In Guangdong, a large part of digital products/3C electronic products are exported, such as some electronic watches, spray, floor sweepers, water replenishers, beauty salons, office/kitchen appliances, etc. For the customization of export color boxes, generally refer to the European and American export standards. Therefore, international quality certification is required for export product packaging. For example, FSC, global safety certification, production certification of export dangerous goods packaging containers, ISO certification, G7 certification, etc.

If the customized packaging design of color boxes and cartons is not qualified, the products will not be exported. If the products are not packaged according to the standard or the materials used do not meet the European and American standards, the products may not be exported. Different packaging forms have different packaging requirements. General export shall be packaged according to the general standards for trade export. Special export goods shall be packaged according to the special requirements of customers.

It has been studied by some institutions that the potential cultural sense of belonging that color can represent will affect people’s purchase decisions. Designers should know the consumer, their preferences and taboos, and their historical origins. It is helpful for product sales. Different regions have the same color and different aesthetic feelings. This is the difference. This is why some packaging products produced by manufacturers that meet the G7 certification can be more easily favored by customers than those produced by ordinary manufacturers.

At present, we still have some cases of non-standard packaging. For example, our use of symbols and models reflects our packaging differences. For example, “bat” means luck in China, while in some countries, bat represents terror/death. Therefore, when designing packaging, it is necessary to clarify the taboos of consumers in the importing country to avoid misunderstanding, even causing disputes and affecting sales. It is unprofessional to use words and symbols incorrectly. This will lead to consumers’ doubts about our products and poor image.

In order to reduce this difference, it is suggested that color box and carton customization businesses should find manufacturers with export design experience to package products. Manufacturers with a series of export experience are very familiar with the export process. If you do not know this well, you need such manufacturers to give you advice and help you do this part of the work well. HugPak Packaging has many years of design experience in packaging.
