You may have heard the saying, “We eat first with our eyes.” This statement refers to making food look good as well as taste good, but it can apply to your company’s packaging game plan. With custom branding on your boxes, people will start associating your company with a certain aesthetic. They’ll have feelings about your company before even buying or using one of your products for themselves. Before even “tasting” your product, they’ll have an idea of what they could expect based on your branding.
Your customers choose you because they enjoy your products. Appeal to them further with a brand image they enjoy and recognize. They’ll love seeing your logo show up on their doorstep, and that will only add to their excitement for opening the package. It will be like a familiar friend paying them a visit — or a meal that looks as good as it tastes.
Reaching new and existing customers is all about marketing. You can appeal to your target audience and make them proud to be a part of your customer base with an image they can get behind. Get your brand out there with custom boxes that give consumers something to think about and identify with.
Think of boxes like a canvas for you to paint your message across. Do you care about the environment? Does your business donate to charities or other social causes? What’s your company mission and vision? Think about what you want people to know about your business and put that information on custom boxes for your products. You may see a higher return as you show your intended consumer base what you stand for.
Shipping can get expensive based on the size and weight of your boxes. That’s why you should try to get the right size packaging for your products. You should limit the amount of empty space within your packaging while also ensuring your products are safe during transit. Achieve this goal with custom box sizes for each of your products.
Bolt Boxes wants to help you get perfectly sized boxes for your items. You spend a lot of time, effort and money making high-quality products, so you should have packaging that lives up to that standard. Send us pictures of your products along with measurements. Or send us a product sample to ensure we make the perfect box for your products while keeping them safe on their way to your customers.
When you ship your products out for delivery, they pass through a lot of hands. Shipping plant workers, delivery people and even neighbors will all see your company’s boxes on their way to their final destinations. In a world with countless companies and delivery boxes, you should do all you can to make yours stand out.
Use bold lettering, bright colors, interesting designs and unique box styles to set yourself apart from other companies’ packaging. Package handlers will take note of your unique packages, furthering your brand image and marketing tactics. You can even add customized images and lettering inside your packaging to greet your customers when they open their packages. Those touches could be enough to encourage them to buy from you again. Vibrant, unique boxes are part of a comprehensive campaign to give you the edge over your competition.
Caring for the environment is everyone’s duty. When it comes to packaging your products, you may wonder if there is an eco-friendly solution. Luckily, there is.

Are your shipping boxes arriving crushed and punctured, or otherwise damaging your products? Or maybe you’re ready to level up your customer experience by sprucing up out-dated, plain cardboard boxes?

Corrugated packaging inexpensively enhances the customer experience, offering a cost-effective, sustainable way to package and ship your products.

Corrugated cardboard is one of the sturdiest and most secure packaging types on the market. It has a structurally sound design — one layer of fluting between two layers of cardboard — that provides exceptional cushioning for even the most fragile products.
It’s also a consumer’s preferred packaging choice. 70% of women and 65% of men say paper and corrugated cardboard packaging makes a product more attractive than other packaging materials. In fact, 71% of American consumers say they are more likely to buy brands that package their products in paper or cardboard than other materials.
There are various corrugated cardboard box types and sizes, making them an excellent option for your unique needs. At Dusobox, our corrugated boxes can be fitted to your specific product, reducing the amount of packaging material — bubble wrap, peanuts, etc.— you need to use.
Corrugated cardboard is also more sustainable than other packaging materials. It’s lightweight, which lowers freight and handling costs and emissions. It’s also recyclable; on average, corrugated cardboard boxes are made from 70% to 90% recycled materials. Nearly 80% of American consumers consider sustainability when purchasing products, so corrugated cardboard could be a great addition to your sustainability practices.
Instead of blank space, think of your boxes as inexpensive marketing material to megaphone your business’ brand, values, and mission statement. You could even highlight important regulatory or informational copy to inform your customers. With the ability to print on the inside and outside of the box, you could significantly cut down on extra paper or marketing materials inside the box.
At Dusobox, we work with you to offer the most cost-effective solution for custom printed corrugated boxes. In the past, businesses were relegated to litho-lamination and flexography for high-quality graphics on custom corrugated boxes. Now, advances in the printing process have launched corrugated digital printing into mainstream use. This has expanded the options available to brands and gives you a great opportunity to better connect and communicate with your customers.
Custom printed corrugated boxes are a great way to expand brand awareness without spending additional marketing dollars. From your customer to their next-door neighbor, or even the delivery person, you’ll attract more attention to your brand with a custom box than a standard brown container.
How much is an investment in custom printed corrugated boxes really worth? Odds are, it can improve your bottom line. Direct-to-consumer shipping — think subscription boxes and online purchases — have skyrocketed recently, along with unboxing videos posted on social media. In these videos, people film themselves opening their most recent purchase and upload them to popular sites like YouTube. If you have attractive packaging, your brand is more likely to show up in these videos, giving you free advertising. Read our subscription box packaging blog to get more ideas for viral-worthy packaging.
Dusobox can print on the inside and outside of your box to enhance your customer experience. We’re also able to fabricate internal die cuts to hold your product in place and provide better presentation upon opening.
We know inconsistencies in your brand’s color reduces your business’ recognizability and lowers the quality of your product. As a G7 Master Qualified Facility, we can also match any brand color, ensuring consistency across all your printed materials.

These sturdy, sustainable, and cost-effective boxes are great for elevating your customer experience and expanding your business’ brand awareness. We’d be happy to help you design a high-quality custom package, produced with G7 certified color management technology, to package and ship your unique product.
