Choosing the right coffee pouch size is important for freshness, presentation and making your coffee brand stand out in a competitive market.
At Pro Packaging, we produce custom coffee bags for brands across Europe, including the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Ireland, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria and other European markets.
We offer custom printed flat bottom coffee bags, degassing valves, resealable ziplocks, premium finishes and free packaging design.
But our goal isn’t to create another generic coffee bag. We create coffee packaging designed to get attention, strengthen your brand and help sell your coffee before the customer has even tasted it.
Most Popular Whole Bean Coffee Pouch Sizes in Europe
For whole bean coffee, these are some of the most popular retail weights and our recommended flat bottom coffee pouch sizes:
|
Coffee Weight |
Recommended Flat Bottom Pouch Size |
|
250 g |
13 × 21 cm |
|
340 g |
15 × 21 cm |
|
500 g |
16 × 23 cm |
|
1 kg |
18 × 28 cm |
These sizes are useful starting points for European coffee roasters and brands looking for 250 g, 500 g and 1 kg coffee bags.
Coffee beans can vary in volume depending on their origin, roast level and density. For this reason, pouch dimensions aren’t completely universal.
Before production, Pro Packaging can help confirm the appropriate pouch dimensions and bottom gusset for your particular coffee.
Most Popular Ground Coffee Pouch Sizes
Ground coffee packs differently than whole coffee beans, so the ideal pouch dimensions can also differ.
|
Coffee Weight |
Recommended Flat Bottom Pouch Size |
|
250 g |
13 × 21 cm |
|
340 g |
14 × 20 cm |
|
500 g |
16 × 23 cm |
|
1 kg |
18 × 26 cm |
The bottom gusset can be adjusted depending on your ground coffee’s density, desired headspace and how you want the finished pouch to look.
If you’re unsure what coffee bag size you need, send us your coffee type and fill weight and we can recommend the appropriate specifications before printing.
Do Coffee Bags Need a Degassing Valve?
One of the most important considerations when ordering custom coffee bags with valves is whether your coffee is still releasing gas after roasting.
Freshly roasted coffee can continue releasing carbon dioxide. When coffee is sealed inside a pouch while this process is still occurring, gas can build up and cause the bag to expand or bloat.
A one-way coffee degassing valve allows gas to escape while helping limit outside air from entering through the valve.
However, not every coffee product requires one.
If whole coffee beans have already sufficiently degassed before packaging, a valve may not be necessary. Fresh beans that are still releasing gas will generally require a valve.
Ground Coffee and Whole Bean Coffee Use Different Valves
Ground coffee can require a different valve configuration than whole beans.
Because ground coffee contains fine particles, ground coffee valves can require a protective mesh or net to help prevent coffee particles from entering or leaking through the valve.
This additional component also means ground-coffee valve options are more expensive than standard whole-bean valves.
Pro Packaging can help determine the appropriate valve for your coffee before production.
Flat Bottom Coffee Bags for European Coffee Brands
Flat bottom coffee bags are one of the most popular options for premium and specialty coffee packaging.
Their structure creates a strong upright presentation while giving brands multiple printable panels for logos, coffee origin, roast information, tasting notes, brewing instructions, barcodes and other required product information.
Most custom coffee pouches can also include a resealable ziplock, helping customers close their coffee bag after opening.
Brands can further customize their packaging with premium finishes including soft-touch, matte, glossy, gold foil, spot UV and holographic effects.
Don’t Let Your Coffee Look Like Every Other Bag on the Shelf
Europe has an enormous coffee market, from independent specialty roasters in the UK and Germany to established coffee cultures throughout Italy, France, Spain and beyond.
That creates a simple problem for coffee brands:
How do you get someone to choose your coffee when they’re surrounded by alternatives?
Before customers taste your coffee, they see your packaging.
That’s why Pro Packaging doesn’t just place your logo on a generic coffee pouch.
We offer free custom coffee packaging design and develop concepts around making your product noticeable, memorable and different from competing products.
Your packaging should do more than protect the coffee inside it.
It should help sell it.
Great packaging can make someone stop, pick up the pouch and remember your brand. It can become one of the strongest pieces of marketing your coffee company has.

Professional custom packaging shouldn’t require ordering tens of thousands of bags.
Our minimum orders start at:
500 pouches for whole bean coffee packaging
200 pouches for ground coffee packaging without a valve
Pro Packaging also offers 12–14 day turnaround, free packaging design, custom sizing, premium printing options and competitive pricing.
