and light fades the colour. Metallized film handles all three at once — under 0.02 g/100in²/day moisture, under 0.1 cc/100in²/day oxygen, and fully opaque.
25%
Aroma that stays in the bagThe compounds that make cumin smell like cumin are volatile — they walk straight through permeable packaging, and ground spices can lose up to a quarter of their flavor within three months in the wrong bag. The multi-layer film is an aroma barrier in both directions.
Stand-up
Built for the rack and the market tableA rub sells off a spice rack, a farmers-market table and a butcher's counter. The plow-bottom pouch stands full-faced on all three, and the resealable zipper is what makes a 1 lb pitmaster bag practical instead of a jar.
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 spice 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.

Spice packaging questions
What size bag do I need for 8 oz of BBQ rub?
A 5" × 8" × 2.5" stand-up pouch — the standard retail rub bag, priced on this page.
The 4″×6″×2″ suits a 4 oz shaker-replacement bag, the 6″×9″×3″ a 1 lb pitmaster or bulk bag, and the 3″×7″ flat pouch a 1 oz sample pack.
Will the bag keep spices from clumping?
Yes — metallized high-barrier film holds moisture under 0.02 g/100in²/day, which is what keeps ground spice and salt-based rubs from pulling in humidity and caking.
Does the bag hold the aroma in?
Yes — the multi-layer metallized film is an aroma barrier, so the volatile compounds that carry a spice's flavor stay in the bag instead of escaping through it.
Can I print the ingredient list and net weight?
Yes — the bag prints edge to edge on both sides, so the back panel carries ingredients, net weight and any allergen statement at a readable size.
What is the minimum order for custom spice bags?
500 bags on every size — most converters will not quote a spice 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 spice 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.
