Sports is a giant industry with large sums of annual revenues. There is a wide variety of sports products that need safe storage and transit. Brands selling sports equipment need packaging that markets them effectively. Packaging makers use custom sports boxes and alter them using hi-tech tools and software to match the customers’ needs. Reach out to Packaging Mania to acquire high-quality boxes that improve your brand’s image and set you apart in the contest.
Sports kits include all sorts of sports equipment, clothing, shoes, joggers, bottles, etc. Custom printed sports boxes are used to pack all of these items and they are popular among both the brands and their clients for many reasons. These boxes offer several marketing and safety benefits that prove profitable for brands. They are versatile and come with various add-on features that raise their market demand. From luxury brands to wholesale retailers, these boxes are used by everyone. Clients also adore these boxes for their safety features that make them worry-free about the intact delivery of their orders. Brands dealing in sports gear can order sports boxes wholesale, enjoy major discounts, and add to their company’s profits.
Sports boxes vary in their layouts and features to accommodate a variety of sports gear. These boxes can be used to pack from small tennis and snooker balls to badminton rackets and cricket bats. They are also used to pack sports clothing, shoes, and other items. These items need secure and long-term storage. With a variety of add-ons, materials, and box-opening features, sports boxes offer different layouts that include:
1. Sports Boxes with a Window
A die-cut window in the sports packaging is the most popular add-on feature. It allows the clients to view the packed items and examine them without opening the box. This way, the brands enable customers to sneak into the box contents without opening it repeatedly for each client. The packed items remain intact and customers also get satisfied with the product before buying. Secondly, the die-cut window feature effectively displays the packed items and adds to their appeal. Thirdly, the effective exhibition of high-quality sports kits entices the customers to check out the brand. This is especially beneficial for wholesale sellers who need to attract buyers and let them check the packed items without the box opening.
2. Die-Cut Sports Boxes
Sports gear comes in a variety of sizes and shapes. To effectively store these items, brands need packaging that can be customized to the sizes and shapes of the equipment. Thus, they use die-cut sports boxes that can be cut to the sizes and shapes of the packed items. Not only sports but these boxes are heavily utilized by the bakery brands as well. The customized size and shape of these boxes don’t allow the items to move freely inside them. The items remain intact throughout the shipping process. Clients can also acquire die-cut logos and place them on the packaging which will add to their luxury appeal.
3. Sleeve Sports Boxes
A sleeve-style sports packaging comes with a drawer opening. This layout features a ribbon to pull out the drawer base or it is pulled out using a thumb. Clients can easily access the packed items placed on the base. Such a layout and feature provides an easy unboxing experience and makes the boxes apt for long-term usage. These boxes are mostly used to pack small items like cricket, tennis, golf, and snooker balls. They also prove beneficial to pack protective sports gear like chin, elbow, and head guards, etc.
Crafting market-based sports packaging boxes requires finesse and precision. There is no one formula for effective packaging as each sports gear has unique packaging needs. Moreover, the packaging colors, designs, and materials are also picked to complement the brand image, market trends, and equipment types. However, a few basic tips must be kept in mind while creating sports boxes. These include:
1. Colors
Using vibrant colors in sports packaging always remains in trend. The designers have to pick and add different colors in the right ratio. These colors must match the logos, emblems, and stickers on the packed items. To give luxury appeal to the boxes, use colors like white, black, sky blue, red, and purple. It's better to pick two main colors and a different color for designs if required. Using fewer colors is vital to give a premium appeal to the packaging.
2. Designs
Sports Boxes can be made stylish by adding minimal or simple designs with bold colors that enhance their look. For example, a football snickers box can have a simple thunderbolt design with a blend of yellow, orange, and red colors. This simple design with these vibrant colors is enough to amplify the box outlook. Investing in advanced printing schemes is vital to acquire high-quality graphics output.
3. Add-ons
The add-on features provide extra convenience and appeal to the boxes. Brands utilize several types of add-on features including:
I. Foil Stamping
This sort of finishing is applied to give a luxury appeal to the packaging. The mechanism includes a shiny foil sheet that is imprinted on the box’s surface by applying pressure and heat. Clients can choose from a wide range of foil sheets to get the desired shiny color outlook on their packaging.
II. Spot UV Finish
Brands apply this high gloss varnish to specific areas on the boxes to make them stand out. The brand name, logo, and trademark are particularly varnished with spot UV to highlight these areas. It is usually applied over a soft-touch or matte lamination that gives an appealing and contrasting outlook.
III. Custom Foams & Paper Inserts
These inserts augment the items’ safety during transit and storage. Sports gears rank among products that need long-term storage. They need packaging that adds to their safety which allows long-term box utility. By adding custom foams and paper inserts, brands can offer error-free shipping. Clients can use these boxes to store their equipment for a long time. The foam and paper inserts tightly pack the items and prevent their free mobility inside the boxes. Customers can also use these boxes to store other items which provide long-term branding hence, raising the brand’s client base.
