How to pick the Right Packaging

In our previous blogs, we’ve stressed enough about the importance of packaging. Custom packaging is a modern tool that helps attract customers. Often many brand owners neglect the importance of custom packaging and get it all wrong, which in return gives them a blow of low sales. In this article, we are going to share a detailed breakdown of tips that one needs to keep in mind before getting custom packaging done. 

Figure out the exact idea of the kind of packaging you want.

There are several factors that are important to recognize while deciding the right custom packaging for your brand. Factors such as durability and shape of the packaging and which paper material is best suitable for your product, a large portion of custom packaging depends on these small factors and in order to pull off a good packaging, it is important to implement them right. 

  • Picking the right suited paper material

  • Shaping and Designing your dream Packaging

 

How to give a perfect shape and design to your packaging box? Contact All Tech Printpack and you’ll know. 

Keeping puns aside, the shape and design of your packaging do attract customers if done right. It’s common sense that one cannot use an oddly shaped box to serve and deliver a perfectly shaped product. The key is to make sure that the customers do not face difficulty in carrying or opening the package. The more frustration the customers face while dealing with the packaging, the less are the chances of them buying the product again. 

When it comes to picking a design, novelty and practical designs go hand in hand. The current customer trend shows the inclination towards fancy yet intelligent designs. Designs create an impression about your brand impression in the customer’s head. Understanding human psychology, major brands spend a fortune in getting their brand design right. For a simple design like Pepsi’s logo, the brand spent a whopping $1 million to create it.

Importance of printing in business

 

Printing is one of the economic commodities that is accessible with ease. It is also a powerful tool that can push your sales at a profitable level. Along with delivering the best packaging products, we at All Tech Printpack make it our motto to serve our clients with the best marketing tips which can further enhance your field of sales. Below are some major key points about the importance of printing in business, which is a go-to success key of major brands and how the implementation of it can help you dominate the market. Thus every business needs to understand the importance of printing in business and create campaigns. 

 

Brand endorsement 

You create the first impression of your brand through your printed material. Printed boxes, flyers, bags, and other packaging items if done decently, directs your brand in the right direction of growth. Creating a unique image of your brand can be done by printing exclusive designs and drawings on your packaging boxes, flyers, etc. Also, it is important to use high-quality material for your printing requirements. High-quality material will speak volumes for your brand. It shows how much your brand takes customer satisfaction seriously. Good quality material and printing will reflect the standards you have set for the brand. Low-quality packaging can make your brand look cheap. 

 

Customer engagement

When you launch a product in the market, the factor that decides the success rate of your product is customer engagement. What customers are thinking and talking about your brand/products, builds your brand. Hence it is important to keep the customer engagement data in check. One way to increase customer engagement is through printing. According to an article published by FORBES, the customer retention rate is higher in printed materials as compared to digital media. The article also stated that customers are more engaged while reading printed material, unlike websites, which are glanced as little as 15 seconds. Thus advertising your brand through print media builds a sense of trust and triggers interest in your customers. Print media also helps in shaping consumer perception of your brand. Another two major gains you achieve through print media are:

  • Increase in your brand’s credibility.
  • Keeps customers affix to your brand.

 

Save a fortune!

Advertising your brand through print media is cheaper when set side by side with digital media. Advertising your brand through digital media also requires more input and effort. Whereas print media delivers the same result in brand endorsement with not much effort  (because the printing firm takes the responsibility of creating ideas and printing them better than your competitors). Also, the packaging products obtained from the print media has a high shelf life. Thus one-time investment in print media can last for a longer period. 

 

The duty of printing firms is to support and guide their customers with successful marketing campaigns and strategies. And provide support in implementing those strategies, all along the way. We at All Tech Printpack understands the importance of printing in business and stick to our duties, of proving the best to our clients and help them stay afloat in this competitive market.

Paper Packaging vs Plastic packaging

Paper Packaging vs Plastic packaging

In this article, we will discuss the crux of paper packaging vs plastic packaging

Ongoing trends in paper packaging vs plastic packaging

With the ongoing trend and more government restrictions, the survival of plastic in the packaging industry is on a brink!
The many benefits of paper and paper products over plastic, are well known to everyone.
Paper and paper products being more nature and user friendly, the graph of ongoing demand for paper packaging is only rising stable high.
The plastic manufacturers and users are facing everyday difficulties due to very low market demand and supply chain.
The market scenario changes every day depending on the user demands.
The current market scenarios are pushing in for more paper packed products because of consumer awareness about the ill effects of the plastic.
Also, with the rising environmental issues about the use of plastic, the government authorities all around the world are putting larger restrictions on plastic products.
Not only plastic but the banning of certain other products like thermocol is also considered by the authorities.
The government of all major economies is encouraging the use of paper packed products.
Resulting in a negligible consumption of plastic products.
 

The appearance of paper packaging vs plastic packaging

Talking about the appearance of the packaging, paper packed products hold higher ground as compared to the plastic.
The finishing and desired color output on the package can earn wings only with the use of paper.
Paper packaging provides an easier base for a detailed description of the product if you desire to.
Giving an attractive outer representation to the consumer about the product holds a clear possibility with the use of paper.
Paper provides a smooth base for implementing complicated designs. This particular property, plastic fails to deliver.
Also, some plastics do not allow the right shade of color to appear on the final package bag.
Hence, paper packed products are very much suitable if one wants to draw ideas with the perfect color and shape on their packed products and make a hit with more consumers.
 
There are particular paper categories adopted by the industries which are being put to use more. They are:
 

1) Kraft paper

 

2) Duplex board

 

3) SBS board

 
Let’s take a look at each of the above-mentioned categories in detail.
 

Kraft paper

 
  • When we talk about the strength and durability of the paper, kraft paper outstands all the available paper categories.
  • Due to its high resistance strength, kraft paper emerges as a suitable contender to provide a protective layer.
  • Such a protective layer helps protect the items of the box when they are being packed and shipped.
  • The production of kraft paper takes place from recycled waste, making it chemical-free, unlike plastic.
  • While plastic production comes to pass with the use of lots of toxic chemicals, making it very harmful for human use.
  • Making of gift wraps, school book covers, and high-quality boxes require the use of kraft paper.
 

Duplex board

 
  • This paper category provides a water-resistant surface and is also used to provide a glossy sheen to the package.
  • It also provides a clean printing surface, making it easier to print fancy designs on the package.
  • The usability of duplex board paper is more in producing garment and shoeboxes and also medicine boxes.
 
 

SBS board

 
  • With a low stiffness ratio, SBS paper provides a very flexible surface to customize and to work with.
  • The most important benefit of the SBS board is that it has no smell to it, making it suitable for cosmetic and pharmaceutical packaging. SBS makes a good choice for high-speed printing.
  • Whereas any plastic category does not provide a good surface to do a high-speed printing of several designs and drawings.
 
 
 
 
paper packaging vs plastic packaging
 The graphical pie chart shows the marketing share of different packaging materials in the food packaging industry.
 
As this pie chart depicts, paper and board packaging hold the largest market share of 34 percent for packaging material while rigid plastic holds a market share of 27 percent.
 
The market share of plastic packaging has been on a decline over the years while the market share of paper and paper board packaging has been increasing due to eco-friendly government policies.
