In the very start, I will suggest you recalling your experience of unboxing your first iPhone. After taking of the plastic seal, you would have loved feel of the sleek white box. This packaging is something Apple has done a serious work on. They have made sure that their iPhone packaging provides an amazing sensation to the customer. This is how the branding works. It is a no brainer that if you want your product to stand out, you are going to have to make sure that its packaging is amazing. But it has become quite challenging to pick the right box because there are too many choices available. And so, it may be a tricky thing to decide which packaging option is ideally suitable. In this article, we are going to discuss the product packaging options that you can consider. Paperboard boxes The best thing about paperboard materials is that it is easy to use while being strong and durable. This ease of use allows you to cut and manipulate the paperboard to create boxes and outer packaging of different shapes, styles and sizes. These characteristics make paperboard an ideal item to be used for personalized packaging. Another good thing about paperboard is that it comes in different grades. The availability in different grades is to ensure the fulfillment of different packaging requirements of different objects. Corrugated boxes Another very popular option among Packaging Supplies is the corrugated packaging. Corrugated boxes are prepared most commonly with cardboard. A typical corrugated sheet consists of three layers; i.e. two liners and a flute between these two liners. These boxes are ideal for the packaging of almost everything. With addition a variety of materials, these boxes can be made ideal for the outer packaging of just about anything. You can even use these boxes for the storage purposes at home and workplace. Plastic boxes Plastic has become one of the main materials in the manufacturing of products. It has even stepped into the main packaging of the items. If you look at the plastic boxes, you will realize it pretty easily that these boxes are quite stronger than corrugated boxes. If you want to preserve foods that you want to ship, you can consider using plastic boxes because they are airtight and they do not get ruined like cardboard or corrugated boxes when exposed to moisture. Rigid boxes You might have been wondering about the boxes used by Apple for the packaging of iPhones. You would have seen similar type of boxes for the packaging of other luxury products. While they feel like cardboard, you must have been thinking about the type of cardboard because traditional cardboard boxes are not this much stronger. These are the rigid boxes. These boxes are made using highly condensed paperboard which is 4 times thicker than the normal paperboard. Since these boxes are ideal for the luxury items, they are quite expensive. While strength of these boxes gives your luxury products a major branding advantage, they tend to keep the products safe even during the harsh environments.
