In this episode of Packaging Unboxed, Evelio Mattos, Cory Connors, and Adam Peek take on a real-world packaging question from the team at Plink!—should they merge two different packaging structures into a single, more versatile design? The goal: simplify the shelf and counter experience, reduce SKUs, and cut their cost of goods sold by over 13%. The guys explore the pros and cons of dual-function boxes that can sit pretty on a shelf or tear open for impulse grabs at checkout. It’s a lively roast, redesign, and reality check session on form, function, and the power of smart dielines.

Got a packaging problem? Tag Evelio, Cory, or Adam online with your biggest packaging challenge and they’ll break it down, roast it (kindly-ish), or help rebuild it live on the show. You might just be our next Pack of the Week!
