In anticipation of the year 2024, we present a curated selection of packaging designs poised to captivate audiences worldwide.
1. Packaging Designs Carrying a Message
Design transcends mere aesthetics and functionality; it becomes a powerful medium for conveying messages. These might encompass sustainability initiatives, advocating fair prices for agricultural laborers, or embodying a brand's fundamental values. The shape and implementation of secondary packaging also wield significant influence. Increasingly, consumers scrutinize packaging designs through the lens of sustainability, posing questions such as: Can this packaging be repurposed in the future? What narrative does it narrate about the company's core beliefs? DADI, in their ingenuity, has capitalized on these packaging industry trends and concepts by crafting bespoke storage tins designed for endless reuse, showcasing tinplate—a choice material for infinite recyclability, underscoring the brand's commitment to sustainability.
2. Packaging Trends 2024: The Rise of Cut-Outs and Windows
Anticipated to dominate the packaging landscape in 2024, the incorporation of 'cut-outs' or windows into bespoke packaging emerges as a prominent design trend.
This innovative approach offers multifaceted benefits: it tantalizes consumers with a preview of the product, adds an intriguing element of visual interest and texture, and, depending on its design and placement, paves the way for packaging to embark on a second life. Take for instance, the enchanting Liz Earle tins, ingeniously designed to transform into lanterns. When illuminated by a candle within, the cut-outs surrounding the heart shape shimmer like a swarm of fireflies, setting the tone for beauty packaging trends that blend aesthetics with practicality. This dual functionality ensures that these packaging pieces become cherished home decor, retaining their charm and presence for years to come.

Packaging Design, engaging all senses, particularly sight and touch, is paramount. At Tinplate, we understand the irresistible urge to pick up and feel an exquisitely crafted tin. Strategic use of debossing and embossing techniques elevates the tactile experience, making premium tin packaging a delight to hold.
Current packaging trends lean towards creating earthy and rocky textures, fostering a connection to nature and encouraging environmental stewardship. These textures don't have to be intricate; with clever color schemes and designs, even a simple crack can evoke the look and feel of soil or stone.
Numbers are also playing a pivotal role in branding, whether representing a significant anniversary, optimal consumption time, or emphasizing weight and portion size. Island Chocolate's tin designs, featuring the chocolate percentage prominently displayed, are a testament to this trend. The eye-catching numerals authenticate the product, while precise printing and embossing showcase the actual size of chocolate buttons, instilling confidence in customers and making the anticipation of opening the exquisite tin all the more enticing.
