Packaging


Packaging involves all the activities of designing and producing the container of a product.

Packaging is important for various reasons including being the first impression of the consumer to the product, and we know first impressions matter. So this says it acts more as a "five second commercial" for the product. A good package draws the consumer in and encourages product choice.

Packaging must achieve a number of objectives:

  2. Convey descriptive and persuasive information
  3. Facilitate product transportation and protection
  4. Assist at home storage
  5. Aid product consumption
