Recyclable, Biodegradable, and Compostable Packaging
Biodegradable packaging is made from materials that naturally break down over time through the action of microorganisms, such as bacteria or fungi, without leaving harmful residues. This type of packaging is designed to decompose in the environment, helping to reduce waste in landfills and minimize pollution. Typically made from natural or plant-based materials like paper, cornstarch, or bioplastics, biodegradable packaging offers an eco-friendly alternative to traditional packaging by returning to nature without damaging the ecosystem.
As sustainability becomes a top priority for businesses and consumers alike, compostable and biodegradable packaging are now essential components of eco-friendly practices. With increasing regulations and growing consumer demand for environmentally responsible products, companies must adapt to greener packaging solutions to remain competitive and compliant. The shift toward sustainable packaging is no longer optional—it’s a necessity for businesses aiming to meet modern expectations.
At Brown Packaging, we specialize in providing tailored packaging solutions that not only meet industry standards but also promote environmental responsibility. From retail compliance to government regulations, we work closely with clients to create packaging that balances performance, sustainability, and innovation, ensuring your brand stays ahead in a rapidly evolving marketplace.

Club stores such as Costco, Sam’s Club, and BJ’s Wholesale represent unique opportunities for brands. These high-traffic environments demand large-format point-of-purchase (POP) displays that deliver maximum visual impact while meeting strict retailer specifications. A successful club store display must balance branding, strength, and compliance to protect margins and attract attention in busy aisles. Unique Challenges of Club Store Displays Unlike standard retail, club stores have wider aisles, bulk packaging, and larger average purchase volumes. POP displays must adapt to: High visibility demands: Displays must stand out from a distance. Heavy product loads: Larger packs and bulk SKUs require stronger structures. Extended campaigns: Displays often stay on floors for weeks or months. Strict compliance standards: Club stores enforce precise guidelines for footprint, height, and pallet integration. Structural Design Requirements Club store POP displays often sit directly on pallets, making strength and stability critical. Engineering considerations include: Pallet fit: Displays must align with 40×48 pallets for handling and stacking. Load capacity: Designs must withstand heavy unit loads without sagging. Durability: Reinforced edges and coatings resist wear over extended campaigns. Ease of setup: Displays should arrive pre-packed or require minimal assembly. Graphics for Club Store Impact Graphics in club stores need to be bold and easily legible from a distance. Subtlety is lost in large-format retail environments. Oversized branding: Large logos and product imagery capture attention. Simple messaging: Short, benefit-driven text is more effective than detail-heavy designs. 360-degree visibility: Graphics should appear on all sides for maximum exposure. Best Practices for Club Store POP Displays Design for pallet integration and warehouse handling. Use double- or triple-wall corrugated for strength when needed. Apply protective coatings to extend floor life. Coordinate with graphics teams to simplify high-visibility messaging.

Point-of-purchase (POP) displays play a dual role in retail environments: they must capture attention with graphics while supporting products with reliable structure. If one side is overemphasized, the other suffers—eye-catching graphics on a weak structure can lead to product collapse, while overbuilt displays with poor graphics fail to drive sales. Successful POP design requires careful coordination between visual branding and engineering strength. The Role of Graphics in POP Displays Graphics carry the brand message and attract consumer attention in crowded retail aisles. Effective use of color, typography, and imagery transforms a standard corrugated display into a compelling marketing tool. Reinforces brand identity. Highlights product features or promotions. Differentiates products from competitors on the same shelf. However, graphics must be placed with consideration of die lines, folds, and assembly points. A design that looks strong in concept may lose effectiveness if critical elements are cut or hidden during production. Structural Integrity and Functionality The best POP display design balances aesthetics with durability. Structural engineering ensures the display holds weight, withstands handling, and complies with retailer requirements. Load-bearing capacity: Displays must hold multiple units without sagging. Assembly efficiency: Designs should be easy to set up in stores. Retail compliance: Dimensions must fit within chain-specific guidelines. Ignoring structure risks costly failures on the retail floor, from leaning displays to complete collapse. Achieving Balance Between Graphics and Structure Collaborative design: Graphic and structural designers should work together from concept through prototype. Testing in real-world conditions: Simulate load, handling, and lighting before production. Material selection: Choose board grades and coatings that allow high-quality print while maintaining rigidity. Print-to-structure alignment: Ensure graphics align with folds, cutouts, and SKU placement. Industry Examples Club stores: High-traffic environments demand bold graphics paired with strong pallet displays. Seasonal promotions: Graphics drive excitement, but structural resilience ensures displays last through extended campaigns. Cross-merchandising displays: Must hold different SKUs securely without compromising print impact.
