The first touch point when delivering goods to recipients is the packaging. E-commerce packaging represents your company and your brand from the first moment on. The customer also associates the quality of the content with this. Besides product production and advertising effectiveness, with the right e-commerce packaging you also have the possibility to offer your customers an unforgettable unpacking experience. This is because a customer is seldom more willing to absorb brand messages than in the emotional moment when he happily receives his product. Attention-getting and individual design, top class printing quality, sustainable materials or personal address make an impression on the recipient. Use e-commerce packaging for enduring customer loyalty and branding. Do you want to positively influence the expectations of your customers?
The e-commerce sector has become increasingly important over time and there is a lot of potential in a market with such considerable growth. It is therefore all the more important that the goods ordered arrive with the packaging intact and, above all, securely sealed at the end customer. To ensure this, THIMM offers various secure closure options for packaging. THIMM's packaging with security closure guarantees a secure initial opening and protects against plagiarism or tampering. Since the closure is visibly destroyed when the packaging is opened, the end customer can immediately see whether unauthorized third parties have gained access to the product.

E-commerce packaging must be able to withstand the stresses of the entire logistics chain and permanently ensure sufficient stability and comprehensive product protection.
You can send products safe and protected with integrated fixation in e-commerce packaging. Such innovative fixation functions of corrugated cardboard or multi-materials adapt flexibly and safely to your products. Thanks to their design, these can be variably used for different product sizes and shapes. This increases the material efficiency and the degree of volume usage of your e-commerce packaging, which in turn means cost savings for you.
Packaging in e-commerce offers outstanding possibilities for offering the recipient added value: a packaging design combined with an innovative design can be directly used multiple times. Commin examples of such multiple uses of e-commerce packaging are return or gift packages. Another use, for example, packaging as a shelf or as a toy, can be generated with clever packaging designs.
In order to create own added value, design can be used to create many printable surfaces. Advertising messages, measures for brand binding, contests and promotions, etc. can be placed on them.
In our KARTONARA® online shop you will find standardised e-commerce packaging for shipping as a parcel, small package, consignment or letter. This packaging is suitable for products of various sizes and shapes.
You can also purchase accessories that add value to e-commerce packaging online: these include, for example, bubble pack and air cushions, packing chips, packing blankets and wrapping tissue, adhesive tape and sealing materials.
With microchips, electronic app-based codes or printed electronics, there are endless possibilities for making packaging intelligent and digital. For example, intelligent e-commerce packaging makes a gap-free track and trace of delivery chains in real time possible. Because each code is only available once, anti-tampering protection is also provided.
Or you can use e-commerce packaging to establish digital storytelling for effective customer address. In this way you can establish a unique and new digital world around your brand: from virtually expanded product simulations or links to similar or complementary products. Forwarding to digital communities offers possibilities for an intensive exchange of experience.
With digitalised e-commerce packaging, you create innovative differentiation and at the same time offer recipients unique added value:
Food, medical and pharmaceuticals products are temperature-sensitive. Temperature-controlled e-commerce packaging is suitable for ensuring the shipping of frozen and refrigerated products at stable temperatures:
In combination with cooling elements, such e-commerce packaging regulates temperatures during shipping. Combination with unrefrigerated products in the same e-commerce packaging is possible. E-commerce packaging offers individual temperature safety for your products over many hours.
In order to simulate realistic conditions during shipping, tests also include the drop test for e-commerce packaging. This test simulates the free fall of e-commerce packaging on edges, corners and surfaces. To this purpose, the e-commerce packaging is filled with the products and dropped from a defined height.
There are transport simulations under climatic conditions to test braking processes and transshipment stresses. In the process, handling and shipping by truck, ship, rail or air are simulated with the e-commerce packaging. A so-called vertical vibration test provides information on the stresses on the e-commerce packaging and the product.
E-commerce packaging is a central element of brand communication. It is part of brand staging, promotes brand retention and contributes to brand loyalty.
This makes e-commerce packaging a strong communications channel with the recipient. With an attractive packaging design in top printing quality, the packaging transports your brand and increases the value of your products.
Digital printing also offers you the best advantages for extracting the greatest potential from your e-commerce packaging:
The theme of "traceability" also plays an important role in e-commerce with regard to food. With the latest digital printing technology, invisible codes can be integrated into the printed image of the e-commerce packaging to this purpose. These provide a lot of information and offer many advantages:
