Portable factories could revolutionize packaging design!

Those in the media and publishing industries remember how desktop publishing changed the game in the 1980s. Suddenly, it was no longer necessary to invest in massive (and massively expensive) printing facilities in order to publish newsletters, newspapers and magazines. The packaging design industry may be headed for a similarly seismic shift with “additive manufacturing,” or, as it’s better known, “3-D printing.”

These printers can make plastic objects—such as plastic handles, plastic hangers and many other display items that Allen Field custom manufactures on a daily basis—large and small for a minimal cost—as low as $500, in fact. The ability to produce these types of objects on demand is a boon for Allen Field and will allow us to dramatically expand the offerings we provide to clients!

At Allen Field, we are eager to assist you with all your packaging design needs and to provide you an attractive and cost-effective way to display the products you sell. To learn more about Allen Field, contact us here!

At Allen Field, we let you try it before you buy it!

Samples just aren’t for the food court at your local BJ’s or Costco! At Allen Field, we are firm believers in educating clients about the products they are interested in buying. With that in mind, we offer samples upon request to those with whom we are discussing a custom manufacturing product.

Providing samples saves time and money for both Allen Field and our clients. It is far better, and far less expensive, to engage in a bit of trial and error involving a sample or two than to produce something in bulk that doesn’t meet the client’s specifications. Get in touch with us today so that we can begin constructing your sample!

But how should that sign be displayed? A retailer wants something inexpensive and unobtrusive, yet also sturdy and immediately noticeable.

3-D displays are on their way!

The staff at Allen Field is always looking for ways to modernize the packaging and packaging design experience. And one few innovations are as likely to positively impact packaging design in the coming years is 3-D printing.

It only makes sense—3-D movies are all the rage, so why not bring 3-D to store displays worldwide? The idea of 3-D displays have already been dubbed “DDM” (Direct Digital Manufacturing) or “additive manufacturing.” And with just seconds to grab the attention of shoppers as they stroll down the aisles, it will be imperative for retailers and manufacturers to take advantage of 3-D displays as soon as they are available—which will be sooner than you think!

Stock up on POP display aids at Allen Field!

Few display aids are more vital to the sales of the products they display than hooks, clips and hangers. Not only do these display aids have to be sturdy and durable enough to keep the product visible and aloft—nobody’s going to buy anything that’s fallen to the ground—but they must also be aesthetically appealing in order to grab the attention of a potential customer.

Allen Field produces many variations of hooks, clips and hangers. We can also work with clients on custom manufactured display aids that meet specific requirements. No matter what kind of display aid you choose from us, rest assured it is made up of the best plastics and processes on the market.

Young and old alike embrace ultra-thin packaging for different reasons

Shoppers of all ages are in agreement: Ultra-thin packaging is the way to go. But you might be surprised to learn that the philosophies of shoppers differ according to age.

A study of shoppers in the United Kingdom by Canadean Consumer revealed that younger consumers are more enthusiastic about ultra-thing packaging. According to the study, 21 percent of those between the ages of 25 and 34 seek out light weight packaging, while 17 percent of people in the 18-24 demographic do so.

However, younger shoppers are more likely to purchase products in ultra-thin packaging because they believe it will save them money. Older shoppers, meanwhile prefer to buy products displayed in ultra-thin packaging because they believe doing so benefits the environment.

You can join the ranks of retailers selling products in ultra-thin packaging by working with Allen Field, where we are eager to assist you with all your packaging design needs and to provide you an attractive and cost-effective way to display the products you sell.
