To reinvent one is not easy at all. To change ourselves is not easy at all. To stop doing what we used to do by now is difficult. To start doing what we were not doing until now is something strange. Change has never been easy for humankind. If we go back into the past, we will come to know that most of the populations of their times had always been resisting against the waves of change. However, positive changes or the changes that deal with the betterment of the humanity eventually prevail across. Similarly, earlier on the beginning of the wave of COVID-19, we were not in favor of living away from one another, avoiding hugging one another and refraining to keep washing hands repeatedly but gradually, as soon as, we come to know that social distancing and washing hands is necessary for the common cause of common good, we started practicing it. However, those who are in the field of Custom Packaging and use to make custom printed cardboard packaging boxes with logo of different types like custom retail boxes, custom wholesale boxes, custom display boxes or custom gabble boxes etc. have already been practicing such health friendly principles. These boxes are already facilitating the users or those who buy these to pack their items because these boxes keep the products packed inside from dirt or pollution. These boxes keep the packed items clean and protect the items from the attack of unseen germs present in the air, on the surfaces of different things as well as on the hands of those who may grip these boxes. Hence, these cardboard made containers enable us to buy clean of germ free products for our daily use. Thus, these are rightly playing an active role in post COVID-19 era in keeping ourselves safe from the attack of this toxic disease. Moreover, these customized containers with logo also enable the brand owners, who make millions of products and then pack almost all of these in these containers, to transport their items successfully from their production houses to the wholesalers’ warehouses and from these warehouses to retail outlets and from these outlets to the houses or offices of the end users. To make this journey of packed products possible during these days without letting these to be contaminated with toxic germs like corona virus is not less than a miracle really. For sure, if it is happening amid the corona age then all credit goes to the custom printed cardboard made packaging boxes or custom Kraft packaging containers.

Symbolic Role of Product Packaging

Apart from the discussed above actual role in protecting the packed items from being contaminated with the attack of deadly corona virus, custom packaging stuff is also playing a healthy and effective symbolic role. These boxes are made of cardboard. Cardboard packaging has helped the world a lot in making it free from pollution. In the times, when these boxes were not being used for packaging, plastic bags were widely in use across the world as packaging stuff but these bags were not decomposed even after remaining buried under the soil for thousands of years. Thus, these were becoming a cause of soil’s infertility. These were also polluting the water reservoirs. On the other hand, cardboard or Kraft paper made custom boxes are decomposed within six to eight weeks after being buried under the soil. Thus, these boxes have played an integral part in decreasing land pollution. These are also easily dissolved in water with a few days. Hence, the residue of these custom packaging boxes made of cardboard paper does not cause any harm to creatures living in water reservoirs like oceans and rivers, etc. Thus, the virtue of paper packaging boxes, which it exercises by keeping our atmosphere free of pollution, conveys a silent message to us, the humans, to play our part in making our surroundings hygienic. If we try to change our habit of creating and spreading mess everywhere and make it a rule to adopt health and hygiene friendly lifestyle, we can definitely defeat corona like germs very soon. If we try to reconstruct our habits and make our surroundings clean, keep washing hands repeatedly, especially after touching anyone or anything, we can protect ourselves from becoming prey to the toxic viral diseases. Hence, we can easily understand if we too like to become friendly with our surroundings like paper made boxes we will be safer than now.

Custom Box Design

As we have to reconstruct our habits to make these health and hygiene friendly, similarly we also have to try to redesign our packaging boxes in order to make these safer than before. If any of custom boxes has any side open in order to look beautiful or glamorous, it should be reshaped in order to protect the packed product from being contaminated. For instance, usually we buy popcorn's poured in the boxes with one open end. These boxes enable us to keep eating popcorn's without any inconvenience even while walking or working but the corona era is stressing on the need of covered boxes especially for edibles and generally for all types of things in order to protect us from becoming prey to any dangerous disease.

Packaging Wholesalers

Beside those who make product packaging, those who use to deal in the wholesale of cardboard Boxes and deal directly and closely with those who buy these boxes in order to pack their products, as well as with those who use to run retail outlets should also play an active role. They should advise the product manufacturers to buy only those containers that can cover their items from all sides in order to keep these safe from the attack of any toxic germ. If all of us will be more vigilant and more responsible and fulfilling our respective duties, we will definitely be capable to defeat the enemies of humanity no matter these are viruses, wars or anything else.
