The present invention is related to container assemblies for holding a product. The container assembly includes a flexible pouch and a base. The flexible pouch includes a gusset with a bottom surface. The base is secured to the bottom surface of the gusset. The weight applied to the gusset is supported in part by the base, thereby transferring weight away from a peripheral portion of the flexible pouch that would otherwise support the weight in absence of the base. A method to produce the container assembly includes providing a flexible pouch with a gusset, and providing a base. The base is then secured to the gusset. |
