Vertical Window Bags
Vertical Window Bags FAQ
How much flower fits in each vertical window bag size?
Vertical window bags hold exact volumetric weights from 1/8th oz (3.5g) up to 1 full ounce (28g) while giving customers a top-to-bottom view of flower quality. The clear vertical strip lets dispensary shoppers inspect bud density, trichome coverage, and coloration while keeping the majority of the pouch covered in light-blocking barrier foil.
- 1/8th oz (3.5g) Bags: Compact retail format featuring a narrow vertical window positioned to show flower height without sacrificing rear label space.
- 1/4 oz (7g) Bags: Mid-tier size engineered with expandable side seals to fit larger, denser nugs.
- 1/2 oz (14g) to 1 oz (28g) Bags: Large-capacity stand-up pouches built with deep bottom gussets that sit stable on retail display shelves.
Do vertical window pouches pass state child-resistant exit packaging rules?
Child-resistant options feature certified press-to-close zipper tracks that pass Title 16 CFR 1700.20 compliance testing. While the narrow vertical strip provides product visibility, dispensaries in state markets requiring 100% fully opaque exit packaging should verify local regulations before using windowed pouches for retail exit sales.
Cross-reference state exit rules in our State Compliance Regulations Guide to ensure your packaging satisfies state opaque and reclosable lock standards.
How well do windowed Mylar pouches keep flower fresh and smell proof?
Thick 5mil multi-layer foil combined with a high-barrier clear film strip creates an airtight seal that keeps volatile terpene odors locked inside. Running an impulse sealer across the top header above the zipper fuses the internal LLDPE layer completely shut, preventing oxygen exchange and extending shelf life.
If your state requires fully opaque bags without viewing windows, order custom printed bags on our Custom Printed Wholesale Mylar Bags Page.
Are vertical window pouches easy for pack crews to fill quickly?
Wide-mouth top openings and rigid foil backings stay open on the packing bench so workers can funnel flower quickly without snagging buds on zipper teeth. Stand-up bottom gussets keep filled bags upright while waiting for the heat seal bar, speeding up hand-pack output on busy harvest pack days.
