Think Outside the Cardboard Box

As a plastic bag manufacturer for over 30 years, we understand how difficult packaging can be. How are businesses supposed to keep up with consumer trends, industry trends and environmental trends, while keeping their products and packages on shelves? Developing the right strategy and strong packaging design requires creativity, a clever mind, and out of the box thinking. That’s why we are here to help you!

One of the first things your customers think about when it comes to packaging is convenience. Convenience can be broken down into two parts, safety and comfort. Firstly, your customers want to know the items they buy will be protected. So how do you show them that the product isn’t damaged? Perhaps you choose a custom plastic bag with a see through strip so they can see the product inside- or maybe even a cut out where they can touch the product. Secondly, when it comes to comfort, they want your product and packaging to satisfy their needs. They don’t want the item they just bought in a bulky package, making it difficult to move or store it. With custom plastic bags, you can pick the right size for your product and even add additional features like a reclosure seal which adds easy storage and access.

Another part of the out-of-the-box thinking comes into play when understanding sustainability. The first thing that pops into your mind when you hear “sustainability” may be “recyclable.” However, there is so much more to that when it comes to packaging and custom plastic bags. Some ways you can add to sustainable packaging processes is to use fewer materials, or switch to recycled materials. As a plastic bag manufacturer committed to reducing our own carbon footprint, we only use recycled resins for roll stock and custom plastic bags. Another way to add sustainability to your business plan is to reduce the amount of energy utilized in production of your products. During production of our custom plastic bags, we support clean energy and greener practices by recycling printing inks and solvents, participate in energy conservation shutdown programs, and invite you to do so as well.

This is just a small sample of how thinking outside of the cardboard box can open up a whole new world of possibilities when it comes to your packaging. Contact your plastic bag manufacturer and we can brainstorm together. With us on your side, you’ll never have to develop your packaging strategy alone!
