Creative packaging provides an important contribution for retailers who are seeking value solutions that offer innovation and design, to achieve differentiation at the point of purchase.

Beauty and Fashion suppliers such as Easibind are responding to these requirements by using modern polymer materials and innovative designs to achieve results that provide a value for money proposition for all key stakeholders.

Innovative Solutions For KMS

Pillow Packs

Praxis is a creative design company that worked in partnership with Easibind to provide an innovative solution for KMS, a leading American Beauty and Haircare Brand. They wanted to achieve a high impact launch pack for a product range update.

The pack was a 3 stage launch, starting with small 'teaser' packs sent out to salons, followed by a larger pack to contain full size product samples and a premium sales presenter to work as a desktop presentation for products and visuals - each to fit the premium style of KMS through design and print.

One of the essential requirements was to provide a complete solution with a finished packaging range including full graphics that demonstrated the creative proposition. This could then be extended to pre-production runs for test marketing and field testing.

Personalised Sleeves

HSBC Themed SleevesSegmentation is an innovative solution to extend the life cycle of a product by promoting its relevance at key times of the year. For example, Jewellery can be purchased all year round.

What makes it relevant at Christmas, Valentines Day, Mothers Day, Fathers Day, and even Professional Day for businesses celebrating their own special events?

The answer Personalised Sleeves which offers a low cost, short run, high value solution and can increase annual sales significantly.

Easibind designs can also make full use of the advantages of high performance polymers to extend useful life of packaging.

Easibind has introduced a complete range of printing and finishing processes to facilitate production of short run prototypes and promotions, medium runs for private label and limited editions and high volume runs for extended production.

Extended Product Life And Reusable Packing

High performance Polymers are not affected by damp conditions and are completely water proof - ideal for car cleaning kits produced by Jewelultra and designed to last even when stored in cold damp conditions such as the shed or garage.

Storage containers demonstrate a really useful reusable value. Beauty and fashion suppliers are finding this, even extending the use to portable carry cases with high impact visual graphics.

Creative packaging can enhance visual appeal and ensure that product differentiation and volume sales growth is achieved.
