3. INTRO
When secondary packaging is done with apt branding and
packaging design, it can act as the catalyst that clinches the sale
of your product to the consumer over those of competitors
sitting on market shelves beside yours.
Secondary packaging can add to the luxurious experience of
using a product. It imbues sophistication to the packaging and
adds the differentiating factor between a premium product and
a mainstream one. For eg, a premium food product may have
multiple layers of packaging that extend the experience of
consuming it.
Secondary packaging may even be required to protect and
secure the packaged product during shipping in addition to
shielding the primary packaging from scuffs and scratches.
Another goal of secondary packaging is to provide tamper-proof
packaging, to ensure that the primary product is not tampered
with during transit. Secondary packaging helps the consumer
ascertain if the primary product was damaged, contaminated or
tampered with on its way to them.

ELEMENTS OF SECONDARY PACKAGING
The box Interior padding
Product assortment
separator
Physical reinforcement to
prevent transit damage
The various elements of secondary packaging can have another level of branding to
increase the product’s appeal and visibility on retail shelves.
