Stick packs have brought a new portability to the market. Sometimes referred to as On-the-Go or "single serve", these packs offer a expediency over other forms of food packaging. These single serve packs derive their name from their long, skinny shape that resembles a stick of gum.

Single serve packs are made from a supple foil that are filled vertically and sealed at both ends and down the back to form a little pouch. Unlike sachets, stick packs are narrow which makes it simple to pour the contents of the package into the neck of a bottle of water. An individual pack also holds a single serving and simply fits into a backpack or purse.

Stick packs or stick-pouches have been around since the 70's. In Japan & Europe they have been established since the early 1990's. These stick pouches have begun to take hold as a new category due to the surge in demand for flavorings and additives for a more active user. Nowadays these packs reach far beyond sugar substitutes to include flavored drink mixes, energy drinks, vitamin supplements as well as diet drink mixes.

A chief benefit of a these packs are the controlled portion aspect. With consumers being as active as they are they do not have time to measure specific amounts for each usage. Single serve packs take care of that problem by having the correct dosage in every stick. Each individual stick preserves freshness while eliminating any waste for the consumer. Also, since they are not sold individually the consumer can purchase a month worth at a time.

Beyond portability these foils also have a smaller result on the environment as compared to other types of packaging. When compared with a traditional pouch the savings can be up to 35 percent on just the cost of film. These are the reasons why the demand stick packing machines are increasing day by day.

Stick packs provide many benefits to both the consumer and the environment. Due to their low per-item cost and controlled portions stick packs provide a very economical and great tasting solution for the consumer.
