1 Pound Mylar Bags Wholesale – Freshness, Strength, and Clean Branding
When your product weighs a full pound, packaging has to work harder. Our 1 pound Mylar bags are built for aroma control, oxygen resistance, and shelf consistency. Brands use them for coffee beans, dry foods, pet treats, supplements, and artisan mixes. The format also matches searches for 16 oz Mylar bags, so your SKU naming stays clear for buyers and marketplaces.
Mylar Bags By Size
Start here if you manage multiple SKUs in one catalog. Explore sizes, heights, and grams-per-bag on the Mylar Bags By Size page to align your 1 lb lines with 1g, 3.5g, 28g, and up. This helps your team standardize labels, scoops, and filling steps across products.
Built for real-world packing rooms
Short runs or big volumes, the 1 lb format is a workhorse. Teams need fast loading, repeatable sealing, and clear space for branding. That’s exactly what this bag style delivers.
What makes the one-pound format reliable
The weight class matters. A pound of dense product puts stress on seams and zippers. We solve that with tough film stacks and precise seals.
Use cases include:
- Coffee roasters dialing in fresh roast cycles
- Dry foods like rice, lentils, nuts, and granola
- Powders and mixes that need strong oxygen barriers
- Pet treats where aroma control is important
The outcome is simple. Less tear risk, tighter aroma control, better shelf shape.
We keep print panels clean so your colors pop and compliance text remains readable at small sizes.

Size and capacity guide
Below is a concise reference for planning fills and choosing clearances without overpacking. Values are typical; density shifts fill heights.
| Bag Footprint | Typical Fill for Dense Foods | Typical Fill for Light Foods | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 x 9 in | 1 lb coffee beans 1 lb rice or sugar |
12–14 oz puffed snacks chips, popcorn |
Compact size ideal for shelves under 12 in height. Best for single-serve or retail display packs. |
| 7 x 10 in | 1 lb grains (wheat, oats) 1 lb nuts (almonds, etc.) |
1 lb lightweight mixes cereal, dried fruits |
Extra headroom allows space for degassing valves, scoop inserts, or resealable zip closures. |
| 8 x 12 in | 1 lb + inserts (coffee with flavor packs) bulkier dry foods |
1 lb bulky blends (granola, muesli, herbal tea) | Extra panel space suitable for wide labels, bilingual nutrition panels, or larger brand graphics. |
Right after choosing a footprint, confirm scoop size and funnel angle with a quick test run. A good goal is a snug, even fill that seals flat without stretching the zipper.
This reference helps teams match one bag across different blends while keeping labels, UPCs, and artwork consistent.
Film and finish options explained
The outer layer sets look and feel; the barrier stack handles oxygen and moisture. You can lock in a clean matte for minimalist brands or a glossy face for high color work. Spot shine can highlight just the logo.
Popular combinations for 16 oz Mylar bags
- Matte black with Spot UV logo pop
- White soft-touch for premium coffee lines
- Gloss clear front with foil back for product visibility
- Kraft-laminated face for a natural retail vibe
Each combination keeps barrier performance steady while changing the exterior mood to fit your line.
Materials and barrier overview
Choose the build that matches your product’s sensitivity and shipping path.
| Build | Oxygen Barrier | Moisture Barrier | Touch and Look | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Foil Laminate | Highest | Highest | Opaque metallic core, smooth and strong | Coffee packaging to preserve aroma, nuts & seeds to prevent rancidity, cocoa powders requiring maximum shelf life |
| Metallized PET | High | High | Subtle reflective metallic sheen, lightweight | Snack mixes, dry fruits, powdered drink mixes, spices needing protection but lighter packaging |
| Clear PET + PE | Medium–High | High | Transparent or semi-clear front with soft plastic touch | Granola bars, baked treats, sample packs, cookies, chips where product visibility is important |
Moving to foil is the fastest way to extend shelf goals for aroma-sensitive products. Clear builds help retail buyers preview texture and color at a glance.
This view lets you align the barrier with your freshness targets without over-engineering cost.
Printing and coating choices
Brand panels should stay crisp after handling, so we tune ink systems and finishing for real shipping conditions. You can highlight limited runs without changing die sizes.
Ways to style Custom 1 Pound Mylar bags
- CMYK full wrap with small batch notes
- One-color economy print with a large brand mark
- Matte body with Spot UV on the logo
- Color-blocked front with clear window reveal
Coatings available include Gloss, Matte, and Spot UV. These finishes support both glare control and wipe-clean handling in back rooms.
Closure and valve options at a glance
Seals and vents matter most on coffee and aroma-forward foods. Here is a quick comparison for daily use.
| Specification | Details | Material Options | Finishing Choices | Add-ons & Features | Usage/Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Zipper | Easy-to-use closure allowing repeated opening and resealing. | Compatible with Mylar, Kraft, and laminated pouches | Gloss, Matte, or Transparent Film | Tear notch for first open, resealable grip | Best for dry goods such as nuts, grains, powders, and pet food. |
| Heavy-Duty Zipper | Designed for dense, heavy, or sharp-edged contents; provides stronger seal with higher resistance | Thick Mylar or reinforced multilayer plastic | Matte or Gloss finish with reinforced edge | Extra-strong grip, double-zipper option | Ideal for pet treats, protein powders, dried fruits, or industrial-use products. |
| One-Way Degassing Valve | Special vent lets CO₂ escape while preventing oxygen entry; preserves freshness of roasted goods | Heat-resistant laminated films and foil-lined Mylar | Matte, Gloss, or Kraft exterior | Valve integrated with pouch; optional branding area | Best suited for freshly roasted coffee, tea blends, and fermented products. |
| Tear Notch + Heat Seal | Provides tamper-evident, retail-ready seal; consumer opens cleanly at the notch. | Kraft paper, Mylar, clear plastic film | Heat-sealable coating with matte or gloss appearance | Branding intact after opening; optional resealable zipper after first tear | Used for retail packaging of snacks, candies, herbal products, and specialty foods. |
Choose the zipper grade that matches product density. For fresh roasts, add a valve and keep the first seal heat-tight to lock in aroma.
This selection keeps your customer experience smooth from first open to last scoop.
Filling, sealing, and labeling tips

Small habits make a big difference. The result is straighter stacks, tighter cases, and fewer returns.
