50 Creative Product Packaging Design Examples

Product packaging design is one of the most important aspects of marketing. When a consumer goes to a supermarket or a store, he does not see an innovative product. What he sees is the packaging design. In fact, the majority of buying decisions are made in front of the shelf.  Therefore, having an attractive and unique, but at the same time, practical product packaging design is, therefore, a key competitive advantage for manufacturers and retailers.

Unique logos, unusual shapes, bright colors, striking text or typography, and correct use of textures are among the elements that usually catch the attention of consumers. The growing awareness of consumers about global warming and other environmental problems also impacted on how manufacturers package their products. In fact, a lot of them have started to shift to recyclable or recycled materials for their product packaging design. Biodegradable materials such as paper and pulp are also becoming a popular trend among producers in the packaging industry.

In this roundup, therefore, we are featuring 50 product packaging design examples to inspire designers like you just in case you are working on a similar project. Some or most of these product packaging designs have been recognized in the Pentawards, a worldwide competition exclusively devoted to packaging design.
