Types Of Packaging

Colorful, tactile, and sometimes unusually shaped. All classic attractions for consumer goods that hang out on a shelf looking for attention.

Thermoforming Process

Thermoforming is the process of heating material, commonly thermo-plastic or paper, until it can be molded to the desired form. This is most commonly achieved through pressure forming, vacuum forming, or mechanical forming. The applications of thermoforming are vast and include food packaging, industrial, medical, and e-commerce industries. Thermoforming has several advantages. One of its main draws is that it is very adaptable to a customer’s design needs. With a fast turnaround time, it can be used for last-minute shipments or as a quick way to develop a prototype.

Package Insert

These champions of marketing magic can be, and most often are, inserted into the Clamshell and Blister pack packaging and are utilized to deliver marketing and advertising content for the product enclosed. This allows the product manufacturer to create more of one on one-on-one relationship with the consumer so that they don’t have to guess about the capabilities of the enclosed retail item. It also allows them to include a website, QR codes for special offers, and access to further details on microsites and advertising.
