The unprecedented development of the economy has brought about earth-shaking changes in people's lives. People's requirements for "beauty" have become more demanding, and higher requirements have been placed on the aesthetics of packaging design. As a common form of packaging, carton packaging is widely used in the packaging field due to its advantages of easy folding, easy forming, easy bonding and low cost. Carton packaging has its own characteristics in structural design. The novel design and the perfect packaging function are easy to attract consumers' curiosity and desire to purchase. Therefore, the personalized carton packaging design is increasingly popular among consumers.
