Tips To Create Influential Soap Packaging

Like any other industry, the packaging industry has revolutionized, and what a transition it was. Before all this, product packaging was considered nothing but a mere product carrier, and neither customers nor brands cared enough about the looks of packaging. These days, product packaging has become an integral part of any brand in the world and can determine how much attention your brand will get. 

Product packaging is crucial in every industry, but it gets serious in a highly saturated market such as the soap market. The soap industry was valued at around $34 Billion in 2019 and is expected to reach a market cap of $55 Billion by 2027. You can imagine how high the competition in this market will be. This industry is brand dominated, and it is impossible to fight the big boys through marketing campaigns because they have budgets like no other. 

Still, some new startups rise through the ranks quickly, and that is because of creative packaging boxes. In this blog, we will tell you how you can design soap packaging boxes that will influence the purchase decision of customers. So, without any further ado, let's dive right into it.

Use Unique Packaging 

Just as mentioned above, the packaging industry has revolutionized, and this revolution has given access to many types of packaging. If you are still stuck to those traditional flip-top boxes for your soap brand, then you might have been missing out on what attracts customers. Flip-top boxes do work, but they won't make your product stand out from the competition, which is the most vital thing. 

We recommend that you try something new for your soap packaging boxes because there are hundreds of options to choose from. To give your soaps a luxurious vibe, you can use sliding drawer boxes, or you can use display boxes to increase the visibility of the product, and you have more options if you don't want to use these boxes. The thing to do is go for unique packaging that makes your product stand out from the rest so that you can attract more customers.

Go For Unique Shapes

Using unique packaging won't do the ultimate trick because you aren't the only one in the market using a specific packaging style. Every brand in the market will have access to the same packaging styles as you, but you can still get attention by using unique shapes. Don't just stick to traditional rectangle boxes because there is so much more to soap packaging shapes. 

You can go for oval-shaped boxes, hexagon-shaped boxes, or any other shape that you think will make your product stand out. When customers see something new in the market, such as hexagon-shaped boxes, they will most probably give that product a shot because this is something new to them and not something that they see every day.

Go For Inserts 

Customers get hooked to a brand for a long time when they receive the experience they weren't expecting. Most customers in the market don't expect any amazing unboxing experience when it comes to soap brands because you just open it and start using it. But you can give them that experience by using inserts. 

Now, inserts are used for product protection, but it gives a look that you have put effort into packaging, and customers love that experience. When they see that their product is placed in the same manner as it was on your store or your website, they will get hooked to your brand resulting in generating repeated sales.

Use Die-Cut Boxes 

Customers love when they see something unique in the market, and all their attention goes straight to that unique product. You need to create a desire in customers if you want to generate more sales, and that desire will come in them when you make them curious about a product. Traditional soap packaging doesn't show any part of the soap, which means that customers know about the product. 

On the other hand, if you show them just a little, they will start wondering how your soap can be different from the others that they use. You can light this fire of curiosity in your customer with the help of window-cut boxes. As the name suggests, this box has a window cut through it, which allows customers to see the product, but not entirely.

An Attractive Logo

An attractive logo can make a world of difference for your soap brand. There are chances that your customer might forget about how your soap packaging looked, or you might have changed it by the next time they come hunting for a soap. The one thing they won't forget s your logo if you do it right. You need a logo that is attractive and relevant, and this is the reason why the Apple logo stands out from the rest of the tech companies.
