From Idea to Delivery: How We Work

Brief

 

What do you need your packaging to do? We start by learning about your product, your customers, your goals, and how the packaging needs to perform. Your dedicated account manager will keep things moving and update you at every stage.

Once we’ve gathered what we need, we’ll hand the brief to our creative team, who will begin shaping your custom concept.

Concept Design

 

Using modern software and smart thinking, we’ll build a packaging or POS display concept that fits your brand. Our team focuses on designs that use less material, reduce waste, cut costs, and still meet every requirement.

We’ll show you multiple creative options that match your product and market. You choose the concept that works best.

Print Layout and Artwork Design

Already have your artwork ready? Great. We’ll send over the correct layout so your design fits perfectly. If you need help with design, our team can create new artwork for you.

We check everything carefully. That includes cutter guides, colours, folds, and finishes. We then provide a visual mock-up so you can see the result.

Prototypes

 

Once you’re happy with the design, we’ll produce a full-size prototype. You can share it with your team, test it with customers, review it in detail, or just get a proper feel for the idea.

This is where you really get to see what your packaging will look like.

Manufacturing

 

We run full quality checks before and during production. This means your packaging or POS display will be strong, easy to build, quick to set up, and ready to go.

Short on time? We can offer express production and fast lead times when needed.

Delivery

 

We’ll arrange delivery at a time that works best for you. Every item is packed securely for safe arrival. If you need a repeat order or have a question, our friendly team is always ready to help.
