Speed is essential in today's CPG landscape. Seeing designs on screen isn't enough - brands need physical prototypes and comps to validate execution and ensure sustainable impact. We provide rapid realization of packaging concepts so products make it to market faster. With us, you can test out ideas quickly rather than getting stuck on approvals down the line. Our agile capabilities propel your packaging from concept to shelf.

- Secondary packaging is essential across many categories of CPG.
- Creating Folding Cartons, Rigid Boxes, Set-up Boxes, corrugated, presentation kits, and influencer boxes is essential for our clients.
- With dozens of materials in stock, we can quickly move to realize any secondary packaging need.
- Material Options - Films, foils and laminates enable durability, barriers, and properties aligned to preservation needs.
- Sustainability - Typically requires fewer resources, generates less waste versus rigid formats, lightweight. Recyclable/compostable innovations also eco-friendly.
- Branding & Functionality - Vibrant graphics, resealable closures, shape customization appeals to consumers while extending shelf life.
- Preservation & Convenience - Barriers like moisture and UV resistance extend freshness. Dispensing features improve convenience.
- Cost Savings - Requires less materials and energy versus rigid counterparts, reduced transportation footprint, and passes savings to brands.
- Enhances Product Appeal - Shrink sleeving creates 360-degree graphic coverage for high visual impact to stand out on shelf. Vibrant colors and effects attract consumer eyes.
- Strengthens Brand Recognition - Seamless full-body graphic wrap promotes brand identity across varieties and reinforces consumer loyalty over time.
- Improves Tamper Evidence - The brittle shrink film provides obvious visual cues if a package has been opened or altered after shrink application.
- Streamlines Processing - Sleeving can decorate containers rapidly without slowing filling speeds by applying post-production. Reduces change over and downtime.
- Widens Compatibility - Flexible shrink films conform to various container materials like glass, plastic, metal and unique shapes, only limited by the product size itself for decorated options.
- Adds Tactile Interest - Dimensional effects offer visual and textural intrigue that make packaging more sensory and interactive for consumers.
- Enhances Brand Marking - Logo/icon debossing provides subtle but distinctive brand indentifiers beyond just graphics to uniquely imprint your image.
- Improves Sustainability - Embossing eliminates need for additional bill of material elements like foils and laminates, simplifying material efficiency.
- Conveys Premium Feel - Upscale packages utilize textures that mimic the sensation of higher-cost embellishment without that expense, elevating perceived quality.
- Premium Visual Appeal - Metallic and colored foils create luxurious shimmering effects and intricate designs that feel elevated and special.
- Functional Compatibility - Foil-stamping process adheres foils through heat and pressure safely onto many substrates like paper, plastics, leather.
- Brand Image Enhancer - Premium look and feel foil lends associates brands with high quality, reinforcing positionings around indulgence.
- In-line Efficiency- Foil stamping plates easily integrate into existing die cutter infrastructure for streamlined embellishing.
- Consumer Sensory Delight - Reflective, dimensional and textural foils excite visual senses while also able to accentuate openings through strategic location.
- Cost-Effective Customization - Gang multiple transfer designs for economical short runs personalized to each application.
- Material Flexibility - Apply onto almost any smooth surface like wood, metal, glass and plastic with ease and precision.
- Enhanced Prototyping - Affordable way to simulate decorated production pieces with color, typography, symbols, for true design visualization.
- Professional Appearance - Give prototypes elevated realism on par with finished decorated goods with durable, opaque or metallic graphic transfers.
- Streamlined Workflows - Digitally print custom transfers based on client artwork for fast turnaround without setup, clean and sustainable process.
- Rapid Concept Models - Accelerate design finalization by 3D printing multiple iterations in hours/days rather than weeks.
- Complex Geometries - Uniquely construct intricate or impossible shapes through precise layer-by-layer fabrication.
- Functional Prototypes - Print with production-grade materials for models that emulate weight, texture, strength, flex.
- Design Validation - Test form, fit, sealing, stacking, interactions and ergonomics with realistic 3D printed packs.
- Streamline Workflows - Seamless CAD to print workflow enables faster downstream adjustments rather than model remodeling.
