At Great Northern, we recognize that standardized packaging doesn’t work for every customer. We’ll collaborate with you to produce a custom packaging design that is compatible with your products. Customization provides a host of benefits:
Food and beverage containers come in an array of sizes and shapes and consist of fragile materials like paper, glass and plastic. We can create packaging that provides the perfect fit for your product, eliminating material waste that can increase your packaging costs.
Damage can occur when a package is too large or small or lacks features to safeguard an item during transportation, storage or handling. Including custom options like hanging holes, reusable zippers or tear tabs offer additional protection and improve the customer experience.
Custom food product or beverage packaging enables you to differentiate your goods from the competition. An attractive, unique design can make the package stand out and entice customers to take a closer look.
Customization allows you to promote your company’s image. Consumers will readily identify your business via the package’s design, which reinforces your brand image and increases familiarity with your products.
Common food safety packaging solutions involve materials like flexible packaging, paperboard, metals, and glass. Each material offers unique characteristics suited for different applications, ensuring product protection and consumer safety, whether the goods are frozen, refrigerated, or on retail shelves. Custom solutions can also enhance brand visibility.
Great Expectations is more than a tagline, it is an attitude. At Great Northern, customer challenges are met by an undying spirit to doing what others can’t or won’t.
It’s in our DNA. And it is what our customers have come to expect with Great Northern.
