The Pouch Collective
Sustainable packaging. Sustainable pricing.
Spread the word. Join the run.
We’re taking flexibility to the next level.
Introducing: Rootree’s Pouch Collective; another flexible packaging solution for your small or medium business – done sustainably.
Going sustainable can sometimes be more costly, so our Pouch Collective can help you bridge the gap between higher material costs and your need for eco-friendly packaging. We want to give businesses a chance to join in a shared run to print small volumes while getting the value of high-volume runs. Yes, the Pouch Collective IS as fantastic as it sounds.
Spread the word! Join the run! Tell your friends!
Here’s how to know if the Pouch Collective is right for you:
Your business is just starting up, and you aren’t able to meet traditional Minimum Order Quantities.
You need better pricing, but the order quantity you need doesn’t get you the pricing you can afford.
You’re ready to launch a new product, and you’re in need of some beautiful prototypes.
You’re thinking of making the jump to compostable or recyclable material options, but you’re not sure if it’s the right fit for your product.

You want to add SKU versatility to your product line-ups.
You rely on dependable lead times.
You get the point; it’s a shared space where we can optimize manufacturing while providing competitive pricing regardless of your order volume, which helps you launch new products to the marketplace.
