Built around the requirement.

From the product itself to the box it arrives in, we develop to your specification and your brand. Through a direct network of packaging manufacturers, we produce rigid gift boxes, folding and shipping cartons, inserts and printed presentation packs in your branding.

What we produce

We work through a direct network of packaging manufacturers, which lets us place each requirement with a producer suited to it. The work covers rigid gift boxes, folding cartons, shipping cartons, inserts and printed presentation packs, all produced in your branding.

How a packaging project runs

A project starts from the product: its dimensions, how fragile it is, how it will be shipped and how it should look when it is opened. From there the structure is drawn, the materials and print finish are chosen, and a sample is made for you to handle and approve. Production follows the approved sample.

Every development is scoped against your specification, volumes and timeline before production begins. You know what will be made, in what quantity and by when, before you commit.

Packaging planned with the product

Packaging is often the last thing to be decided and the first thing a customer sees. Because we source the product as well, the two can be planned together. A wine in a dedicated presentation can have its gift box developed at the same time. A garment can arrive in the sleeve or carton designed for it, and a hospitality amenity can be delivered in its finished pack.

Product development

The same approach applies when the product itself does not exist yet. Development covers specification, materials, custom finishes, garment development and hospitality-specific configurations, coordinated with the partner best placed to deliver them.

To begin, send us the product dimensions or a sample, your artwork or brand guidelines, the quantity you have in mind and your timing.
