Types of Custom Packaging

When it comes to distributing top quality products, having the best packaging available is a key ingredient to it being successfully shipped. Many products have set measurements that allow them to be placed inside of a box, with a divider, and shipped across the world without any damage. However, there are many products that do not meet set measurements and therefore require custom packaging.

Custom packaging can range from poster board to hexagonal shaped boxes, each designed specifically for the product in which is to be packaged, shipped, and delivered. One of the most commonly used custom packaging is Die-cut boxes. These can come in several finishing options which may include matte, glossy, or aqueous coating. Die-cut boxes can also be ordered specifically for the custom size that is needed.

Another type of custom cardboard packaging is stationary packing boxes. These boxes are designed to hold stationary type objects such as pens, pencils, paper, notepads, and other objects you would frequently find on a desk. Custom packing boxes that are designed for stationary require specific measurements. These specific types of boxes are used by colleges, schools, government offices, training institutes, and retail shops. They can also be customizable for other business needs.

When you walk into any store that avidly displays products, you encounter a special type of custom packaging, the display box. These boxes can range from small to extra-large and everything in between. They are normally seen near cash registers in retail and convenient stores displaying new products or products that are on sale. Some jewelry stores may use display boxes to show off their current name brand selection.

Special packaging boxes are used for fragile things too. The cosmetics companies use custom packaging boxes to help keep their fragrances, nail polish, eye shimmers, mascaras, creams, and other products from sliding around during shipping. These boxes also offer complete protection to every inch of the product whether it is fragile or not.

There are several other types of custom packages that are specifically used for certain products. One of the reasons why most companies choose custom packaging or boxes is because they can have their name branded across the container, in the design of their choice. The boxes can even display their company logo. It allows for companies to also advertise their products during shipment and delivery. Custom packaging compliments the products in which they are made for. They can help enhance the showcasing of new and upcoming products.
