17 Coffee Packaging Ideas

Are you looking for great coffee packaging ideas for your business? This article will help you.

Packaging is the first thing customers see when they come to your shop.
So, you can make them excited or do the complete opposite. The difference depends on many factors. And packaging is right there with them.
But which design should you choose since there are many options available?
The answer will also depend on what you want to achieve. Some designs focus on style, others on sustainability, and some combine both.
Here are 17 coffee packaging ideas to help you find the right one for your brand.

1. Wooden Gift Box

The first design is a wooden box with a story to tell. Its smooth wooden surface sets the stage for what's inside. This design has something luxurious about it. Maybe it is the color of the coffee tin or but for me, it's definitely the wood.

2. Coffee Bag

Who says coffee packaging has to be serious? It doesn't and this design agrees. A good coffee packaging design can just be as simple as the coffee bag above.
The only thing that matters is bringing a smile before the first sip. Of course this does, thanks to its animal illustrations.
But it does more:
As a business person, you may already know that people connect with products that feel approachable.
If it can make them pause and smile, they'll likely remember it. This packaging has the charm to do just that.

3. Coffee Cup & Box

Wouldn't you rather buy something that looks like a gift instead of just another takeaway? The same goes for your customers. I love coffee packaging that makes an everyday item feel extraordinary. This design does exactly that.
The cup is placed outside the box. It's displayed almost like it's on stage. There's a small window to offer a peek into the coffee inside.
This is a unique design that would also make customers remember your brand.

4. Kraft Coffee Bag

If packaging could influence the way coffee tastes, this could have been it. Sadly, it doesn't. At least not literally. Over 50% of buyers today are eco-conscious, so a kraft paper bag is something they'd prefer because of their values.
It's natural, authentic, and eco-friendly. Three most important factors influencing buying decisions today.
This is the kind of packaging that makes you pause, run your fingers over the texture, and appreciate the care behind it.

5. Coffee Sachet

You don't always need a whole bag of coffee. Sometimes, a single sachet is just right.
This packaging keeps things neat, is familiar, and ready for use.
Plus, the individual sachets are tucked inside an unbleached cardboard box. So, no waste, no mess, just the perfect amount every time.

6. Coffee Carrier Design

You've got two coffees, but only one free hand. What do you do? You use a cup carrier. There are three options on our list today, and this is the first. This cardboard carrier has a snug fit to keep the cups secure.
The handle is strong enough to make carrying coffee effortless.

7. Coffee Tins

Not all coffee drinkers are the same. Some need a small dose, others stock up. These cylindrical containers get it right. One advantage is that they come in different sizes to match your needs. The design is practical, clean, and may also be a little satisfying.
So, the next time you are looking for coffee packaging ideas, remember good coffee deserves packaging that works as well as it tastes.

8. Paper Bags & Cans

It doesn't matter whether you are using a bag or a can. What catches the customer's eye is the art. And when the packaging looks this thoughtful, you know the coffee inside is just as good.
There's no mass-produced shine here, just raw, organic beauty. You don't just see the craftsmanship. You feel it.

9. Modern Cylindrical Tin

This is one of those tins that speak for themselves. The solid brown color feels warm and refined. The subtle details add just enough. You get more than just packaging. You get a container worth keeping.

• It's sturdy
• It's reusable
• It's effortlessly stylish

10. Coffee Bag & Cup

I have discussed similar designs, but there's something unique about this concept. Both bag and cup are consistently branded for authenticity. The color choice makes this design feel luxurious. You can also add details about the coffee. Or even a label with a personalized message.

11. Takeaway Coffee Cups

Do you remember the two-carrier design I discussed at number 6? This is a similar design with only a few differences:

• The carrier is branded
• The cups are colored with a dark green and beige tone.
• Both the carrier and cups carry thoughtful illustrations.

12. Box Set for Instant Coffee

Those buying from you deserve instant coffee that looks as good as it tastes. The good news is that this box design delivers just that. It's a simple design, but every detail is intentional. You get a sense of quality before you even take a sip. Who says Instant coffee can't feel premium? This design says it can.

13. Two-Toned Cup Design

Here's another cup design. It's a two-colored block with a bright yellow base and a contrasting olive-green wrap. The white lid stands out from the rest of the design, and helps keep your coffee safe. You can add a tag from the lid to complete your branding.

14. Clear Coffee Pouch

Wouldn't you trust coffee more if you could see the beans before buying? This clear, resealable pouch lets you do exactly that. There's no surprises, just high-quality beans on full display. The design keeps the focus where it should be (on the coffee).

15. Paper Gift Bag

Here's a packaging design that lets you send both coffee and flowers to the people you love. The ingenious cardboard carrier holds the cup securely and also makes room for a small floral arrangement.
Besides gifts, you can use this packaging idea to get a little treat for yourself. You deserve that, too.

16. Paper Cups and Matching Carrier

This is yet another cup carrier design. Just like the last one, this is also different from the others. The carrier has the same brand colors as the cups, but this is not the difference.
Here, the carrier unfolds to form a base for the cups.

17. Cardboard Box with a Cutout

You care about the planet, so does this packaging, and 78% of buyers today prefer a sustainable lifestyle. This data from a NielsenIQ study highlights the importance of eco-consciousness. Of course, this design has a cutout so that your customers can see the cup's ridged texture before opening it.

Conclusion

You're not just selling coffee. You're selling an experience. The right packaging can grab attention, build trust, and even turn first-time buyers into loyal customers.
These coffee packaging ideas show how design, functionality, and sustainability can work together to elevate your brand. What story does your packaging tell?
