Wrap Rage

Wrap Rage

It’s Christmas morning, the children have been up since the early hours. They’re keen to get downstairs and see what’s under the tree. Presents are eagerly unwrapped and the toy they’ve asked Santa for is revealed. What joy! What delight! Just the most complicated packaging to get through (and a hunt for batteries) before it can be played with.

It’s not just children’s toy packaging that causes frustration: tamper proof seals, jars that seem to have had their lids superglued on and boxes that have been wrapped with so much tape that you can’t find your way in, all result in what’s been termed ‘wrap rage’.

Scissors, knives, Stanley knives and razor blades have all been used to open packaging. Not only do these present a risk to the user, they could also damage the goods inside.

No company wants to be remembered for frustrating its customers, so the packaging industry has been encouraging brands to invest in inclusive design and accessible solutions. Just a small change can make all the difference when it comes to opening a package.

Accessible Packaging Solutions

As a cardboard box manufacturer, Aylesbury Box Company is keen to work with companies to create packaging solutions to meet their requirements. When it comes to avoiding wrap rage, one example is to produce retail packaging with tear strips. The box is robust during delivery, but it opens with ease with a pull on the tear strip.

We also offer self-sealing strips on e-commerce packaging, so boxes can be held tightly shut without the need for excessive use of tape. We produce cardboard box inserts which hold goods firmly in place during transportation and delivery so those fiddly cable ties can be avoided.

Not only do these solutions help the customer to open the packaging, they also help to speed up the packaging process for the manufacturer. Promoting simple packaging solutions, which improve logistics and the customer experience, is at the heart of our work as a cardboard box manufacturer. Can we help make life a little easier for your customers?
