Types for the Product Packaging Options

After a thorough and authentic research, we have scrambled up some handy and mostly desired packaging options that you can easily pick to enhance your product and customer experience.

Paperboard Boxes

These are the boxes that are made from the paper-based material which is really cheap, effective and easy to handle. The most noticeable feature of this paper material is that it is very lightweight but incredibly durable. You can easily mold this paper in any shape, and structure you like. Paperboard is also available with the name of folding carton. It is a consumer friendly option for packing variety of products. The smooth and flexible texture of its paper material allows you to try your hands for whichever sort of printing and processing you want.

The paper board material is made from the turning of fibrous (naturally occurring) materials that come from wood. These are also made directly from the recycled waste paper into pulp and bleaching it. You can use this material for the packing of cosmetics, medicines, milk, juice, frozen culinary items and more.

There are many types of paperboard material that you can use as per your requirement. These include white paper board, kraft, food-grade, CCNB and SBS. However, the Kraft paper is found less resistant to moisture, making it less suitable for food products. So it is recommended not to use them in food packaging.

Mailer Boxes

It is a versatile mailer box that imparts a sturdy, stylish and a scintillating look to the boxes enveloping the gift boxes, subscription boxes and e-commerce packaging. These are usually seen as the smaller sized boxes almost equal to the size of envelops with square edges.

Corrugated Boxes

These boxes are simply known as Cardboard. It is one of the most widely used packaging entity in the box factories. The most appreciable feature that make these boxes more desirable than all others is its 3 layered material. This box material is made from 3 layers of paper, an outside liner, an inside liner and a corrugated medium as the innermost layer. This corrugation imparts strength and rigidity in the material. It is used in retail packaging, pizza delivery boxes, small consumer goods and so on.

Rigid Boxes

You don’t need of much introduction if you have unboxed your nice pair of shoes or open up your brand new I-phone. Yes, product you have unboxed is boxed by the chic rigid box. These have also become the common type of packaging for the luxury products. These are 4 times thicker than the average folding cartons or cardboards. As compared to the paper and corrugated boxes, these are the most durable and expensive boxes used in the market.  Note that the dies used in their preparation are handmade that don’t require extensive and expensive machinery.

Plastic Bags

Today almost every sort of material is replaced by the plastic. Besides being cheap or even cheapest, the plastic boxes are made from the recyclable materials. We can use these boxes to preserve food everywhere from contamination.

Package Printing Style

After box making with your chosen material (type) as per your product size, the second important step is how to curate and decorate your packaging. To do this beneficial step, here we suggest you three basic types of printing methods to impart a final look to your packaging product.

Flexographic Printing

It is a common form of box printing. In this printing work, we use a printing plate that rotates on a rotatory drum, picks up the ink and stamps it on your corrugated packaging box.

Digital Printing

It is another type of printing that is more commonly used for the smaller sized orders. This printing is just like a standard laser jet printer, that you use in your homes.

Litho-Label Printing

Litho-Printing, a short of lithographic printing, is more like a wall paper type. In this printing type, instead of directly on box, prints are taken on the paper sheet, processed, cut and then pasted on the boxes. This printing method gives a cleaner and a high resolution result.
