When deciding on the best packaging options for your product, there are many factors to think about, from product visibility to the size of the packaging around your product. Clamshell packaging is a great, versatile option to consider and can be used for an assortment of items, ranging from produce to electronics. Faro Industries in Rochester, NY, explains why clamshell packaging can be the best choice for your business.

Here are the 3 reasons clamshell packaging simply can’t be beaten:

• Clear Materials: One of the biggest benefits of clamshell packaging is that the clear plastic materials used in the construction let customers view your product at every angle. This adds immensely to shelf appeal, as customers know exactly what they’re getting. For safety, especially with electronics, a secondary seal can be added along with the usual closing mechanism, which deters theft or tampering.
• Space-Saving: Clamshell packaging provides a form-fitting packaging option around your product. There is very little wasted space and there is no excess bulk around your product or in their displays. This helps your product’s visibility in retail stores; your product will save space and be easy to view for potential buyers.
• Money Saving: The thermoforming procedure used to make clamshell packaging is cost efficient, due in large part to the packaging’s single-piece construction. The process also uses a single tool, making production quick and simple.
