PACKAGING DIRECTIONS

Which Packaging Route Fits Your Promotional Product Project?

The appropriate route depends on the selected products, order quantity, presentation requirements, available preparation time and budget. Packaging minimums may also differ from the product minimum.

Route 1: Standard Packaging

Practical protection using available formats

Use the product’s existing bag, wrap, plain carton or other readily available packaging.

Suitable for:

  • Projects prioritizing product protection
  • Event and campaign distribution
  • Lower-complexity packaging requirements
  • Orders with limited packaging-development time

 

What to review:
Product dimensions, surface protection, individual packing and outer-carton requirements.

Route 2: Adapted Presentation Packaging

Existing packaging enhanced for your project

Use an available box, pouch, sleeve, backing card or carton with selected branding and presentation changes.

Suitable for:

  • Employee gifts
  • Client giveaways
  • Campaign merchandise
  • Projects requiring a more branded presentation

 

What to review:

Packaging availability, product fit, print area, artwork, labels and assembly requirements.

Route 3: Fully Custom Packaging

Packaging developed around the selected products

Develop a custom rigid box, printed carton, fitted insert or coordinated presentation format around the product or gift set.

Suitable for:

  • Corporate gift sets
  • Product launches
  • VIP or recognition programs
  • Multi-product kits and retail presentation

 

What to review:

Structural development, packaging materials, inserts, artwork, sampling, minimum quantities, assembly and packed dimensions.

 

 

Practicality note:

Fully custom packaging can introduce separate material, printing, tooling, sampling and assembly requirements, so it may not be the most practical route for every quantity or timeline.
