Holographic packaging can add shelf appeal and draw consumers’ attention. The latest advances in film coating and manufacturing technology have opened the door for even more innovative opportunities for embossed holographic materials used in packaging,
“Manufacturers have the considerable challenge of capturing customer attention and maintaining or growing market share, so the eye-catching and creative appeal of holograms helps to meet these challenges by giving products a highly distinctive decorative edge over competitors,” says Glenn Wood of the International Hologram Manufacturers Association.
