When it comes to packaging, what’s inside the box matters just as much as the outside. A thoughtfully designed interior can protect your product, enhance the unboxing experience, and showcase your brand’s attention to detail.
1. Understand the Purpose of Interior Customization
Before you start designing, ask yourself what the interior needs to do:
Protection: Does the product need cushioning or compartments to prevent damage?
Presentation: Will the customer see your product as soon as they open the box?
Branding: Do you want to add messaging, logos, or visuals inside?
Clear goals will guide your interior design choices and avoid unnecessary costs.
2. Use Inserts for Structure and Safety
Inserts are the most common way to customize interiors. Popular options include:
Corrugated inserts: Ideal for heavier items or shipping fragile goods
Foam inserts: Great for electronics, glassware, or luxury items
Paperboard inserts: Lightweight and perfect for retail or cosmetics
Inserts help keep products snug, separated, and damage-free in transit — especially in Custom Shipping Boxes.
3. Add Printed Interiors
Want to surprise and delight your customer? Print inside the box with:
Brand slogans or thank-you messages
QR codes for offers or instructions
Vibrant designs that match your exterior branding
Printed interiors can turn a basic box into a premium brand experience.
4. Consider Sustainability
Eco-conscious brands can customize interiors while staying green:
Use recyclable or biodegradable materials
Opt for paper inserts over plastic
Use soy-based inks for interior printing
At The Packaging World, we offer sustainable customizations that align with your values and your budget.
5. Design for Efficiency
Custom interiors don’t have to be complicated. Smart designs can:
Speed up packing times
Reduce need for bubble wrap or filler
Fit multiple product sizes in one insert
Work with a packaging expert (like us!) to find the right balance between structure, cost, and convenience.
