The size and shape of different products need to be taken into consideration when designing folding carton packaging to ensure that the packaging can effectively protect the product, improve transportation efficiency, and provide a good user experience.

Designers need to understand the size and shape of the product. Use accurate measuring tools (such as rulers, protractors, etc.) to measure the length, width, and height of the product. For irregularly shaped products, it may be necessary to measure multiple points to obtain accurate dimensions. Irregularly shaped products such as curves, protrusions or recessed parts require special attention and make sure their dimensions are taken into account. This may require the use of soft measuring tools (such as soft rulers) or 3D scanning technology to obtain accurate data. If the product has additional parts, such as handles, buttons or hooks, their dimensions also need to be taken into account. These additional components may affect the design and size of the package. When considering product size, you also need to consider the space inside the box. In addition to making sure the product can fit inside, you also need to leave some space for padding or protective layers to provide extra protection.

Once the size and shape data of the product are obtained, the designer can start designing the folding carton packaging. The following are key factors to consider during the design process:

Box Size: The size of the box should be large enough to accommodate the product and provide adequate space. Make sure the product fits easily into the box and doesn't move around too much inside the box to prevent damage during shipping. Minimize the size of the packaging box as much as possible to reduce unnecessary waste of space and materials. Optimize the design of the packaging box to match the size of the product as much as possible while maintaining adequate protection and support. Considering that products may be stacked or stacked during transportation and storage, the size of the designed boxes should be able to be easily stacked or stacked to save space and improve transportation efficiency. Taking into account the weight of the product, ensure that the material and structure of the packaging box can bear the weight of the product to avoid cracking or deformation of the box during transportation. The size of the box directly affects the shipping cost. Try to design the packaging box as compact as possible to reduce the space and cost required for transportation.

Internal Padding: For products with irregular shapes, internal padding may need to be added to protect the product from damage. The filling can be foam, bubble wrap, cardboard, etc., which can cushion shocks and reduce collisions, providing additional protection.

Structural design: Design the structure of the box according to the shape and weight of the product. For example, for long products, you can design a rectangular box and add additional supports at both ends of the box to prevent the product from bending or being squeezed during transportation.

Opening design: Considering the loading and unloading process of the product, design the opening at the appropriate location of the box. Openings should be designed to make it easy for users to load and remove products, and to ensure that products do not slip out from the center or edges.

Foldability: Since it is a foldable carton package, the convenience of folding must be taken into consideration when designing. Make sure the folding structure of the design is simple and clear, not easily damaged, and can be easily folded and unfolded when packing and unpacking.

Sustainability: Consider using sustainable paper materials and minimizing the amount of material used in packaging to reduce environmental impact and increase packaging sustainability.

Labels and instructions: Add appropriate labels and instructions to the package, including product name, weight, size, instructions for use and other information, so that users can understand the product and use the package correctly.
