| Shrink Sleeves

~ by Nic Neustaedter, think4D Accounts Manager

The world of candles is ablaze with creativity, and packaging plays a pivotal role in capturing attention and enticing customers.  Whether you’re an established candle brand or just getting started, here are some captivating ideas to make the shrink sleeves on your candles stand out!

FOILS – FOR SHIMMER AND SHINE

Foils are like jewelry for your candles.  They add an extra layer of elegance and allure! 

  • Shimmer and Shine: Foils catch the light, creating a mesmerizing effect.
  • Luxurious and High-End: Foil accents elevate your candle’s perceived value.
  • Coloured Foils:  Print over the foil to achieve stunning hues.  Think holographic, metallic, or even money-inspired foils.

RAISED UV (HIGH-BUILD) – FOR TEXTURE AND TACTILE DELIGHT

Raised UV is the rising star in candle packaging! 

  • Texture and Feel:  Picture a method where raised areas are applied selectively to your artwork.  It adds depth and tactile interest.
  • Stand Out: In a saturated market, your candle will not only smell divine but also feel unique when customers pick it up.

GLITTER AND PEARLESCENCE – FOR SPARKLE AND ALLURE

Glitter isn’t just for craft projects!  It’s also a secret weapon for candle labels.

  • Eye-Catching: Glitter draws the eye, making your product practically pop off the shelf.
  • Attract Customers:  Who can resist a glittering candle?  It’s like magic in a jar!

RUB AND SMELL – FOR ENGAGING THE SENSES

While not necessarily the most functional for candle labels, it’s a fun option for those who love the candle experience! Imagine a candle combined with a think4D sleeve that takes you on a sensory adventure!

These trends only scratch the surface of so many possibilities! If you’re ready to ignite your candle brand, let’s chat…together we’ll make packaging that sets your brand aglow.
