At Packwins, we’re constantly amazed by the innovative ways our clients use our cardboard displays to elevate their brands. From eye-catching retail setups to interactive event displays, cardboard offers endless creative possibilities. In this blog, we’re spotlighting a few of the most unique and inspiring ways our customers have used our displays to enhance their marketing efforts.
1. Interactive Pop-Up Shops
One of our clients, a popular cosmetics brand, used a series of custom-designed cardboard displays to create an immersive pop-up experience. These displays were not just for product placement—they featured built-in QR codes that led customers to an exclusive online offer. The display allowed shoppers to scan the code, watch tutorial videos, and unlock a special discount. This mix of physical and digital created an engaging experience, drawing in tech-savvy shoppers and driving online sales.
2. Seasonal Promotions with a Twist
For a global beverage brand, our cardboard displays became a fun centerpiece for their seasonal promotion. Using bright colors and bold graphics, we created stackable, modular displays that showcased their limited-edition holiday packaging. These displays were designed to be easily assembled and reassembled to match the store layout, making it simple for the team to change the display throughout the promotion. Customers loved the festive, limited-time setup, and sales skyrocketed during the campaign.
3. Sustainable Packaging Showcase
A client in the eco-friendly products sector used our cardboard displays to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability. We crafted an intricate display that mimicked the look of a tree, using recycled cardboard to showcase their range of biodegradable packaging. The display not only highlighted their products but also told the story of their environmental impact. This unique, eye-catching display resonated with their environmentally-conscious customer base, reinforcing their brand message and boosting customer loyalty.
4. Retail Store Redesigns
A leading fashion brand partnered with us to redesign their in-store displays for a store renovation. They wanted to create a fresh, modern look without going over budget. Using a series of minimalist, sleek countertop displays and large, branded floor units, we helped them transform their store environment. The modularity of the cardboard displays allowed for flexibility, making it easy to update the look of the store as new collections arrived. The redesign boosted foot traffic and sales, and the brand was able to achieve its goals without the need for expensive fixtures.
5. Event Activation Displays
Our client, a fitness equipment brand, needed a creative way to showcase their new products at a major trade show. They used our large cardboard displays to create a dynamic, interactive setup. The displays included product demos, virtual fitness challenges, and live social media feeds. This interactive experience drew attendees in, creating buzz around their brand. The lightweight and portable nature of the displays made transportation and setup at the event easy, without sacrificing visual impact.
6. Pop Culture Collaborations
Collaborating with a well-known pop culture brand, one of our clients created limited-edition cardboard displays featuring their favorite characters. The displays were designed as fun, larger-than-life cutouts that encouraged customers to take photos. These interactive displays were placed in high-traffic retail locations, creating a buzz on social media as fans shared their photos. The fun, shareable nature of these displays turned them into viral marketing tools, driving both foot traffic and online engagement.
7. Point-of-Sale Power
A leading snack food brand used our countertop displays to boost impulse purchases at checkout. These displays were placed right next to the register, perfectly positioned to catch customers’ attention while they waited in line. The bold, snack-themed graphics paired with easy access to grab-and-go products led to increased sales during the promotion. The compact design allowed the brand to utilize valuable retail space efficiently without taking up too much room in busy stores.
8. Interactive Window Displays
A high-end tech brand used our cardboard displays to create interactive window displays in shopping malls. These displays featured cutouts of their latest products, along with a touchscreen interface embedded within the cardboard structure. Customers could engage with the display to explore the features of the products and even schedule demos. The innovation drew curious shoppers in, who were captivated by the blend of technology and sustainable design.
