A product can look unattractive and dull just because of its packaging. Packaging is one of the essential factors in the sale of a product. You should package your product creatively, and the minds behind it must think outside the box to design the packaging.
Buyers want to have a fantastic experience with your product. From unboxing to consuming, everything should be a work of art.
Without proper packaging, a product may not meet the customers’ satisfaction level and eventually fail in the market.
And with so many competitors in the market, your product should stand out among them.
Let’s talk about some of the most creative packaging ideas people can use:
- Bird-shaped tissue boxes
Instead of the traditional rectangular tissue boxes, you can use custom chipboard boxes that look like a bird, which is a very catchy idea to grab customers’ attention. You can pull out a tissue from the tail end of the box just like a bird’s feather comes off.
Also, you can print a bird on a small box and pull out tissues by opening the wing on the bird’s tail. To keep the tissues clean, simply close the wing.
This idea will give ’tissues as soft as a bird’s feather’ a whole new dimension.
- Pasta in the tummy
This packaging idea is so catchy, you’ll crave pasta as soon as you spot the box on the supermarket shelf. This idea involves a rectangular box with a man printed on it with his stomach filled with pasta. There is a piece of plastic attached to the front of the box that shows the pasta as if it’s in the man’s tummy.
You can use this idea for other edibles too.
- Butcher meats
This idea is similar to the previous one, but there is one big additional feature. You can see the meat ‘inside’ the animal, which gives a clear picture of its type. Display the meat inside the animal with a plastic covering. But the difference is that if it’s beef, put a picture of a cow, and if it’s chicken meat, then a chicken can be printed on the box.
This idea is impressive because it gives the person a clear idea of which meat is in the box. Even small kids would know what kind of meat their parents are buying just by looking at the packaging.
- Cupcakes inside ovens
If you know anything about baking, you will be aware that cakes are associated with ovens. If you package a cupcake inside a small oven-like box, it’s going to do magic for you.
Just like an oven, you can open the front and enjoy that ‘fresh’ cupcake.
To grab people’s attention, use these creative ideas that, eventually, bring you more customers and higher profits.
- Vitamin Boxes
You can package vitamin tablets and capsules in cute little boxes. Pull out the inner part of the box to discover the small, attractive pills. These boxes can take attractiveness to a whole new level with fruits or animals printed on the top of a light-colored box of corrugated point-of-purchase displays.
These vitamin capsules are usually orange in color, so similar light colors will do the trick for you.
- Tie on a suit
A jacket over a white shirt can be printed on a box with a tie. But the tie is not a fictional character here. You can package the tie in a way that shows an actual person wearing it.
The black tie has an appealing effect on the white shirt. The jacket on top is the icing on the cake.
The best part about this packaging is that it gives off an eye-catching look.
- Gift boxes with ribbons
You can give presents to your loved ones or friends in gift boxes. But you cannot hand over the gift without any packaging.
If you plan to gift something to someone, the presentation and packaging should be appealing. And well, the use of a ribbon on the boxes can make the overall look simply unforgettable.
You can wrap a ribbon around a rectangular, square, or even a pillow box. The process of untying the ribbon knot is one of the best feelings in the world.
- Hair gel
People use gel to style their hair. So, there should be something hairy in the packaging too. One way is to print a person with a trendy hairstyle on the box of gel. But there are many kinds of hair gel. And so, the companies use different colors or packaging for each type.
You can print faces with different hairstyles on the box and maybe even use different colors.
As a result, your customer will be attracted to the hairstyle because that is what they want.
- Washing power inside the machine
People get attracted to a product if it’s in large quantity and at a low price. So, a washing machine-sshaped box with a round plastic window on the front showing washing powder is the perfect packaging for it. But the powder should be on the penthouse of the machine. Also, the color of the box can be white, as most washing machines are white.
The powder level in the box should be near full to give the product that full feeling.
- Stuff toys stuffed in little boxes.
Stuff toys are adorable. So why can’t their packaging design be just as cute? One of the best packaging ideas for small stuff toys is putting them in small boxes with their heads peeping out from a window. Kids are going to love this idea because they can feel the head of the toy before purchasing it.
The box of these toys can be of any color, but the design must grab the children’s attention at first glance only!
In a nutshell,
Nobody likes a poor unboxing or unpacking experience. While the quality of the product affects the sale of the product, its packaging plays a vital role too. And so, thinking outside the box for your product’s packaging will do wonders for you.
