Packaging plays a crucial role in the home goods industry. While the primary function of packaging is to protect your product from damage during transportation, handling and storage, it can also benefit your brand when it is on retail shelves. Packaging can help enhance your brand identity, provide essential information about the product and improve your customers’ experience.

At Great Northern Packaging, your products are just as precious to us as they are to you. We want to ensure our custom home goods consumer packaging is polished, professional and sturdy to protect your home goods. Our six decades of experience can ensure your packaging leaves a lasting impression on your target audience.
Some benefits of choosing custom packaging for your home goods include:
Your loyal customers will scan shelves for your colors and logo — this is especially true for larger brands. Stand out among the competition with custom packaging, making it more memorable and attractive to customers. Additionally, high-quality packaging can increase your products’ perceived value and integrity.
Retrofitting a package to the product’s specific dimensions and fragility will provide support and proper cushioning. As a result, your product is more likely to arrive safely and undamaged.
Thoughtful packaging can enhance a customer’s satisfaction with a product, even if they’re not aware of it. This positive unboxing experience is an individual’s first impression of your company and is correlated with customer loyalty.
Because every package measurement for your product is intentional, you can ultimately cut shipping and storage costs. Simultaneously, you reduce waste and minimize labor required for packing and filling.
