Blister Pack

Blister packaging is a common retail packaging format in which a product is placed in a pre-formed plastic blister (usually made of PVC, PET, or PS) and sealed with a backing of paperboard, aluminum foil, or plastic film by heat sealing or adhesive bonding. It is widely used for displaying and protecting small items such as hardware tools, stationery, toys, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. In foreign trade, customers often specify blister packaging for hanging or stacking on supermarket shelves. Note: blister packaging usually requires mold making, which incurs additional mold costs; different materials affect recyclability and environmental compliance (e.g., EU packaging regulations); it is similar to 'blister pack' but emphasizes that the blister is formed by a blister process. It differs from 'skin packaging' in that skin packaging's plastic film clings tightly to the product without a pre-formed blister. Compared with 'color box packaging', blister packaging offers better display but weaker protection. When quoting, you must specify the blister material, thickness, backing card printing, sealing method, and whether hanging holes are included.
