The first of our new seasonal themed mini brochures focuses on this most egg-cellent season of Easter. Easter is known for beautiful and colourful packages filled with everything we love; Easter eggs, cute chocolate bunnies and fun gifts for children. The new range is designed to meet a variety of tastes from a box with modern aesthetics to child-friendly vibrant spring packaging. Whether you’re packaging foil wrapped Easter eggs or decorative eggs with piped designs and inclusions, we provide Easter packaging that is sure to catch the eye of the recipient and make your gift even more special. Our packaging range allows you to choose (if desired) an egg with a window or a fully transparent box, product options are available to securely pack orders fulfilled via mail order. Sustainability is a hot topic in packaging, therefore we have clearly listed the recyclability of all elements within the range, opting to be transparent allowing consumers to make an informed decision.
