Your Guide to Roastar’s New Sample Packs

The best packaging decisions are made when you can be hands-on. You want to feel the finish, see the seams, zip the zippers, and test the fill.

Our updated sample packs help you narrow down your choices so that you can select the right packaging for your product and brand. Whether you’re launching a new product line, switching sizes, or eyeing a new material, this pack gives you the clarity (and confidence) to move forward.

This redesign wasn’t just us. We tapped the creativity of our Designer Network to help us refresh the samples with smart branding that shows off what’s possible. While you're checking out bag structure and functionality, keep an eye out for the talented folks behind the visuals, too. We hope you'll get inspired—and maybe even find some new styles you love or a designer you’d like to work with.

Sure, these samples look fabulous, but they're way more than sweet eye candy. Here's how to make the most of your Roastar sample packs.

●      Compare structures. Need a tall, slim look? Or a wide, flat fill? Match form to function.

●      Evaluate closures. Try tin ties, zippers, and tape firsthand.

●      Get creative. Mix and match label samples, sticker styles, or play with combo packaging.

●      Test fit. Drop in your product to see how it fills, seals, and stands.

●      Plan ahead. Use this as your reference library as your product line grows.

We’ve organized our sample packs by product type, making them easy to explore and compare, with the added bonus of less waste. For only $5 per pack (shipping is free!), here’s what you’ll find in each one:

Custom-Printed Bags & Pouches

Our core lineup of custom-printed packaging—diverse, versatile, and always ready to impress.

Flat Pouches

A mix of 9 sizes, finishes, and material types (including recyclable and compostable options), all with tear notches and sleek construction. These are perfect for single-serve, trial-size, or flat-pack products.

Stand Up Pouches

Get a feel for just how many formats we carry — from compact 3x3" styles to 12” big’uns. Here you’ll find 11 variations of our stand up pouches, featuring hang holes, stash zippers, and degassing valves across various finishes and sustainability profiles.

Flat Bottom Bags

Get hands-on with 5 versions of our most shelf-stable format. You’ll see tin tie and zipper variations, plus sustainable material options and multi-panel printing that makes these bags stand out from every angle.

Gusset Bags

From metallic to kraft to recyclable matte, this batch of 6 different gusset bags covers every vibe. You’ll see several sizes up to 5 lb, with options like tin ties and degassing valves depending on your application.

Coffee Bag Labels

You’ll also find a curated selection of 4 coffee bag labels in several shapes, sizes, and finishes (including compostable, white paper, and kraft) so you can test out application, adhesion, and visual impact firsthand. To round it out, we’re also throwing in some bag tape and stickers.

Custom-Printed Tin Cans

Durable, stylish, and sustainable, custom tin cans are here to make a statement. Here’s what you’ll find:

• 4” and 5.5” tin cans

• Labeled and direct-printed options

• Seamed can with the peel & stick closure

• Unseamed can with seam top

• Clear and black lid samples

Note: If you want a 7” can sent to you, contact our team. We’ll make it happen!

Paper Tubes

Looking for something a little different? These sample tubes showcase a unique packaging option that’s equal parts sturdy and shelf-ready.

• Brown kraft and white kraft paper tubes

• Biodegradable inner zipper bag

• Round seal sticker

• Label material samples

A great option if you're going for premium feel with an eco-friendly edge.

Blank Bags & Pouches

Looking for a bit more flexibility? This sample pack of our blank packaging is built for it, whether you're planning short-run product launches, custom labeling in-house, or just want to test out form and function before committing to custom-printed packaging.

Much like the custom-printed sample pack, you’ll find a range of our most popular pouches and bags in various finishes. The difference here is that the samples are, well…blank.

Blank doesn’t have to mean boring, though. That’s why we include coffee bag labels to help you visualize your brand coming to life.

For a sustainable option, add a label to our blank recyclable bags to instantly create branded packaging that stays out of the landfill.

Stickers & Labels

This sample pack is all about sticking power. It includes a variety of our most popular coffee bag labels, beverage labels, and branded stickers (plus some bag tape). It’s perfect for testing the difference between metallic and compostable materials and seeing how a gloss finish can add flair. Also great for decorating your old Trapper Keeper your parents have in their attic.

Multi-Shipper Box

Our Bags & Pouches and Blank sample packs ship in our multi-shipper box, so you can behold it in all its glory (or just turn it into a fort for your cat.)

This sturdy carton can house up to three gusset or flat bottom coffee bags. We offer four different sizes, include smaller sizes for single bags. Consider branding it with a custom label.

Ready to get started? Whether you’re starting fresh, scaling up, or refreshing your lineup, Roastar’s sample packs are here to help you find your perfect packaging match. (Sort of like Cinderella's glass slipper, but packaging. Maybe don't put them on your feet, though.)
