BakPac breaks one million pouch milestone

Independent UK pouch manufacturer BakPac has hit a major production milestone, converting and shipping over 1 million digitally printed stand-up pouches in a single week — a landmark number that the company now expects to become the new normal. 

The achievement follows the installation of two additional Galaxy Packtech pouchmaking machines, bringing BakPac’s fleet to five, alongside two HP Indigo 200K presses – making BakPac the only site in the UK to run this setup. 

‘This is what BakPac was built for,’ said Harry Baker, sales and operations. ‘High-volume, fast-turnaround pouch production — across multiple SKUs, materials, sizes, and sectors — all while delivering the consistency and quality our customers rely on.’ 

With brands in health food, supplements, pet care, and personal care turning to BakPac for both small test runs and large national rollouts, the company has positioned itself as the UK’s go-to digital pouch partner for ambitious, fast-moving brands. 

This level of output is currently being achieved on a single long shift — leaving significant headroom for even further expansion. 

‘What makes this milestone even more exciting is that we’re just getting started,’ added Baker. ‘We’ve got the people, the machines, and the ambition to scale. It’s buzzing here at BakPac.’ 

From mono-material pouches to multi-format production runs, BakPac blends large-scale manufacturing power with the agility and responsiveness of today’s brands demand.
