Food packaging design is a comprehensive work, which needs to combine the characteristics of food and the needs of consumers, and at the same time consider factors such as product image and market competition. The following are common food packaging design steps in this field:
Study the market and competition: Understand the packaging forms, materials, shapes, colors and other elements of the target market and competitors, summarize their own highlights and advantages, and provide reference for the subsequent strategy formulation.
Conception of design concept: according to all factors such as product form, trademark, logo, taste, brand value and consumer group, think about innovative packaging design concept and scheme type, such as whether to adopt unique appearance or not, whether to use environmental protection materials, etc.
First draft design: make the first draft of packaging design, produce a variety of alternatives, constantly optimize, modify the size and processing, for sample operation and batch manufacturing.
Packaging laboratory test: simulation experiment and quality evaluation of different packaging products, such as turnover, durability, sealing test, nutritional component test, etc.
Consider digital technology: With the development of science and technology, more and more enterprises have introduced digital technology in packaging design, such as virtual reality and augmented reality. These technologies are helpful to develop the potential market and consumers of packaging design without mass production of experimental products.
Production and quality control: once the package design scheme is determined, the next step is the industrial production of packaging, including material procurement, design decision and production process. In addition, we should pay attention to product safety, hygiene standards and quality management, and carry out strict testing to ensure that packaging and food are scientific, healthy and environmentally friendly.
Marketing: After the packaging is completed, it is necessary to carry out effective marketing strategies and send a unified visual signal, show the products to consumers through publicity, advertising and exquisite packaging, and establish brand awareness and value.
To sum up, a successful food packaging design needs to go through the steps of market and competition research, design concept conception, first draft design, packaging laboratory testing, digital application technology, production and quality monitoring, marketing and promotion. The whole process needs to dig deep into consumers' behavioral psychology and needs, learn from each other's strong points, pay attention to innovation, and design food packaging with market competitiveness.
