Building consumer trust through packaging
Packaging plays a very important role in the storage, display, and administration of pharmaceutical products. If the packaging is robust and secure, this indicates that the manufacturer goes to great lengths to protect the product and implies a similar standard of care for the consumer. The packaging needs to be tamper-proof and child-proof yet easy for people with disabilities or arthritis to open.
For beauty products – such as perfumes, fragrances, body and skin care products – packaging design is a deciding factor in a consumer’s purchasing decision. The design needs to reflect the brand’s identity and stand out on the crowded shelves of retail stores. An iF Design Award in this category indicates that the manufacturer understands the relationship of trust they must maintain with their consumer.
