More Than A Box 02 / PACKAGING WITH A PURPOSE

Packaging
Is Part Of
The Product.

It shouldn't be the thing you think about once everything else is finished.

The structure, materials, print and internal presentation all influence how your product looks, feels and arrives in somebody's hands.

THE THINKING

Start with what's going inside. Then build the packaging around it.

01
PROTECT

Built Around
The Product.

Dimensions, construction and internal fitments can be developed around the products they need to hold — helping everything arrive securely and present properly.

02
PRESENT

Designed To
Be Opened.

How a box opens, where the product sits and what somebody sees first can all become part of the experience rather than an afterthought.

03
REPRESENT

Made To Feel
Like Your Brand.

Materials, colour, print and finishing techniques give you control over how the packaging represents the wider brand when it reaches the recipient.

What We Manufacture 03 / PACKAGING TYPES

The Right
Format For
What's Inside.

Different products need different packaging.

From premium presentation boxes through to practical mailers and product cartons, we can develop the format around what you're packing, how it's being used and how you want it to feel.

Built From The Ground Up 04 / MAKE IT YOURS

Not Off
The Shelf.
Built To Brief.

Start with a requirement, not a catalogue.

Size, construction, materials and presentation can all be considered around the product and what the finished packaging needs to achieve.

DEVELOPMENT

Every decision changes the finished result.

01
DIMENSIONS

Size

Develop the dimensions around the product, collection or kit rather than forcing it into a predetermined format.

02
SUBSTRATE

Material

Select materials according to appearance, performance, construction and the requirements of the project.

03
FORMAT

Structure

Consider how the packaging closes, opens, travels and presents what's inside.

04
GRAPHICS

Print

Apply artwork, colour and brand elements across the surfaces that matter to the finished design.

05
DETAIL

Finish

Add tactile and visual details that give the packaging the level of presentation the project calls for.

06
INTERIOR

Fitment

Build the internal layout around the products so everything has its place when the packaging is opened.

THE RESULT YOUR SPECIFICATION

Six decisions.
One piece of packaging that feels considered.

Materials & Finishes 05 / THE DETAILS MATTER

How It Feels
Matters As Much
As How It Looks.

The finish changes the whole impression.

Material choice, print method and surface treatment all contribute to how the packaging feels in the hand and how the brand is perceived.

Product + Packaging 07 / ONE PROJECT

Don't Design
The Product
And The Box Apart.

The strongest result comes when both are considered together.

We can develop the merchandise and the packaging around the same brief — helping the size, fit, presentation and brand direction work as one.

01 THE PRODUCT
Custom branded merchandise product

Make The
Product.

Develop the merchandise around the audience, objective, specification and wider brand.

02 THE PACKAGING
Custom packaging designed around merchandise

Build The
Packaging.

Develop the dimensions, structure, fitment and presentation around the product it actually needs to hold.

03 THE RESULT

One Brief.
One Direction.
One Complete Experience.

When product and packaging are developed together, the final presentation feels intentional rather than assembled from separate parts.

An Idea In.
Finished Packaging

We manage the journey between the two.

From understanding what the packaging needs to achieve through to development, production and delivery, each stage builds towards the finished result.

01
UNDERSTAND

Brief

Product, quantities, budget, dimensions, brand requirements, destination and what the packaging needs to achieve.

02
DEVELOP

Structure

We establish the format, dimensions, materials, opening mechanism and internal layout around the brief.

03
TEST

Prototype

Where required, sampling allows the construction, fit and presentation to be reviewed before full production begins.

04
MAKE

Production

Approved specifications move into manufacturing, print and finishing.

05
CHECK

Quality

Production is checked against the agreed specification before the finished packaging moves into the final stage.

06
DELIVER

Delivery

Finished packaging is prepared for onward delivery according to the requirements of the wider project.

Frequently Asked Questions 09 / THE PRACTICAL STUFF

Before We
Build Your
Packaging.

Quantities, artwork, sampling and lead times.

Every packaging project is different, but these are some of the questions that usually come up before development begins.

01

What types of custom packaging can you produce?

Projects can include rigid presentation boxes, mailer boxes, folding cartons, gift boxes, presentation packaging and custom internal inserts or fitments. The right format depends on the product, quantities, budget and how the packaging needs to be used.

02

Can you manufacture completely bespoke packaging?

Yes. Packaging can be developed around your required dimensions, construction, materials, artwork and internal presentation rather than being limited to a standard off-the-shelf format.

03

What is the minimum order quantity?

Minimum quantities vary depending on the type of packaging, materials, print method, construction and level of customisation involved. Share your approximate requirement and we can advise on the most appropriate manufacturing route.

04

Can you create a sample before full production?

Sampling can form part of the development process where appropriate, allowing the structure, size, fit and presentation to be reviewed before the main production run.

05

What branding and finishing options are available?

Depending on the packaging specification, options can include full-colour print, foil detailing, embossing, debossing, selective gloss treatments and tactile surface finishes.

06

Can you create custom inserts for our products?

Yes. Internal fitments can be developed around the products inside the packaging to help hold, protect and present each item in the intended position.

07

Can you manufacture the products inside as well?

Yes. Where required, the merchandise and packaging can be developed as part of the same project, allowing the packaging dimensions, internal layout and presentation to be considered around the products from the beginning.

08

How long does custom packaging take to produce?

Lead times depend on the packaging format, specification, quantity, sampling requirements and manufacturing route. If you have a fixed launch, event or delivery date, include it in the initial brief so the project can be planned around it.

09

What do you need from us to get started?

Ideally, send us your approximate quantity, product dimensions or details, intended use, required date, budget and any brand guidelines or initial design ideas. If the specification isn't fully developed yet, we can start with the requirement and work from there.

STILL HAVE A QUESTION?

You don't need a finished specification. Start with what you're trying to create.
