People notice the brand went above and beyond to ensure that every person who touched the package sees a logo or feels the quality used when choosing how to ship items.
Inversely, consumers notice when a package was just an afterthought, or when cheap materials were used to save a buck or two.
One thing that&#;s becoming more apparent is that many options are never a bad thing. Supplement, pharmaceutical, makeup and flavoring companies have preferences but also have needs. There&#;s a lot that goes into making educated choices in terms of quality, functionality, price points that need to be hit, and how a package needs to be shipped.

And then there&#;s also the sealing method, along with the production speed.
Sachets and sticks packs are super diverse in that they can package just about anything from condiments to over-the-counter drugs or your favorite Cajun spice blend. It does come down to what you&#;re selling and how you want it presented to consumers.
Whether you&#;re providing samples, or selling single-use versions of your supplement at high margins, you&#;ve got a couple of choices: stick packs and sachets.
Stick packs are great for tea and coffee flavorings, or just to provide a pretty, slender look and feel.
Sachets are great for anything you care to provide in a single, pre-measured dose, either for people on the go, a last-minute purchase when you forgot your regular supplements at home, or as sample packs for shampoos, or anything else that fits in the little form factor.
