Key Market Trends
Paper Packaging Accounted For Significant Market Share in Smartphone
– According to the International Telecommunication Union, it is estimated that 4.30 billion people, representing around 58.7% of the global population, use mobile phones. Surging demand for secured packaging of mobile phone accessories, such as earphones, chargers, and USB cables, is providing a significant momentum to the global mobile phone packaging market growth.
– Smartphones come in their original packaging from their manufacturers. Most of the smartphones are packed in corrugated or cardboard boxes. These are a special type of materials that provide the required protection to the phones packed inside.
– Rigid boxes (also called set-up boxes) are sturdier and do not fold or collapse as folding cartons do. They are used when the product is heavy and in need of extra support. An iPhone box is an example of a rigid box.
– The iPhone packaging is a form of paper over board packaging. The walls of the box are made of super thick chipboard. The outside is a soft touch wrapping paper. Further, the molds are made of heat-molded polystyrene.
– For iPhone, the box mostly is made of a thick fiberboard (paperboard) greater than 24 mils, and the plastic used is PS (polystyrene). Thin plastic components that are flexible are most likely LLDPE or LDPE.
– Most phone boxes are designed to hide the contents of the box, and the phone one just bought. Players are continuously innovating new designs for attracting customers. For instance, RAZR’s, on the other hand, is one of the most stylish boxes. It’s designed to stand up and comes fully unfolded and ready for the user to pull out. The box features a minimalistic aesthetic that is incredibly appealing.
