All types of businesses know the importance of packaging their products. Not only does your packaging ensure the safety of your products during shipping, but it also marks the first time your customers see and recognize your brand. Custom cardboard boxes offer many benefits for big box retail companies or small business owners without breaking the bank.

According to Express Packaging Sales Manager Michael Reardon, here are the top advantages of choosing custom cardboard boxes for shipping your products.

Minimize Cost With Custom Size Boxes

Custom-size cardboard boxes are the most budget-friendly option for packaging, as shipping cardboard costs much less than alternative materials without sacrificing quality. Additionally, businesses can opt to buy in bulk, reducing costs even more. Although customization and labeling add to the overall cost, custom corrugated boxes still offer one of the most affordable options on the market.

Apply Professional Detail

According to Michael, displaying your brand messaging and personality will enhance your consumers’ experience. Creating your custom shipping box allows for many opportunities to showcase your brand. 

You may choose a simple logo stamp on the side or decide on a more intricate design that includes your company’s contact information. At Express, we offer full-color lithographic labels that can be applied to your custom corrugated boxes to leave a lasting impression on your customers. 

Improve Product Security

Your packaging is crucial in ensuring that your products arrive safely to your customers, maintaining their loyalty to your company. That’s why our custom cardboard boxes are built to the exact specifications of your product to ensure a perfect fit. A thick, durable cardboard material will keep your product in place, reducing the effects of bumps, vibrations, and shaking during transit. 

Personalize Custom Box Sizes and Shapes

The size and shape of your custom shipping box can also add to your product’s safety. General box sizes may not keep your products safe — some may move around too much or are too cramped.

Custom cardboard boxes come in all shapes and sizes to protect your products from damage during delivery. They also make it easier for the consumer to reveal its contents, enhancing their experience with your brand.

Go Green with Sustainable Custom Shipping Boxes

Did you know that corrugated cardboard is more likely to be recycled than any other paper product? That makes corrugated custom boxes better for the environment. Additionally, Express Packaging recycles 98% of our box material waste. When you buy custom corrugated boxes from us, you can rest assured that we prioritize eco-friendly practices.
