The pet food and treat market in the UK is one of the fastest growing segments in the food industry. Pet owners are applying the same standards to their pets' food that they apply to their own: clean ingredients, natural formulations, responsible sourcing, and trustworthy brands. Packaging plays a key role in communicating all of this.
Custom pet treat mylar pouches need to protect the product, comply with applicable regulations, and build trust with a consumer who cares deeply about what goes into their pet's body.
Pet treats (whether for dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, or other animals) share some common packaging requirements:
- Preserve freshness: Treats lose palatability and nutritional value when exposed to oxygen and moisture. A foil barrier bag extends shelf life and maintains the quality pet owners expect.
- Contain aroma: Pet treat aromas are powerful. Strong-smelling treats (meat, fish, cheese-based) need aroma containment to prevent odour transfer and to maintain packaging integrity in retail environments.
- Physical protection: Soft chews and treats can be fragile; hard treats can cause abrasion. Appropriate packaging prevents crumbling and maintains product presentation.
- Communicate quality: Pet owners read ingredient labels on pet products as carefully as they read human food labels. Packaging should communicate quality, transparency, and care.
For most pet treats with a shelf life of three months or more:
- Standard: PET/Foil/PE laminate. Full barrier performance; good print quality; food-grade inner.
- Kraft/Foil/PE: For natural and organic brands; delivers the artisan aesthetic with full foil protection.
- Transparent/window options: For treats where product visibility is important (artisan bakes, natural treats with visible ingredients).
For high-fat or fish-based treats (salmon treats, fatty dog chews):
- Food-grade greaseproof inner film specification to prevent fat migration.
Stand-up resealable pouches: The dominant format for retail pet treats. Zip lock reseal keeps treats fresh between uses; stand-up format displays well in pet shops and online product photography. Available in 50g, 100g, 200g, and 400g as common sizes.
Small flat sachets: For single-serve treats or portion-controlled training treats. Sealed sachets in three-side seal format.
Large bags: For value packs or bulk-buying consumers. 1kg and above in flat or stand-up formats.
Sample packs: Small sachets for sampling or trial packs, often used in subscription boxes or as point-of-sale add-ons.
Pet packaging design is a distinctive and competitive space. The key audiences are pet owners who are typically buying for emotional as well as functional reasons:
- They want to see the animal (their specific species and ideally their type)
- They want clear communication of the treat purpose (training, dental, health, reward)
- They want to trust the ingredients (clean label, natural, free-from claims)
- They often want to see the actual product through a window panel
Design conventions vary by market segment:
Mass market: Bright colours, large animal photography, prominent treat photography. Focus on flavour and palatability.
Premium natural: Earthy tones, clean ingredients front and centre, provenance messaging (British beef, Icelandic fish). Photography of real ingredients alongside the treats.
Veterinary or health-positioned: Clinical design language, specific health claims (joint support, dental, digestive), technical credibility signals.
Artisan and indie brands: Handmade quality, small batch messaging, founder story, local sourcing.
In the UK, pet food and treat labelling is regulated by the Animal Feed Regulations 2010 and associated EU-retained regulations. Required labelling for pet treats includes:
- Product name and intended species
- Analytical constituents (protein, fat, fibre, moisture, ash percentages)
- Composition/ingredients list
- Additives (preservatives, colourings, vitamins) if used
- Net weight
- Best before date
- Manufacturer/supplier name and address
- Country of origin for meat ingredients
- Feeding instructions or guidelines
For functional treats (dental, joint, or health claims), additional substantiation requirements apply.
