Pouch Cost Calculator
3-side seal, center seal ya standy pouch ka cost — film, conversion, cylinder, zipper, packing aur profit ke saath. First order aur repeat order alag, GST alag.
1. Pouch type & size
Outer size daalo — seal ke saath. Seal dobara mat jodo.
Agar gusset 40+40 folded hai, to 80 likho.
2. Structure
Film = micron × density. Paper = mill GSM. Har do film ke beech ek adhesive bond apne aap aata hai.
Presets are published specs, not a standard. Microns apne job ke hisaab se badlo.
- Layer 1 · outside16.80 GSMExample
Density source: Cosmo Films CF-B0-CPF BOPET TDS — 1.40 g/cc (12 µm = 16.80 GSM).
- Layer 217.60 GSMExample
Density source: Same base film as PET (Cosmo 1.40 g/cc) + metal add-on. Assumption: mid-point of the 0.5–1.0 GSM aluminium deposit in CloudFilm's density guide. Use the metalliser's measured GSM when you have it.
- Layer 3 · sealant64.54 GSMExample
Density source: RollSpec materials table (nominal 0.922). Blown PE is often an LD + LLD blend and can run a few percent heavy. Once a roll is in the factory, use measured GSM.
Adhesive type
Dry 2.0–2.8 GSM per bond on film/foil (Cytech HILAM GP-50 guide; 3.0–3.5 on paper). 2.5 is GSMCalculator's 2-ply default. Solids % is a starting value — read it off your adhesive TDS.
1.5 GSM average dry ink is RollSpec's printed snack-laminate example. Gravure starting bands per colour (GSMCalculator): shallow 1.0–1.2, standard 1.2–1.8, heavy 1.8–2.5, then × coverage %.
Sirf dry ink aur adhesive GSM mein judta hai. Wet coat weight (solvent ke saath) laminate mein nahi rehta — usse GSM mat badhao. Wet kg ke liye Ink & Adhesive tool dekho.
3. Waste
Process waste alag, layout trim alag. Yahan sirf process waste.
Starting value: top of GSMCalculator's typical 3–5% combined range. A starting range, not a benchmark.
4. Conversion
Apne plant ke rate daalo. India ka koi bharosemand published ₹/kg schedule nahi hai.
₹/kg input kg par lagta hai (waste ke saath). ₹/1,000 order quantity par. Dono mein se jo aap use karte ho woh bharo.
5. Cylinder / plate
Tooling sirf first order par lagti hai. Repeat order mein nahi.
Source: Kanodia Gravure, retrieved 12 Nov 2026 — ₹2.10/cm² below 750 mm circumference, ₹2.30/cm² above. Apne cylinder maker ka rate daalo.
4 repeat around the cylinder. Tooling: 3,840 cm² × ₹2.10 × 6 = ₹48,384.
6. Add-ons, packing, profit, GST
Zipper / spout film layer nahi hai — per piece ₹ hai. Kuch bhi pehle se tick nahi hai jo aapne nahi chuna.
Order: material + conversion + tooling + hardware → packing % → profit % → GST alag se. GST default 18% (HSN 3920 / 3921 / 3923). Foil ya paper-heavy pack alag ho sakta hai — HSN apne CA se confirm karo. Yeh tax advice nahi hai.

Cylinder share on the first order: ₹0.97 per pouch — isiliye first aur repeat ka rate alag hona chahiye.

|---|---|---|---|
| Material (film in pouch + trim) | ₹76,952 | ₹1.539 | 31.3% |
| Conversion | ₹39,139 | ₹0.783 | 15.9% |

Abhi bana nahi hai.
Is costing ka quotation PDF (first vs repeat, GST alag, quantity slabs) yahan se banega. Yeh feature abhi planned hai — tab tak upar ka on-screen result use karo.
Example tag wale rupees sirf arithmetic dikhane ke liye hain — market rate nahi. Apna rate likhte hi tag “Your rate” ho jata hai aur isi browser mein save rehta hai.
These calculators are estimating aids. Example rupees are not market prices. Densities are library starting values — use your supplier TDS or a weighed GSM. GST default 18%; confirm HSN with your CA. This is not tax advice.
