Unbox Your Packaging Potential

How To Choose The Right Packaging For Your Business
Making sure that your products reach your customers in tip-top condition is something that every business needs to get right. It’s even more crucial when sending items with a delivery courier as there is always a risk of the package getting slightly bruised along the way. Protecting your goods from A to B is super important and can also help your business reduce costs. There is a world of choices out there and picking the right solution can be difficult.
What are some of the different types of packaging available?
With so many options available, choosing the right packaging starts with understanding what you’re shipping. The size, weight, and type of product all play a crucial role in finding the perfect fit. Protective packaging not only ensures your items arrive safely but also enhances the overall buying experience for your customers.
Customising your packaging is a great way to stand out, boost brand awareness, and leave a lasting impression. Thoughtful design can turn your packaging into a memorable part of your customer journey, setting your products apart from the competition.
Now, let’s explore some of the packaging solutions available to you.
Custom Printed Shipping
Custom printed shipping boxes are the perfect packaging solution for sending bulkier items. Made from thick, rigid corrugated cardboard, they’re designed to handle heavier goods while providing extra protection during transit. No more worrying about damaged products—these boxes ensure everything arrives just as you intended.
Easy to assemble and incredibly versatile, shipping boxes are a go-to choice for businesses that need durable packaging with a professional touch. With the added option of custom printing, you can showcase your brand on every delivery, creating a great first impression for your customers.
If you’re looking for reliable, heavy-duty packaging that protects your products and boosts your branding, custom printed shipping boxes are the ideal choice!
Branded Postal Boxes.
If you want to leave a lasting impression on your customers, branded postal boxes are the way to go. Designed with a premium look and feel, these boxes are perfect for showcasing your brand and elevating the unboxing experience.
With a wide range of sizes available, you can choose the perfect fit for your products. What makes them stand out even more is the option to print on both the outside and inside of the box, giving you plenty of room to get creative with your branding. The sturdy design, complete with a closable lid, adds a touch of sophistication while keeping your items secure.
While these boxes aren’t suitable for Royal Mail’s large letter category, they’re a fantastic option for businesses looking to deliver quality and style in every parcel. Make your packaging as impressive as what’s inside with branded postal boxes!
Printed Mailers
Printed mailer boxes are a fantastic way to elevate your packaging game and impress your customers. While they may look similar to postal boxes, mailer boxes offer a slightly simpler folding design that’s perfect for showcasing your brand in style.
Customisable both inside and out, mailer boxes give you the creative freedom to make your packaging stand out. With multiple sizes available, they’re ideal for tailoring the box to your product—whether it’s beauty items, stationery, or even a snack subscription box.
Although they aren’t compatible with Royal Mail’s large letter category, mailer boxes are an excellent choice for delivering a professional unboxing experience that builds brand awareness. Functional, stylish, and versatile, they’ll leave your customers excited before they even see what’s inside!
Book boxes
Let the story begin before the first page with custom-printed book boxes. Designed specifically for books, catalogues, and brochures, these boxes provide the extra care your paper-based products need. Their sturdy construction keeps your items safe from bumps, tears, and bashes during transit, ensuring they arrive in perfect condition.
Available in standard A5, A4, and A3 sizes, book boxes offer a snug, tailored fit that enhances protection. Plus, custom printing allows you to showcase your branding, turning your packaging into a memorable part of the customer experience.
Whether you’re shipping novels, portfolios, or product catalogues, custom book boxes deliver the perfect combination of style and functionality.
Packaging Pouches
Packaging pouches (or Doypacks) are a game-changer for packaging! Whether you’re storing snacks, pet treats, makeup, or tech accessories, these handy pouches stand upright when filled, making them practical and eye-catching.
Made with 75% less plastic than rigid containers, Doypacks are better for the planet and save storage space. They come in four sizes and are made from sturdy materials that keep moisture and odours out, so your contents stay fresh. You can choose from clear film to show off what’s inside, recyclable paper for a natural look, or paper with an aluminium lining for a premium, artisan vibe.
They’re perfect for food packaging too! Doypacks are single-use, heat-resistant (up to 70°C for two hours or 100°C for 15 minutes), and meet EU food safety standards. Plus, you can customise them with zip locks, hanging holes, and your own designs on either side.
If you want packaging that’s stylish, sustainable, and super flexible, Doypacks are the way to go. Try them out and see how they elevate your brand!
Today, packaging plays a vital role in creating a memorable buying experience for your customers. It’s not just about keeping your goods safe during delivery—it’s also a powerful marketing tool. Packaging supports your branding, showcases your products, and adds a little extra excitement to the unboxing process.
By thinking outside the box (pun absolutely intended), you can make your packaging stand out, reflect your brand’s unique style, and capture the attention of new customers. Consider adding thoughtful accessories to enhance your brand presence—custom packaging tape with your logo can make sealing your box part of the experience, while a ‘thank you for your order’ flyer inside adds a personal touch. With the right design and details, your packaging becomes more than just a box—it becomes a statement.
