They vary in levels of weight, durability, and environmental impact, so we have to consider sustainable options that are biodegradable
The packaging designs should align with the brand identity and create a visual appearance. It also helps to recognize the product and builds brand loyalty. We need to give essential information on the packaging, such as cautions, precautions, and directions to use.
Optimization of packing is important for efficient transportation and storage. We need to consider factors such as size, and weight to minimize shipping cost and storage space requirements. We have to ensure that the packaging complies with relevant regulations and standards which include labeling requirements, or specific regulations related to the product.
We need to consider the overall user experience from the moment the customer sees or receives the product and when they start to use it. It enhances customer satisfaction.
For perishable goods, such as food, or certain pharmaceuticals, packaging helps extend the shelf life of the product and preserve the freshness, which also prevents exposure to air, moisture, and other external sources that will not compromise on quality of products. Packaging helps deter theft and tampering, Sealing can build customer confidence in brands.
