Enhancing Your Sales

You can greatly enhance your products’ perceived value by using custom display packaging, thus helping you drive your sales up. Custom display packaging helps you grab the attention of potential customers who are more likely to purchase your product if its packaging can get their focus.

Selecting The Best Material

It is important to select the right kind of material for your custom display packaging boxes. Why? Because the material will determine how durable your custom packaging display is and what kind of print quality, it will be able to offer. Some of the commonly used material include the following;

• Kraft Material
• Card Stock Material
• Corrugated Material
• Rigid Material

Kraft Material

If you’re looking for a packaging material that is sufficiently sturdy and helps the environment as well, then look no more. Kraft is also known as an eco-friendly packaging material because it is recyclable and biodegradable.

Card Stock Material

This is the right choice if you know that your custom display packaging won’t be undergoing shipping. This material is not the strongest material but can offer a high print quality. You can use this to promote your brand and to carry out effective marketing campaigns.

Corrugated Material

Do your products need to be shipped? Is there going to be retail handling involved? Are your products delicate? You can sit back and relax because corrugated material results in the sturdiest possible custom display packaging. We can adjust the flute size based on your requirements as well.

Rigid Material

With this option, you will make your custom display packaging look and feel more premium. The rigid material not only offers one of the best possible protection but also offers high-quality print.

We understand that selecting the right kind of material for your custom display packaging may seem overwhelming. Don’t worry, at GoTo Packaging; our packaging experts can help you select the best material for your packaging needs based on your requirements.

Prototyping Of Custom Display Packaging

It is important to get a prototype or a sample of your custom display packaging before you fully commit to it. It helps you in different ways; you can make adjustments, spot any overlooked mistake, and you will be able to see if your product gets snuggly placed into the box. We, at GoTo Packaging, believe in measuring twice and cutting once. Our list of sampling options includes;

• Flat View
• Mock-up Video
• Physical Sampling

Flat View

This is the most basic kind of prototyping that we carry out. We will send you a 2D image file of the die card. You will be able to see the scoring lines, measurement, and the artwork that will be printed onto it.

Mock-up Video

The next kind of prototyping that we offer is a 3D mock-up video. This will help you assess all of the edges and angles of your custom display packaging and decide if it’s good to go or not.

Physical Sampling

The final prototyping option that we have is a physical sampling. We ship an actual sample of your custom display packaging to you. You can carry out color tests, place the product in it, and assemble it on your own to see if it matches your requirements or not.

Color Models & Printing Methods For Custom Display Packaging

Despite the right material, packaging style, add-ons, and finishing coats, your custom display packaging won’t have the impact if you got the colors and printing techniques wrong. A good printing technique is not only cost-effective but can help you get your message across to your customers using crisp images of high quality.

Commonly used printing techniques include the following;

• Offset Printing Technique
• Digital Printing Technique

These printing techniques are used while relying on one of the following color models;

• CMYK Color Model
• PMS Color Model

Choosing The Printing Technique

Offset printing techniques will provide you with the best image quality possible, but it is only cost-effective for bulk orders. If you have a low-volume order, choosing an offset printing technique will result in you incurring higher costs. For such low-volume orders, the digital printing technique works best as it requires no setup, offers quicker turnaround times, and is cost-effective. The image quality is not as good as the image quality you get with the offset printing technique, but it is sufficiently good enough to help you with your marketing needs.

The Different Between CMYK and PMS Color Model

The CMYK color model relies on cyan, magenta, yellow, and black to create all other colors. It mixes these colors using the dot approach and offers good color quality. It can help you create virtually any color, but the issue with the CMYK color model is that it’s almost next to impossible to get the color consistency over different printers. This could mean a lot of issues if you’re using your packaging (which you should be) for branding.

The Pantone Matching System (PMS) uses numbers for coding different colors and can help you achieve the same color every time across different printers. The color mixing happens before the application, and this color model can help you achieve exceptional color quality.
