Generally speaking, packaging is a form of ' packaging and packaging ' of items. People usually think that the act of directly handing over items to others is impolite. Therefore, since ancient times, people always use paper, cloth and other materials to package items and then hand them over to others. With the development of the times, people are no longer satisfied with the performance only from the simple packaging, but pay more attention to the emotional aspect, so that the recipient can feel a very delicate and meticulous emotional factor from the packaging. Nowadays, packaging has become a form of expression that can reflect people 's emotional expression.
Packaging is more conducive to the preservation of items while protecting internal items. Since ancient times, people have used wooden boxes, cans, bottles and other containers to package items. At the same time, the folk also created many items packaging technology, such as bamboo slips, wooden barrels, ropes, paper as a packaging tool, rice bran, wood chips on eggs, fruit packaging, etc. In recent years, packaging containers formed by plastic products have been widely used, and human beings have also developed from manual packaging to machine packaging.
In today 's life, candy, medicine and other small commodities are more often packaged in the form of one grain ; the transportation is also more popular in the form of cardboard box packaging.
In food, the protection of quality is very important. Therefore, in order to reflect the characteristics of this aspect, the current food packaging is generally in the form of cans, glass bottles, and plastic bags.
The initial function of packaging is to facilitate the carrying, storage, protection and loss prevention of items. With the development of the times, people 's understanding of packaging has also changed, most obviously reflected in the decoration of the surface of the items. For decoration, in today 's packaging has played a big role :
It is conducive to the value embodiment of inner goods ;
conducive to the distinction between goods :
Is conducive to the promotion of goods.
In view of this, now people in the packaging performance, most of the energy is used in its surface decoration.
However, if too much energy is used in the form of packaging, its functionality will be reduced, and the comprehensive value of the product will also be reduced. If it is food packaging, should first focus on the health aspects ; if it is a commodity packaging for children, then its packaging box is likely to become a child 's mouth, taking into account this, its materials and printing ink are in the production must focus on consideration. Therefore, it is very one-sided to think that packaging is the decoration of the whole appearance, or just a container of goods.
