Many of our customers ask for stock clamshells, which are perfect when you find an exact size. If these clamshells are available, they don’t (in my opinion) address the most important issues when designing retail packaging. First, will your product sit/stand the way you want it to inside the cavity? Second, is there enough room for a printed card and does it provide adequate space to describe your product? Third, can the clamshells be opened easily or will you need to permanently seal them closed (to prevent theft)?

Our approach is our Virtuweld clamshells. We have stock clamshell platforms that we make only an insert for your particular product. This assures that your product is held and presented exactly as you want. We have several sizes, so you can choose the amount of space you want around the product for a printed card, and we have our patented outside sealed edge so only you know how to open and close the clamshell (a true theft deterrent). Here are some samples
