Packaging design

Packaging is the only piece of design most customers hold in their hands, and it is judged in about three seconds on a shelf next to competitors doing the same thing. It also has to survive a production process with real tolerances, real materials and real legal requirements.

Packaging is designed from the structure outwards: the dieline, the material, the print process and the finish, then the artwork that sits on it. Working that way means the design that gets approved is one that can actually be made at the price you were quoted.

The requirements that catch people out late are handled too: barcodes, ingredient and allergen panels, recycling marks, weights and measures, multi language variants and the space each of them needs. And print ready artwork is supplied to the converter specification, with proofs checked before the run.
