Bad packaging is costing brands real money each year. The US discards almost 99% of pet food packaging in landfills or oceans each year, since bags and pouches are difficult to recycle.
The sturdy paperboard box handles that issue head-on. They can provide your products with actual shelf presence, keep moisture from getting to your product, keep it from being damaged by punctures and instantly advertise the quality of your product when customers pick it up.
Your box will serve as a billboard, rather than a container. Your logo, your brand colors and full-color artwork for your logo can be printed on all visible panels on custom pet food boxes which essentially are free advertising on the shelf.
Options for finishing are quick to complete. Laminate with matte or gloss, spot UV, foil stamp or clear die-cut window to entice buyers to take a closer look before checkout. These details can tip the balance between a “good” and “premium” feel and make food boxes look more than just another option.
Product structures vary according to product. Tuck-top boxes are ideal for dry kibbles and treats and rigid boxes are ideal for premium custom pet food packaging lines which require extra protection during shipping and on display.
For subscription brands that go straight to pet owners, mailer boxes are a great solution. Each style is housed in our complete custom food boxes line, designed for brands that require not just a solid box structure but also crisp printing. In either format, our food packaging is ready to fill, meaning that there is no time wasted standing around waiting for materials and last-minute reprints.
We serve regular deliveries to pet treat makers, kibble producers and raw-food producers. Pet food boxes serve as a viable solution for independent pet boutiques and subscription box startups to launch new product lines without investing huge amounts of money initially.
Veterinary clinics that sell prescription diets and brands that package pet vitamins use these same box structures. Pet food packaging designed for one type of pet can also be easily resized to fit another.
Beyond small-scale trials, the prices start to drop. The higher the order, the more you save per box with 1,000 units or more resulting in a 20-35% discount based on size, printing and finish. It’s not a problem for smaller brands either. Low minimum order quantities let smaller brands test a new product line without committing to a large wholesale investment upfront.
While most packaging platforms will only offer design templates, those templates will need to be sourced separately for print and production from another vendor. Design, print and send all in one place which eliminates that additional delay.
While smaller and mid-size brands may not be able to afford the volume commitments that are typically required by large industrial suppliers, they often find that their volumes are not reflected in the price. Our pet food packaging will be flexible for brands that grow rather than just large-scale runs.
