It is the packaging of a product, more regularly called the container. It facilitates the transport and storage of a liquid or solid product and thus its conservation. The choice of this packaging is not an easy task, because it must correspond to rigorous specifications and represents a significant cost for a company. The question frequently arises for many industries: How to best optimize a packaging at a lower cost?
For household products, the packaging must also be safe in order to protect users from certain chemical components, even dangerous ones. Here we take a look at the specifics of good packaging for household products.
Packaging of cleaners and disinfectants
Pour sélectionner le contenant approprié il est important de veiller en amont à sa matière. De quoi est-il fait ? Quelle quantité peut-il contenir ? Est-il suffisamment robuste ?
Ces questions sont à soulever avec un expert qui saura orienter vos prises de décisions et vous apporter un conseil adapté.
Les produits visqueux, abrasifs, mousseux ou liquides, ne seront pas emballés dans le même type de contenant.
La plupart des emballages sont en plastique, aluminium, ou en verre.
Chez ETRAVES, nous sommes spécialistes du conditionnement de nettoyants et du conditionnement de désinfectants.
Which container shape for which use?
La qualité et la durabilité d’un emballage sera un des premiers critères dont nous tenons compte. Il est important de savoir que 60% des emballages pour produits ménagers sont récupérés ou recyclés, il est donc important de favoriser un contenant qui pourra être réutilisé dans le temps. Certains d’entre eux sont écologiques, comme les Sachets doypack® et ont la particularité de prendre peu de place, ce qui les rend faciles à stocker.
Les flacons, bidons, pots et boîtes pourront être utilisés comme conditionnement de désinfectants et nettoyants.
Les Sachets doypack® seront à privilégier pour les produits plus épais type lessive ou liquide vaisselle.
Which tip for my packaging?
Depending on the desired use, the tip will be adapted. With cap, spray, tamper-evident, child-resistant, foam tip, pipette... the list is long and the thickness of the product will be taken into account in the choice of your tips.
A glasscleaner package will be easier to use with a spray nozzle, while a disinfectant package will have to be child-resistant to ensure everyone's safety.
A package that looks like you
The packaging is the first element that the customer will see, even before testing the content. It is therefore important that it looks like you and reflects your structure. As a real communication tool, your logo must be clearly identifiable and it must highlight your visual identity. The consumer must be able to live an experience, and it is only by exceeding his expectations that he will remain loyal to your company. For this, screen printing is a powerful tool that will allow the end consumer to clearly identify you and create a bond. Ease of use, shelf life, or the ecological footprint of your container will have an impact on the overall look and quality of your packaging and will increase your performance.
In conclusion, the container of your household products must meet rigorous specifications and will be a massive communication tool for your company. In order to guide you in the best possible way, our team of experts is at your disposal to offer you a personalized advice adapted to your needs.
