Custom boxes are a popular choice for businesses looking to differentiate their products from competitors. However, there are many misconceptions about custom boxes that can deter some companies from investing in them. In this article, we'll debunk five common misconceptions about custom boxes.
-
Custom boxes are expensive
One of the most common misconceptions about custom boxes is that they are too expensive for small and medium-sized businesses. While it's true that custom boxes can be more expensive than standard packaging options, the cost is not as prohibitive as some may believe. In fact, many packaging companies offer affordable custom box solutions, and the cost can be further reduced by ordering in bulk. Custom boxes can also help you save money in the long run by reducing damages during shipping, which can be a significant expense for businesses.

Custom boxes are only for big brands
We hear this all the time that custom boxes are only for big brands with large budgets. While it's true that big brands often use custom boxes as part of their branding strategy, smaller businesses can also benefit from them. Custom boxes can help small businesses create a professional image and stand out from competitors. They can also help build brand recognition and customer loyalty, which is essential for businesses of all sizes. Yebo has no minimum order quantities, making us ideal for small and mid-sized companies that can't place big bulk orders. -
Custom boxes are difficult to design
Some businesses may avoid custom boxes because they believe the design process is complicated and time-consuming. However, many packaging companies like Yebo, offer design services and have a team of experienced designers who can help create a custom box that meets your specific needs. Additionally, some offer digital renderings that allow you to see a computer-generated image of the box before you order. Designing a custom box may be more accessible than some may think. -
Custom boxes take too long to produce
Now, this is just ridiculous, people believe it takes too long to produce, which can delay product launches and other business activities. While it's true that custom boxes may take longer to produce than stock packaging options, the production time is not as long as some may think. Many packaging companies have fast turnaround times and can produce custom boxes in as little as a few days. Additionally, if you plan ahead and order in advance, you can avoid any production delays and ensure that your custom boxes are ready when you need them. -
Custom boxes are not eco-friendly
Some may believe that custom boxes are not eco-friendly, but this myth is busted. Many packaging companies offer eco-friendly options for custom boxes, such as recycled materials, and vegetable-based inks. Additionally, custom boxes can be designed to minimize waste and reduce the environmental impact of packaging. Investing in eco-friendly custom boxes can not only benefit the environment but also help build a positive brand image and attract eco-conscious consumers.
These myths are totally busted, custom boxes are an effective way for businesses of all sizes to create a professional image, differentiate their products, and build brand recognition. The common misconceptions about custom boxes can deter some businesses from investing in them, but they are not necessarily true. By working with a reputable packaging company like Yebo, and understanding the benefits of custom boxes, businesses can create an effective packaging solution that meets their specific needs and budget.
