Coffee packaging can be divided into many types, each with its own characteristics. The following are several common types of coffee packaging:

Canned coffee

Canned coffee is one of the most traditional and common types of coffee packaging. Canned coffee usually appears in the form of sealed cans, aluminum foil cans, and tinplate cans, which are sealed inside and can play a good role in preservation. Canned coffee is suitable for daily drinking and convenient to carry, but not suitable for consumers who pursue high quality and personalization.

Coffee Packaging Bags

Coffee packaging bag is usually made of plastic composite film material or paper material, with good moisture retention and barrier properties, which can keep the freshness of coffee. This packaging is suitable for coffee beans and ground coffee powder, and is generally portable,  easy to use, and carry.

Coffee packaging bag also has sacks and hermetic storage packaging, which are the main packaging methods for coffee beans and are also commonly used for export.
