Shrink Sleeve - Product Packaging Design Trend?
Saturday, December 30th, 2006In a trip to Wal-Mart this evening I noticed something was different as I scanned the shelves for groceries. The product packaging on many long-familiar products was different. I even noticed some shelves with old and new product side-by-side where they had just switched to this new type of packaging. Could this obvious shift in product packaging be a graphic design or product packaging trend? I came home to do some research online, and discovered what is called “shrink sleeves” or “full-body shrink sleeves” and decided to blog about it.
