Have you ever come across packaging that was insanely difficult to open? How about a box already opened, still sitting on the store shelf?
For packaging designers, the methods for providing entry into cardboard or plastic containers can be quite the conundrum. They want to allow customers who’ve purchased their products to get at these items easily, but they also want to keep damage to a minimum by making their packaging tamper-proof and transportation-friendly.
So, how can these companies have their pre-packaged cake and eat it too, so to speak? By redesigning their packaging to include seals. This low-cost addition grant buyers an all-access pass, while preventing any funny business while the products wait on the shelves to be purchased. An unstuck seal can also alert retailers to a compromised box.
