I’ve been researching how product visibility influences buying behavior, especially in retail and e-commerce. One thing that keeps coming up is how custom window packaging for retail products helps customers feel more confident before they buy. Being able to actually see the product seems to reduce hesitation, especially for food, cosmetics, and gift items.

From what I’ve observed, window cut-outs combined with sturdy materials work better than fully transparent plastic alternatives. They keep the packaging premium while still offering a clear view of the product. Placement of the window also matters a poorly positioned window can weaken structure or distract from branding.

Some packaging suppliers are doing this really well. For example, I came across Kwick Packaging, which focuses on window packaging options that balance visibility, protection, and branding. Their approach made me rethink how window packaging can be used beyond just aesthetics.

Curious to hear from others here have you seen higher engagement or sales when using window packaging compared to fully closed boxes?
