How to Package Your Product for Retail
Whether you’re trying to determine the right packaging size or what branding options to go with, A-Pac Manufacturing is here to help. Here’s a guide to how to package your product for retail.
1. Choose Your Ideal Type of Packaging
Here at A-Pac Manufacturing, we offer a diverse range of plastic bag packaging options. Whether you’re selling small plastic beads, bulky building supplies, or delicious food, we’ve got the right bag for you.
The types of poly bags that we offer include flat, wicketed, gusseted, sideweld, and bottom-seal. Two-dimensional flat poly bags are the most common and are a versatile solution for a wide range of products and applications, such as bread, meat, and poultry.
Gusseted poly bags have expandable sides and flat bottoms to accommodate a variety of products, including coffee, bulk nuts, and cookies. These bags can stand up when filled and are significant space-savers for many applications.
It’s important that you choose the right bag for your business. Browse our online inventory to discover what works best for you.
2. Determine the Best Size of Packaging
Choosing the right bag size is crucial. Your bag must be large enough to fit your product properly and also protect it against dirt, debris, and moisture. You also don’t want to use a poly bag that is too big. With extra material, you risk generating unnecessary waste and extra costs.
To determine the best size packaging, take measurements of your product’s length, width, and depth. If your items are flat or two-dimensional, basic flat poly bags will be fine and they come in standard measurements.
Take note that if your item is three-dimensional or oddly shaped, you’ll need a poly bag that can fit comfortably around and cover all its parts. Measure the space the product will take up on the bag from the widest points to find the minimum size bag you need.
3. Get Custom Bags To Reflect Your Brand
Your packaging is the face of your business. It will identify your product on the shelves and let your customers know what’s inside the bag. Packaging should clearly communicate everything you want your brand to represent. The best way to do this is by investing in custom-printed bags.
At A-Pac Manufacturing, we’ve partnered with an industry-leading flexible packaging printer to offer custom-printed, high-quality poly bags for your food, industrial, and medical packaging needs. We invest in digital color-matching and an 8-color process system to deliver eye-catching graphics, logos, and color palettes for custom-printed poly bags.
Our one-of-a-kind custom poly bags can be made using flat bags, wicketed bags, zipper bags, gusseted bags, and poly bags with tape closure. We know that the type of bag you use for your product matters, and we strive to offer you the best options to choose from.
