Too many packaging projects result in increased complexity, inconsistent artwork and repro builds, longer lead times and higher costs. By connecting every stage of the packaging production process, we streamline the approach to drive efficiencies and create packaging that is technically sound – increasing cost effectiveness and optimising print processes.
Our streamlined and integrated production approach delivers multiple disciplines under one roof – using an understanding of design intent, precision tools and automated systems to create consistent and successful brands. Together we ensure that we deliver packaging that is aligned to the brand vision in an effective and responsive way.
We create commercially successful brands
by offering the following connected expertise.
Creation of colour separated artwork, technically set up for the specified printer and print process – digital, flexo, litho, gravure.
Creation of repro files, working to the parameters of the chosen printer and its bespoke press specifications.
Cross-functional collaboration between marketing, procurement, supply chain and print suppliers. Printer management to achieve superior, predictable outcomes every time.
Using state-of-the-art ink matching to printer colour profiles, producing GMG Certified proofs on a range of substrates. Aligning visual scores with our knowledge of brand requirements to achieve the highest level of consistency.
Our processes are driven by a powerful project management system which organises projects in a simple way, to be viewed in real time by teams and the wider business. The system can be customised and has a built-in approval process for easy collaboration and sign off.
Attention to detail in the creative and technical retouching of imagery to the highest level, achieving imagery that looks great and prints easily.
Production of high-end, affordable 3D visualised renders, created from finalised artwork for use in presentations, marketing materials and online activity.
Support and guidance on press – challenging printers to achieve the signed-off colour-standard targets, brand vision and packaging continuity.
Collaboration with an award-winning design partner for creative input in achieving brand success.
