A standing pouch mockup, made for presenting a pet food design. Drop in your artwork and the lighting and shadows stay as they are.
Packaging designers and coffee roasters tend to get the most out of files like this. Quick tip: build the label or dieline flat first, then place it; bending text inside the mockup is harder to fix later.
Packaging is judged on the shelf in a couple of seconds, so seeing the design on the real shape tells you more than the flat dieline ever will. Show it with a shipping box or bag from the same range to present the whole unboxing.
Works well for
- A pet food design
- A coffee bag label
- A snack pouch
Free PSD Templates created this one and hosts the download on their own site, so you always get the latest version straight from the source.
Editable options in the Standing Pouch Mockup PSD
Main things you can change in Photoshop:
- Label or box artwork, placed through the smart object
- Shadows
- Base colour of the pack
- Gloss and highlight layers
How to use the Standing Pouch Mockup
- Export each side of the pack as its own image if the file has separate smart objects.
- Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.
Another tip: check barcodes, weights and small legal text at 100% zoom. Packaging clients always look for those.
Ways to use this Standing Pouch Mockup
- Present a snack pouch in a client proposal or brand guide.
- Use it as the cover image for a coffee bag label in your portfolio.

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this pouch mockup for client work?
Free PSD Templates sets the licence, and it can differ from file to file. Many free files allow personal and commercial use, but some are personal-only or ask for credit. Read the terms on the download page before a paid project.
How do I add my design?
Open the file in Photoshop, double-click the smart object thumbnail, paste or place your artwork in the new tab, save it (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close. The main file updates on its own.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
Can I change the packaging colour?
Usually yes. There is normally a colour layer under the design smart object, so you can change the base colour without touching your artwork.
Why does the download open another website?
We list free files from designers around the web and link to the original page, so Free PSD Templates gets the visit and you get the file exactly as they published it.
