Packaging Liquids in Bottles
One of the options available for packaging liquid products is a bottle. There are a variety of goods packaged in bottles such as soda, bottled water, beer, and wine. When determining if packaging your product in a bottle is the best fit for you it is important to consider the contents of your package as well as the placement of the label.

The type of label you choose for your bottle will depend upon the information you want to communicate such as your branding, nutrition information, ingredients, coupons, and more.
Packaging Liquids in Pouches
Another option for packaging your liquid products is a pouch. Stand-up pouches are a popular method for holding liquid contents due to their flexibility, ease of use, and the ability to keep substances fresh. These pouches can accommodate products such as soups, juices, and laundry detergent.

Packaging Liquids in Cartons
Milk and juice are two items that are often stored in traditional cartons. In addition to large, full-size cartons, there has also been an emergence of products being packaged in smaller cartons. These products include broth, juice boxes, and soup.

Offering packaging that appeals to environmentally minded buyers also allows your brand to reach a new audience. Another advantage of packaging liquids in cartons is the option to place a label on the front or back of the package.
