Good news for folding cartons:

As retailers and brands from big box brick and mortar to out-of-home online businesses compete for consumers’ attention and dollars, folding cartons take on a more powerful role as a marketing tool — driving the trend towards shorter runs and print on demand.

Just as Ecommerce revolutionized retail, the pandemic revolutionized Ecommerce with an explosion of small-scale businesses selling through online storefronts on places like Amazon Marketplace, Shopify, Etsy and eBay. These entrepreneurs have unique needs that only digital print can meet, such as cost-effective short runs and quick turnarounds, with customized embellishments that make their packaging stand out from the big brands.

As the final touchpoint a brand has with the customer as well as the first impression a consumer has with the product, the unboxing is key to driving loyalty. With advances in technology and short-run digital print, creating a personalized and memorable unboxing experience is only limited by your imagination.
