Ever wondered why there are printed labels and graphics on cigarette boxes?\u00a0These printed health warnings are always important because they effectively help in addressing the risks associated with smoking. They widely help create awareness about the excessive smoking problems, and the effectiveness speaks for itself as statistics have shown a drop in smoking rates from previous years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The background of Cigarette Boxes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The cigarette packaging was not printed with labels from the start, but initially, they were packaged in\u00a0blank cigarette boxes<\/a>.\u00a0The rule related to the printing of hazard warnings on the packaging was introduced in 1969 to cope with the rising level of cigarette smokers globally. The basic reason for printing these hazards was the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of the strategy in communicating with the audience about the risks of smoking. According to a study, an average smoker is exposed to these warnings on\u00a0cardboard cigarette boxes\u00a0about 7,000 times a year, ultimately impacting him\/her the negative multitudes of tobacco consumption and resulting in behavior change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reasons for printing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The basic reason behind printing these warnings on\u00a0cigarette boxes for sale\u00a0<\/strong>was to create awareness about the bad impacts of smoking on the human body and the side effects of smoke for non-smokers. These labels were initially simple written text such as \u2018Smoking is injurious to Health\u2019 printed on\u00a0cigarette box covers. Still, with the advent of time, graphics were also introduced to communicate to the illiterate audience about the effects of smoking. These\u00a0private label cigarettes\u00a0<\/strong>are also effective in communicating to the kids about the harms of smoking as most underage smokers are also present in society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Effectiveness of cigarette boxes labels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The effectiveness of these labels is significant in coping with the issues related to smoking. Statistics and research have shown that\u00a0cigarette boxes for sale,\u00a0<\/strong>printed with these labels, are the main contributor to the declining level of cigarette consumers globally. Different countries have certain requirements for the printing of these hazards, and packaging box manufacturers are directed to print 30 percent to 50 percent of the packaging with these warnings. Here are some advantages of using these printed health warnings on\u00a0cardboard cigarette cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Encourage smoking terminations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the most vital pieces of evidence for the effectiveness of smoking hazards is the research report from a recognized international tobacco policy project (ITC). They conducted surveys of adult smokers in more than 19 countries. Most smokers stated that the warnings on the paper cigarette boxes for sale contributed to reduced smoking consumption; these warnings increased their motivation to quit smoking and helped them quit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Awareness about the problems of using cigarette boxes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hazard Awareness Other research shows graphic warnings are much more effective than simple text hazards. Large visual warnings on\u00a0sleeve packaging\u00a0for cigarettes made consumers think about quitting smoking. These visuals have also raised awareness among low-income consumers who cannot read or write. The result is effective because consumers aware of the harms are more likely to quit smoking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Effective for youth\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Smoking among youth is also one of the biggest concerns that must be addressed. These smoke warnings on the\u00a0cigarette boxes\u00a0effectively communicate to the youth about the negative effects of smoking on their body. A recent study found that about 90 percent of youth agreed that smoking warnings and graphical illustrations helped them quit smoking and made smoking less attractive to them. Most students also agreed on the effectiveness of the warning labels on cigarette packs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In conclusion, we can say that printed labels on cigarette boxes,\u00a0both written and graphical ones, are essential to be printed as they help reduce the number of smokers in society and educate the masses about the negative effects<\/a> of smoking on the body. These labels also effectively create awareness among the youth and make smoking less attractive to them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
