In Today’s fast moving media
oriented World, selecting the right packaging design for your product is often
a requirement to the products success.
A Customer’s perception about the
product content is greatly influenced by the packaging that contains it. “A box is not just a box” it’s a selling tool
that helps your product become a star.”
There
are U.S companies online that specialize in delivering affordable high quality custom packaging solutions starting
with product engineering and CAD design to prototype creation then to the final
production of the product. All of this is done entirely in the U.S.to guarantee
on time delivery for those must’ deadlines.
A major consideration
in delivering a new product to market is the use of cost-effective and
environmentally friendly materials.
Here are
(4) applications of packaging materials and construction.
For you to consider before
deciding on which application is right for you.
Fluted Corrugated

advantages over most other packaging constructions.

corrugated fluting along edges and minimal screen detail result in a more
“industrial” presentation
Corrugated
Litho

advantage of luscious 300 line screen offset printing on a light weight paper
stock. The dried press sheet is then adhered onto fluted corrugated. The
container takes final form after die cutting and assembly.

cost than fluted

remains visible

cover weight paper stock results in a premium looking package. Added durability
can be enhanced through the use of film lamination in place of typical varnish.
The complex die cuts are then scored, folded and assembled using glue tabs
strategical y built into the die design.

solid Pantone® colors, foil stamping and embossing or debossing. Decide on a
protective resin or film laminate for durability. Your sheet is then careful y
wrapped around the heavy-duty inner core. Once its edges are turned and
creased, they are sealed into place by an inner liner that fully conceals the
core. Fabric and vinyl are also available but are more limited graphicaly.
