Cost drivers
Powder barrier film, matte, feature placement, SKU count, proof timing, and quantity per SKU.
MOQ planning

Quality evidence
Quality review should cover dieline fit, print proof approval, matte finish expectations, sample fill behavior, seal strength, closure or feature fit, barcode and claim placement, and ship-test notes before scaling.
Failure risk
Common failure modes include powder in the zipper, clumping from moisture, dusty seal areas, unclear serving panels, and a pouch that tips because headspace was not planned.
