Gravure printing requires the payment of cylinder charges and is suitable for high volume production. Digital printing supports small batches and fast production.
Bag Type

In addition to roll films, other bag types are pre-made bags, and roll films need to be used with automatic packaging machine.

Special Surface Finishes

Freshly roasted coffee beans will produce a large amount of gas (mainly carbon dioxide), which will not only affect the quality of the coffee beans, but also make the bag swell and create the risk of rupture. One-way valve can ensure the effective discharge of gas from the coffee bag without affecting the quality of coffee beans. The one-way valves used for packaging coffee beans and grind coffee are different.
