Oxygen Barrier & Leak Proof Fresh Beer Pouch with Customizable Printing
The Craft Capsule: Fresh Beer Stand-Up Pouch represents a revolution in brew-to-glass freshness. This high-performance, portable vessel challenges traditional bottles and cans, serving as a mobile draft system engineered to preserve the brewer's delicate art of aroma, carbonation, and flavor from filling to final pour.
Core Technology: Advanced Barrier Structures
Structure A: The Oxygen Assassin | PET / AL / PE
12μm PET | 9μm AL Foil | 75μm Specialty PE
- Absolute Oxygen Barrier: OTR <0.001 cc/m²/day—crucial for preventing staling and oxidation
- Total Light Block: 100% UV protection prevents "skunky" flavors from light-struck hops
- CO₂ Retention: Exceptional barrier maintains carbonation levels (2.4-2.7 vols) for 120+ days
- Acidic Environment Optimized: PE layer formulated for beer's pH (4.0-4.5) without flavor scalping
Ideal For: Lagers, pilsners, and beers where crisp, clean flavor preservation is paramount.
Structure B: The Burst-Resistant Guardian | PET / AL / PA / PE
12μm PET | 9μm AL | 15μm Nylon (PA6) | 60μm Reinforced PE
- Pressure Resistance: Withstands up to 4 bar internal pressure (vs 3 bar for standard)
- Flex-Fatigue Defense: Prevents micro-cracks during transport and handling
- Enhanced Aroma Lock: Superior barrier to volatile hop aromatics (myrcene, humulene)
- Chill-to-Impact Strength: Maintains integrity from freezing temperatures to 40°C ambient
Ideal For: Highly carbonated beers (saisons, hefeweizens), hop-forward IPAs, and barrel-aged strong ales.
