The idea here is the shirt is sent in this package and with buying more clothes you will need/want more hangers and the packaging that the shirt came in conveniently can be constructed from the direction on the packaging into a hanger.
This shows that the idea was considered about in mind of the item that was contained in the package.

The lite2go utilises the main body of the packaging as part of the product with a small recyclable strip of cardboard left over. This shows real creative and feasibility of the product become part of the packaging for some items.

This example is more about reduced to fit packaging and other tidy elements inside the packaging to hold information.

A tidy and individualised to the company box that has a compartment for documentation that is supplied such as a receipt.  The over lapping lid held by the string/elastic seems strong.  It is also nice to see that the box fix the product in size so there is no excess amount of packaging needed to be filled with paper, bubble plastic etc to stop the item moving around.
