Product Packaging Design
The BoldtSmith team has the most advanced packaging design software which allows us to efficiently create optimized packaging designs. Our design software ties into programs that allow us to maximize the number of packages that fit in a trailer or ocean container. This gives our team the leverage to create the best possible packaging solutions for freight shipping and LTL shipping.
Our brand identity experts develop attractive product packaging to better engage your customers in retail and e-commerce sales. Over 50% of consumers say they would purchase a product again due to superior packaging, and around 30% of people have reported making purchase decisions on packaging alone. Your product's packaging can help you stand out in a competitive marketplace.
In-House Packaging Samples
Packaging structures we work in range from plastic clamshells to metal returnable crates and everything in between. Our state-of-the-art Data Tech table cuts packaging samples quickly and efficiently. Having this resource allows us to complete design work and sampling internally. This gives our customers ownership of packaging specifications and allows them to have the packaging designs quoted through multiple suppliers for competitive pricing.
