In today’s fast-paced world, the packaging industry is constantly evolving. With consumer expectations rising and new technologies emerging, staying ahead of the curve is more important than ever.
As a printed packaging company, it’s crucial to understand the latest trends shaping the market and how you can overcome the challenges they bring.
At BLP, a leading printed packaging specialist located in Newcastle, we understand that your packaging is not just a container—it's an essential element of your brand's identity and a critical factor in your product's success.
While your packaging design might look stunning on paper, the reality of how it translates into a physical product can be quite different. This is why requesting prototypes is not just a step in the process; it's a vital part of ensuring that your packaging meets both your expectations and those of your customers.
Innovate your packaging to become more cost-effective, and thereby more attractive to retailers and consumers.
Transporting products within their own packages reduces and eliminates repacking, therefore material, weight, shipping and other costs are reduced.
Packaging is a key part of a good shipping strategy but if you choose the wrong supplies then you’ll pay for it in product damages, wasted materials and more importantly, a loss of business.
However, choose the right materials and you’ll not only protect your products but also save on shipping charges and definitely impress your customers.
For brick-and-mortar businesses, packaging design is crucial, since it’s what will shape a prospective customer’s initial interaction with your product. People who will see and learn about your product for the first time will form their first impression based on how your packaging looks and your packaging design is as essential as the product itself.

As many businesses have moved online, more and more companies are using email to market their goods and services. While this can be an effective way to engage with loyal customers, the sheer volume of emails that the average person receives guarantees that many of them will be deleted without ever being opened.
At the same time our email inboxes are overflowing, our physical mailboxes are looking emptier. That means that a well-designed direct mail piece may attract more attention than an email. This is particularly true with new customers who aren't familiar with your company and have little reason to open your emails.
2020 was a year for the history books, a year when we all remembered just what is important to us and what really matters.
Whilst flowers and chocolates still remain high on gift shoppers lists, consumers are looking for new ways to celebrate this day, and not just with their significant others, but also with family, friends, co-workers, and pets.
