Designing Your Pouch With Two Ways to Create

Now for the fun part — bring your design to life! Our tool offers two ways:

1. Uploading Existing Designs

Upload a high-resolution PDF in CMYK for accurate colour and sharp print.

Why CMYK? It’s the print standard and reflects how colours will appear on the pouch.

2. Creating Designs from Scratch

Use the built-in design area, or download Illustrator templates to fit the printable area perfectly.

Preview lets you rotate the pouch, check artwork wrap, verify placement, and adjust in real time before print.

Tips for Great Pouch Design

  • Colour Matters: Use CMYK for accurate printing. Bold, contrasting colours often pop.
  • Text Placement: Keep key info readable where it’ll be seen.
  • Brand It: Consistent logo/brand elements aid recognition.
  • Keep It Simple: Clean layouts look premium.
  • Follow the Rules: Include any required legal info.
