Why Your Holiday Packaging Game Needs to Start Now, Not Later

It’s August… But We’re Already Wrapping Presents (Kind Of)
Okay, we get it. It’s August. The sun is blazing, your iced coffee is sweating harder than you are, and Mariah Carey hasn’t even defrosted yet.
But in the world of holiday packaging design? The holidays are basically tomorrow.
If you’re in the business of selling anything from small-batch hot sauce to luxury skincare to artisanal dog sweaters, your Q4 sales are about to pop off. But only if your packaging shows up to the party dressed in its holiday best.
Let’s unwrap the why (and the how) of getting your holiday packaging locked in ASAP.
Holiday Packaging = Shelf Appeal x 100
Studies show that seasonal packaging ideas can increase sales by up to 30%. Yep, all it takes is a sprinkle of festive magic and boom, your product is suddenly the main character in someone’s shopping cart.
But here’s the catch: If you wait until November, it’s already too late.
From design and approvals to printing, delivery, and shelf drop, packaging takes time, especially when you want it done right. That’s where we come in.
Labels That Sleigh
Holiday labels are your brand’s secret weapon. Our holiday label printing turns your regular SKU into a limited-edition packaging moment. Think:
- Embossed snowflakes
- Foil accents that shimmer like tinsel
- A cozy palette that says gift me, I'm festive
Whether you’re going full holiday glam or keeping it subtly seasonal, we’ve got the materials, finishes, and vibes to match.
Short runs? No problem.Custom die-cuts? Love that for you. Waterproof for peppermint-scented bath bombs? Say less.
Folding Cartons That Go All Out
Imagine your product sitting under a tree, glowing softly by candlelight, looking cute cute in a custom holiday box. Now make it real.
From tuck boxes to sleeve wraps to custom holiday packaging like branded holiday boxes, our custom folding cartons are here to make your product giftable. Think:
- Premium unboxing moments
- Spot gloss, soft touch, and metallic ink flexes
And yes, we can do it all with tight turnarounds and that white-glove Altro experience.
Let’s Get This Sleigh on the Road
The holiday season isn’t just about boosting sales; it’s about brand storytelling, emotional connection, and giving your product a moment to sparkle. And like any good glow-up, it starts with packaging that tells a story.
So while your iced coffee melts... start thinking about hot cocoa. Because holiday packaging doesn’t wait. Whether you’re looking for luxury packaging for holidays or sustainable holiday packaging, we’ve got you.
