What to Consider When Packaging Your Art into a Box
When it comes to packaging and shipping art pieces, ensuring that your customers receive their purchases in pristine condition is paramount. Here are some key considerations to incorporate into your art packaging strategy:

Dust and Smudge Protection
The first line of defence against damage is to protect the artwork from dust and smudges, which can be exacerbated by the protective layer or the outer shipping package itself. An additional layer, such as tissue paper or a plastic sleeve, can be invaluable. This not only keeps the artwork clean but also adds a layer of professionalism to your packaging, enhancing the unboxing experience for your customer.

Breakage Protection
To prevent any bending or breakage, particularly for flat, rolled, or framed prints, incorporating rigidity into your packaging is essential. Using cardboard backers or rigid mailers can provide the necessary support. For items that are more susceptible to damage, like fragile sculptures or delicate prints, using void fill materials (bubble wrap, foam inserts, etc.) can cushion and protect the artwork during transit.

Shipping Packaging
After securing the inner packaging, selecting the appropriate outer shipping packaging is the next step. This could be a sturdy box or a padded mailer, depending on the size, shape, and fragility of the art piece. The key is to choose a style and size that not only fits the artwork snugly but also provides enough room for protective padding without being too bulky, to keep shipping costs manageable.

Store Retail Packaging

If you’re selling in a physical retail environment in addition to or instead of online, your packaging needs might differ. Retail packaging should not only protect the artwork but also be visually appealing to attract customers. It should be easy to handle, display, and open, all while ensuring the art piece inside remains secure and undamaged.
