2. INTRODUCTION TO PACKAGE ANDPACKAGING

3. PACKAGE
•In simple words, a packageis a wrapper or a container in whicha product is
enclosed. Encased, housedor sealed.
•In marketing packageis definedas, “Thewrapping material arounda consumer
item that serves to contain, identify, describe, protect, display, promote and
otherwise maketheproduct marketable andkeep it clean.”

4. PACKAGING:
•Packaging is the science, art and technology of enclosing or protecting
products for distribution,storage, sale, and use. Packaging also refers to
theprocess of designing,evaluating, andproducingpackages. Packaging
can be described as a coordinated system of preparing goods for
transport, warehousing, logistics, sale, and end use. Packaging contains,
protects, preserves, transports, informs, andsells.

6. LEVELSOF PACKAGING:
There are 3 levels of packaging:
PRIMARY
SECONDARY
TERTIARY

7. TYPES OF PACKAGING MATERIAL USED:

8. Plastic:
Thisis the most commonpackaging material and,at the sametime, oneof the most
difficult to dispose of. The factors commonto all plastics are that they are light,
strong cheap to manufacture. It is for these reasons that they are used so much, as
an alternative to cardboardglass packagingmaterials.

11. Metal (Aluminum)
The metals used in packaging are predominantly tin-plate or aluminum and are
used to make food and drink cans, aerosol cans, tubes, and slip or hinged lid for
selectionsof confectionery or biscuits. All packsare recyclable. Steel can also beused
un-plated or with coatings. Aluminum is used for drinks cans, closures, trays, tubs
andtubes.

12. Advantages:
• Brand differentiation: Metal packaging provides smart packagingthat attractconsumers
andgivebrands a competitive edge.
• Printing: Metal packagingcomesin a widerangeof designs. Throughembossing andhigh-
qualityprinting, cans deliveroutstanding shelf presence forconsumers.
• PROVEN: Unbreakable impact-resistant and puncture-resistant, Withstand extreme
temperaturesand pressure, Provide a total barrier against light,gas and oxygen, Preserve
contentsperfectly and deliversafeproducts
• CONVENIENT:Quickand easy to use- modern opening solution

13. Disadvantages
• Corrosion: Some types of metal packaging, such as steel, are vulnerable to the effects of
corrosion, which can cause the metal to deteriorate. Corrosion takes place as the metal
begins to transform back into its original state; for example, steel turns back into the iron
ore it camefrom. Metal packaging is typicallycoatedin othermaterials, suchas chromium,
to prevent corrosionfromoccurring.
• Can'tSeeContents

14. Cardboard:
•Cardboardboxesare industrially prefabricated boxes, primarily usedfor
packaging goodsand materials and can also be recycled. The term
cardboardmayrefer to a varietyof heavy paper-like materials, including,
cardstock,corrugatedfiberboard,orpaperboard.

15. Advantages:
•light weight andthus are very convenient to handle
•The raw material required is quite inexpensive.
•available in various shapes, sizes, designs and colors as per the specific
requirementof the customers.
•completely recyclable in nature that makes them eco-friendly.

16. Disadvantages:
•For packagingof certain heavy items, Corrugated Cardboard
Boxes may not very suitable because of their relatively less
endurance to mechanicalstresses.
•Under extreme pressure or on stacking, Corrugated Cardboard
Boxes may get deformed.

17. Glass:
• Glass is made from all-natural sustainable raw materials. It is the preferred
packaging for consumers’ concerned about their health and the environment.
Consumersprefer glasspackaging forpreserving a product’stasteor flavor and
maintaining the integrity or healthiness of foods and beverages. It’s also 100%
recyclable and can be reused endlessly withno lossin quality orpurity.

18. Advantages:
•Glass is nonporous and impermeable, so there are no interactions
between glasspackagingandproductsto affect theflavorof foodand
beverages.
•Glasshas an almost zero rate of chemicalinteractions,ensuring thatthe
productsinsidea glassbottle keep theirstrength, aroma, andflavor.
•It is 100%recyclable andcan be recycled endlessly without lossin quality
orpurity.

19. Disadvantages:
• Fragility: Glass is also vulnerable to sharp changes in temperature. If you heat glass and then
immediately exposeit to coolwateror air thatcanbeenoughto shatterit.
• Heavycompared to paper, plastic or even somemetal containers.
• Safety: Glass edges are sharp enough to break skin, and it's often hard to find all the pieces. If
glass shards mix with the contents of a food package unnoticed, they can do internal damage
if swallowed.

20. Blisterpack:
• Blister pack is a term for several types of pre-formed plastic packaging used for small
consumer goods, foods, and for pharmaceuticals. The primary component of a blister pack
is a cavityor pocketmadefroma formable web, usuallya thermoformedplastic.This usually
has a backingof paperboard or a liddingseal of aluminumfoil or plastic.A blisterthatfolds
onto itself is often called a clamshell. Blister packs are useful for protecting products against
external factors, such as humidity and contamination for extended periods of time. Opaque
blistersalso protectlight-sensitiveproductsagainstUV rays.

23. DIFFERENTPACKAGING STARTEGIESUSED:
An important part of the product decision making process is the design of
the packaging for your product. An effective packaging strategy can
contribute to the firm's competitive advantage. Your packaging strategy
shouldfulfil sixfunctions:unique,functional,safe, easyto remove, promote
product benefits and reinforce the brand. The packaging strategies
diagram below captures each of the six functions that your packaging
strategy should fulfil. The diagram below summarizes the six functions
thatproductpackagingshouldfulfil:

24. UniquePackaging:
The packaging "must stand out from the crowd" and be different from your
competitors. You do not want consumers to confuse your product with that of your
competitors. However non branded supermarket goods may do the opposite and
produce packagingwhichis similarto popular brands forexample cereals,coke and
ketchup. Thisis to convincecustomers thattheyare gettinga qualityproduct,which
is just as goodas thebranded version.

25. FunctionalPackaging:
• If thepackaging hasmorethanone function, ensurethatit performs all of its functions. For
example the packaging for Muller'scornerrangeof yogurts is dividedinto two sections; one
section contains the yogurt and the other contains the topping. The packaging enables
consumersto decide how to mixtheir yogurt and is therefore interactive. Packagingfor food
products must preserve the product for a period of time. Whilst packaging for fragile
products should protect the product during storage and transit. If the packaging contains
product instructions, make sure the instructions are clear and will not be accidentally torn
whentheconsumer is removing theproduct.

26. SafePackaging:
Thepackagingmustbetestedto makesureconsumers can safely use it. The packaging should
alsosafeguardpeople living withthe consumer suchas children. Forexample medicinebottles
are designed with caps that children cannot remove easily. Do not use dangerous products to
wrap your product and makesurethepackagingdoesnot contaminateyour product.

27. Easy to RemovePackaging:
Consumer give up products, if packaging makes it difficult to access or use the product.
Packaging must also allow consumers to remove it without damaging the product. Some
manufacturerswill provide labellingon the packaging to help consumers remove it, for
example arrowsshowing whichside is the top of theproduct or instructions on how to remove
lidsfrommedicine bottles.

28. Promotional Packaging:
Packaging must be designed to promote the benefits of the product. When consumers are
decidingon whichproduct brandto choose, they will use the packagingto maketheirdecision.
Ensure that the packaging highlights product benefits especially unique benefits not found in
competitorproducts

31. BRANDING:
• Definition: “A brandis a name, term, design, symbol,or any otherfeaturethat identifies one
seller’s good or service as distinct from those of other sellers” (American Marketing
Association).
• It tells themwhatthey can expectfromyourproductsand services,and it differentiates your
offeringfromthatof yourcompetitors.
• You can consider a brand as the idea or image people have in mind when thinking about
specific products, services and activities of a company, both in a practical (e.g. “the shoe is
light-weight”) and emotional way(e.g. “theshoemakesme feel powerful”).
• A brand is the perceived image of the product you sell, and branding is the strategy to create
thatimage.

32. ADVANTAGES:
RECOGNITION
AND LOYALTY

SIZE

QUALITY
IMAGE OF
EXPERIENCE
AND
RELIABILITY
MULTIPLE

33. DISADVANTAGES:
• Complex: The brand identity building process is complex. The process entails extensive
research, including market research, marketingaudit,competitive auditand usability,and a
clearbrandingstrategy
• Expensive to Design: Designing and creating a brand identity is expensive and time
consuming.Brands either delegatethe task to theirmarketing teams or hire consultants
whochargeby the hourand spendmany hours in close consultationwith managers.

34. • Difficult to Maintain: it is difficult for companiesto maintain brand identity
because of changingcustomerpreferences, productor service diversification or
companyexpansion.
• Difficult and Expensive to Change: Changing and modifying brand identity is
difficult and entails extensive planning and managerial skills. Managers
responsible for the change are required to possess sound public relations,
branding,communications, productions,marketingandmanagement expertise.

35. LABELLING:
• Displayof information abouta product on its container, packaging,or the product itself.
• Your product’s label delivers your sales message. You can explain what benefits you offer that
competitors don’t, for example, or promote a prize or discount. For instance, images of happy
families,healthyathletesand green pastures eachspeakto different types of consumers.
• Labels also must fulfill your legal obligations. Food manufacturers, for example, must publish
detailednutritional information in a specificformat andemploy marketingterms -- suchas
“low-fat”or “reducedcholesterol”-- that conformto federal regulations.
• Like branding, the objective of labeling is to give information to customers about the product,
whichthe consumers want to buy.

36. ADVANTAGES
SimplifiedCompliance: A professional labelingsolutionmakes
label changeseasier and helps ensurecompliance.
GreaterSupply ChainEfficiency: Accurateand fast transaction
processing are keys to supply chain efficiency, and clearly-printed
barcodelabels are thecornerstoneof any transactionprocessingsystem.
Product labels can be used to establish a brand, and to
conveyimportant safety instructions, nutritional info, and
otheressential informationfor customers.
Labelingis criticalforhealthynourishment becauseit provides
data about the amount of unsaturated and saturated fats,
calcium,carbohydrates,sugar, iron,calcium,minerals,vitamins,
calories and sugar presentin a certainproduct.

37. DISADVANTAGES
• Negative Attributes: If a product or serviceexperiences a negative event thatwill become
attachedto the brand. For example, a massiverecallor unintentionallyoffensive ad
campaign can tarnisha company’s brandand image, causingthe company to needto build
a wholenewbrandand identityto recapture its place in themarket.
• Foodlabellingis a prettypoor way of makingpeopleeat more healthily.Theidea assumes
thatpeopleactuallyreadthelabel – whichquiteoften,theydon’t.
