Why Brands Choose Brand My Bags for Tobacco Packaging
Six things a tobacco brand can check before it spends a dollar with us.
<0.02 g
Holds the humidity the leaf was cased toTobacco that dries out crumbles and burns hot; tobacco that takes on moisture molds. Metallized film under 0.02 g/100in²/day holds whatever moisture content the product left the blender at, in both directions.
ASTM D3475
Child-resistant, certifiedA child-resistant zipper certified to ASTM D3475-20 and CPSC 16 CFR 1700.20 is available on every size here, chosen per order. Where a state or channel requires it, the closure is already on the bag; where it doesn't, you are not paying for it.
Opaque
Nothing visible, nothing fadedThe metallized layer is fully opaque — no window, no show-through. That protects the leaf from UV, and it means the contents are not on display anywhere a display would be a problem.
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 tobacco 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.

Tobacco packaging questions
Can I get a child-resistant tobacco pouch?
Yes — a child-resistant zipper certified to ASTM D3475-20 and CPSC 16 CFR 1700.20 is an optional, quoted add-on on every size on this page.
It is selected per order on the order step, so a product that requires it and one that doesn't can run on the same bag without a separate quote.
Will the bag keep pipe tobacco from drying out?
Yes — metallized high-barrier film holds moisture under 0.02 g/100in²/day, so the leaf stays at the humidity it was packed at rather than drying to the room.
Is there room for required warning statements?
Yes — the bag prints edge to edge on both sides, so the panel space is there for whatever warnings, disclosures or stamps your product and market require.
Which statements apply is your compliance call; we print what you send.
Can I get a window on a tobacco bag?
No — this page is opaque film only. Tobacco is one of the categories where a window works against both the product (UV) and where it is sold.
What is the minimum order for custom tobacco pouches?
500 bags on every size — most converters will not quote a tobacco 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 tobacco pouches take?
About 7–10 business days from the day you approve your proof, because every bag is printed in-house in Oak Park, Michigan.
