The packaging manufacturer 'Qualvis Print & Packaging' recently designed a series of tiny treat boxes to promote its brand throughout the Halloween season. As with other holidays, Halloween provides a number of opportunities for companies to rebrand popular products. These [Halloween-themed cartons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-retail-packaging) show off the full range of finishes that Qualvis has to offer.

The tiny treat boxes feature a crash lock design and a ghoulish Halloween graphic. The design is printed on a silver metalised board with a mix of matt and spot gloss finishes. The pumpkin graphic on the front of the box is made using 3D-contoured embossing, which helps the image stand out. The box is also coated in a scented varnish that emits peppermint and ginger fragrances. The overall effect is a graphic carton that fully embraces the sights and scents of the Halloween season.

The Halloween-themed boxes represent a unique approach to [promotional packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/albertsons-overjoyed-halloween).
