Seeing Is Selling

On a retail shelf, a closed box is just a box. A window box lets customers see, touch, and examine the product before buying.

Studies consistently show: window packaging = higher sales.

Why Window Boxes Work

Avantage	Impact
Customers see the product	Less uncertainty
Quality visible	Builds trust
Product stands out	Stands out on shelf
No need to open box	Easy shopping
Touch appeal	Customers can feel texture

Window Sizes

Window Size	Idéal pour
Small window	Products where partial view is enough
Medium window	Most products, balanced
Large / full window	Products where seeing everything matters

Rule: The bigger the window, the more product visible. But too big = weakens the box structure.

Window Placement

Position	Effect
Center front	Classic, balanced
Upper front	Shows top of product
Lower front	Shows main body
Full front	Maximum visibility

Think about where the product’s best side is, and put the window there.

Shaped Windows

Beyond rectangles, windows can be custom shapes:

Product silhouette outline

Brand logo shape

Decorative shape

Shaped windows look premium and draw the eye.
