                          technology will play a crucial role
                     in future packaging production. This
                     technology allows for more flexible and
                     creative packaging designs. It also helps
                     reduce production costs in the design
                     and production processes. Moreover,
                     3D printing can produce complex
                     packaging that differentiates products
                     from  competitors,  such  as  unique
                     designs tailored to specific target groups
                     or highly durable packaging.

                     products will focus on protecting goods
                     from  damage  during  transportation.
                     Using strong and flexible materials can
                     help prevent packaging from breaking
                     or bending easily.  Therefore,
                     manufacturers must design packaging
                     that is durable, biodegradable, flexible,
                     and resistant to the rigors of shipping.
                     Such features are essential for packaging
                     intended for E-commerce.
                          Packaging that
                          Emphasizes  Creativity
                          In 2025, packaging will not only
                     focus on efficiency but also on appealing
                     to consumers through creative designs.
                     Packaging will be developed to clearly
                     convey brand stories using distinctive
                     colors, shapes, or formats. For instance,
                     packaging that can be repurposed as
                     decorative items after use, etc.
