This is important for established companies but is even more important for new brands. If you’re looking to launch a new product soon, pay particular attention to how you address peoples’ anxieties and fears.

Product packaging will need to be designed for sus- tainability: In addition to ravaging through populations around the world, the coronavirus has had a major impact on our planet. As people stop reeling from pandemic-in- duced shock and daily life finds new rhythm, environmen- tal awareness is re-emerging. Product packaging needs to adapt quickly to counteract the damage being done. Food delivery and online shopping prevalence will likely remain high for quite some time. This makes it more important than ever for packaging companies to prioritize more sustainable packaging. There are two major path- ways to explore. Packaging Material The first option is to use biodegradable packaging ma- terials. In addition to recycled and recyclable corrugated containerboard and folding cartons, biodegradable and sustainable packaging options like bioplastics, corn foam, and mushroom-based packaging are now available.
