The ease of opening and handling the packaging can be crucial in determining whether customers are satisfied with their purchase. That’s why it’s well-advised and cost-effective to involve the most demanding users early in the design process. Notably, since the population of older consumers with high purchasing power is growing. If the packaging is functional and easy to handle for people with reduced hand function, it generally improves the interaction experience for all consumers.

Easy to use is a unique testing method that involves people with limited hand function to determine whether the packaging is user-friendly. Leading companies like Ecolean, Essity, Nolato Cerbo, and Tetra Pak have embraced this testing process to ensure their packaging meets the highest accessibility standards. If the test group approves the packaging, it will get an Easy to use certificate from the Swedish Rheumatism Association.
