Reliable Test-Grade Sample Bags from Vivo Packaging

When it comes to packaging, making the right choice for your product goes far beyond colour and design. Your packaging must be strong, reliable, and capable of protecting your product in real-world conditions. That’s why at Vivo Packaging, we offer a “test-grade” sample bag service designed to replicate full-scale production with remarkable accuracy.

Many businesses request samples to check size, look, and branding. But if those samples don’t behave like the final product, they are of little value. Our approach is different. We take the time — usually around seven days — to create sample bags that follow the same strict processes as mass production. This ensures that when you test a Vivo sample, you’re truly testing the durability and functionality of the bag your customers will receive.

Why Do Our Samples Take Seven Days?

Some suppliers promise “express samples” within two or three days. While that sounds appealing, these are typically produced using shortcuts that compromise accuracy:

• UV inkjet printing on stock bags: These are limited in size, often give off a strong ink odour, and do not reflect the quality of real packaging.

• Cold lamination films: Similar to magazine covers, these have weak peel strength and poor sealing performance. After a few folds, the layers can easily separate.

At Vivo, we avoid these shortcuts. Instead, our samples are created through processes closely aligned with traditional gravure printing, the same method used in bulk production. This means our samples are not just for show — they are functional, hygienic, and capable of undergoing real performance testing.

What Makes Our Test-Grade Samples Different?

Our sample bags are up to 90% consistent with full production. Each step is managed with the same care as a mass order, allowing you to test crucial aspects such as sealing strength, peel resistance, and overall durability.

Key features of our process include:

• HP Indigo digital printing (20K / 25K / 200K) for premium-quality colour reproduction.

• Solvent-free, eco-friendly adhesives that ensure strong lamination while supporting sustainable practices.

• Professional bag-making equipment that replicates the final pouch structure.

This combination produces sample bags that are as close to bulk production as possible, giving you confidence when making decisions about your packaging.

Wide Range of Bag Formats

We understand that every product requires a specific style of packaging. That’s why our sampling service covers a wide selection of formats, including:

• Stand-up pouches

• Centre seal bags

• Three-side seal bags

• Side-gusset bags

• Quad-seal bags

• Eight-side seal zipper pouches

Whether you are in the food, beverage, health, or specialty goods sector, we can provide samples that reflect your unique requirements.

Why Choose Vivo?

Choosing Vivo means choosing accuracy, reliability, and professionalism. Instead of “mock-ups” that only give you an idea of appearance, our test-grade samples allow you to evaluate real performance before committing to large-scale production. This ensures that by the time your product reaches the market, your packaging has already proven its strength, functionality, and appeal.

At Vivo Packaging, we believe a sample should do more than look good — it should perform. With our seven-day test-grade service, you get the peace of mind that your final packaging will meet expectations and deliver results.
