Packaging serves important branding, marketing, and communication functions. It identifies the brand, differentiates the product from competitors, and communicates value to customers. Packaging must attract attention on retail shelves among many similar products. Case studies show how changes to packaging design and colors can increase market share by making key brand messages like "caramel inside" more noticeable. Packaging is also a form of silent salesman that can influence purchasing decisions through images and information on the package.

11. Essential tools of packaging
• Brand identity:
• The brand identity creates, in conjunction(combination) with the name, the
persona of the product and is the essential identifier that enables us to
memorise the product and its packaging. The most successful brands are the
product, they are totally synonymous with the product.

12. Essential tools of packaging
• A unique ownable brand colour can be an integral part of the brands toolbox.
Tiffany’s blue, Coca-Cola’s red, Guinness's black are all identifiable elements that
help us recognise the product.

13. Objective of Packaging
• .
• Physical protection
The objects enclosed in the package may require protection
from, among other things, shock, vibration, compression, temperature etc.Eg :
Egg, Bottles

14. Barrier protection
• A barrier from oxygen, water vapor, dust, etc., is often required. Controlled
atmospheres are also maintained in some food packages, keeping the contents
clean & fresh.
Eg: Fruits, Vegetables

marketers to encourage potential
buyers to purchase the product.
Package graphic design and physical
design have been a important
phenomenon(fact).
Eg: Chips, Biscuits

tamper resistance to deter tampering and
also can have tamper evident features to
help indicate tampering(to carry on
underhand).
• Eg: Coke drinks, water bottles.

17. . Convenience

distribution, handling, stacking(an orderly
heap), display, sale, opening, reclosing, use, dispens
ing(distribution), and reuse.

18. Consideration for packaging
• Prevention: - Use the packaging where needed.
• Minimization :– Minimize mass & Volume.
• Reuse:- Encourage reuse of packages.
• Recycling :- Reprocess materials into new products.
• Disposal :- Use disposable, eco-friendly package.

19. CasE stuDiEs…..

20. Challenge:
• Nestle’s Bar One initially had a red and silver packing. The chocolate received
strong competition from Cadbury’s Five Star and thus suffered from low trials.
The major problem was that the consumers were not aware that the product
gave the same chewy 'caramel inside' experience as Five Star.
Solution:
A research later decoded that gold as a color defined the (caramel inside) category
and the package color combination was then shifted from red and silver to red and
gold, resulting in an increased market share for Bar One.

21. Breyers ice cream
Challenge:
A good example is Breyers ice cream, which, until the mid-1980s, served a strictly
regional, north eastern market. But Breyers wanted a national market and needed
a strong national program to compete.
Solution:
At the time, Breyers had a bland(smooth) white package that looked like all other
ice creams in the retail shelf. To accomplish national distribution, it was suggested
that the brand totally change its branding and packaging. Instead of white
packages, black became the background color—the first time ever on any dairy
package—and the photography and graphic elements were completely changed.
Retaining the Breyers leaf logo from the earlier packaging, the new design featured
oversized(standard), mouth-watering photography of ice cream that, against the
black background, enabled each flavor to pop off the shelf.
 Since then, low-fat and other varieties have been added to the Breyers line.
These are differentiated through additions of color on the package. The most recent
line extension, Smooth & Dreamy, introduces bright colors but maintains the black
background at the top for brand continuity. Thus, though some package “drama” has
been lost by reducing the ice cream photos and a new angled Breyers logo, brand
identity recognition has been maintained.

22. analysis
• case : Improve Packaging
• Challenge: Damage; Waste
• Solution : Designed a Reusable Engineered Wood Crate(wooden protection case)
• Results : Eliminated Product Damage; Improved Sustainability
A manufacturer shipped long rolls of highly valued paper suspended on wooden pallets
with corrugated(folds) 88l.gbt sleeves and wooden top caps for protection. Product damage
rates of 15% were causing significant customer complaints, delivery delays, and costly
returns. Nelson Technical Center designed a reusable engineered wood crate that has
completely eliminated product damage. Through the use of Nelson-ART, a global return
program for these crates(wooden protect case for shipping) was established for the
collection, return, and reuse of the crates.

38. Inner sanctum of packaging..
• Kristie Lorette started writing professionally in 1996. She
earned her Bachelor of Science degree in marketing and
multinational business from Florida State University and a
Master of Business Administration from Nova South-eastern
University. Her work has appeared online at Bill
Savings, Money Smart Life and Mortgage Loan.

39. According to her…
• Facilitates Purchase Decision
Packaging may also contain ingredients and nutritional information about the
product. This information can help to sell the product because it allows potential
customers to obtain the necessary information they need to make a purchase
decision. Information contained on a package may propel the reader to buy the
product without ever having to speak to a store clerk.

a brand apart from its competitors. It promotes and reinforces
the purchase decision not only at the point of purchase, but
also every time the product is used
