Correx® Packaging.

Using Correx® packaging, instead of traditional material such as corrugated cardboard, can have a number if benefits depending on your intended application. As the boxes are more durable and robust, they will last longer – something which means they are more likely to be retained by end users.

With most markets becoming increasingly crowded and competitive, any business or brand can risk becoming lost amongst the vast numbers of products vying for attention.

This struggle for awareness can be compounded by a poor perception caused through inconsistent appearance and, even worse, products becoming damaged in storage or transit.

Fortunately, the use of Correx® provides a number of ways to differentiate your products, gain increased visibility and improve customer satisfaction.

From brightly coloured, long lasting Point of Sale displays and / or dump bins to highlight your products at key locations in retail outlets, to added value packaging that can also reduce transit damage – enhancing customer satisfaction – the use of Correx® provides genuine potential for highlighting your brand and boosting sales.

Using Correx® for packaging and, in particular, Point of Sale displays, can provide valuable brand differentiation and awareness.

The bold colours of Correx®, when combined with print options that can include full colour digital, can boost sales through increased awareness. The longevity of Correx® ensures displays maintain optimum appearance longer than corrugated equivalents as well.

Regardless of application, any Correx® item can offer an excellent branding opportunity. Whether it is a service engineer taking tools onto site, a tote that will sit a in customer’s factory or even a box used to deliver fast food, the use of brand colours and printed logos can boost awareness of your brand and help with future sales.

Besides its use in POS and retail, Correx® can help increase sales indirectly too.

By reducing transit damage, the increased reliability of supply enhances end user satisfaction and aids repeat business. Besides this, Correx® can be used to create added value packaging that will be retained by the customer for ongoing use (whereas cardboard would be almost immediately discarded).

There are a number of specific options you can choose when sourcing your Correx® packaging. Which of these you decide on is likely to be dictated by the intended application or use for your packaging.

For example, any Correx® packaging that will be used in retail environments can be enhanced with a range of print options.

This can consist of anything from simple, one colour logos all the the way through the full colour, digitally printed designs. All of these options can be supplied by GWP.

The smooth surface of Correx® also makes labelling or applying vinyl lettering or graphics easy too. Whilst these are not as durable or impactful as print, they are usually a more cost effective option.

There is of course various colour options of the material itself, including standard blue, green, red, yellow, black and white. Custom colours are possible, subject to order volume.

Beyond this, there are a wide choice of design options too.

This can cover the actual style and look of the packaging itself #(and of course the size), as well as the additional features such as hinged or separate lids, handles, hand holes, buckles, poppers and other closures.
