How it works

From first thought
to final fold.

Five steps and one point of contact. You do not need a finished design to start — you need a product, a rough quantity and a sense of what you want it to feel like.

01

Brief

Tell us about your product, quantity, dimensions and what you have in mind. You can come with a finished design or simply an idea. A photograph of the product next to a ruler is often enough to begin.

02

Develop

We translate the brief into the right packaging format, materials, structure and production requirements. This is where trade-offs get named: what a heavier board changes, what a second finish costs, where the quantity breaks work in your favour.

03

Sample

Where appropriate, a prototype or production sample allows you to review the packaging before full production. Handling the object answers questions that a screen cannot.

04

Produce

Once approved, the packaging moves into production with the agreed materials, printing and finishing. You deal with us throughout — not with a chain of suppliers.

05

Deliver

Your finished packaging is prepared for delivery to your chosen destination, with the paperwork the route requires.

Two ways in.

Most projects arrive on one of these two paths. Both end in the same place.

Path A

I already have the design.

You send the files and the specification. We check the artwork against the construction, flag anything that will not print or fold as drawn, and prepare the production route.

What to send
  • Artwork (PDF, AI, EPS)
  • Dimensions and dieline if available
  • Quantity
  • Materials and finishes if known
  • Delivery location
Path B

I know what I want, but need help developing it.

You describe the product and the impression you are after. We propose the structure, material and specification, then take it to sample. This is the usual route for growing brands.

What to send
  • The product and its dimensions
  • Reference images
  • Brand assets
  • Quantity and target look
  • Budget range

On timing.

Lead times depend on construction, finishing, quantity and destination. Sampling adds time and usually saves more than it costs. We give you a schedule with the quote, and tell you which dates are firm and which depend on approvals.
