Ecommerce packaging is the packaging used to ship a product to the consumer once purchased online. It must be travel-friendly and protect the contents from any damage throughout its journey. Ecommerce packaging includes the box, as well as any infill used, plus adhesive tape and inserts. It may possibly be the first physical interaction that a customer has with your brand.
Ecommerce packaging can in some occasions be the first physical touchpoint a customer has with your brand, so it’s important to make a good first impression. Your ecommerce packaging has real potential to increase sales, drive customer loyalty and position your business in its desired place in the market. It can also be used to create a memorable unboxing experience that customers value highly.
Packaging solutions will differ from one another based on the product, business goals, and industry regulations. However, there are certain criteria that cannot be missed when it comes to creating an outstanding ecommerce package. These are, but not limited to:
The biggest difference between retail and ecommerce packaging is its primary purpose. Where retail packaging is designed to advertise the product from inside stores and grab the customer’s attention on the shelves, ecommerce packaging is designed to protect it through transport.
This means that whilst both should be aesthetically pleasing and encourage your customers to make repeat purchases, ecommerce packaging should offer a lot more protection over retail solutions.
Typically, ecommerce packaging is manufactured from corrugated cardboard. The specific grade or strength of this cardboard will be selected based on your products and application.
Your ecommerce packaging can be printed in various ways. From simple one colour logos, to full high-quality images. Printing can help incorporate branding, instructions, and even useful information surrounding care, returns and more.
