Packaging design services involves understanding our customer’s requirements for their products.
Considerations for custom packaging requirements include:
- How the product is shipped, UPS, LTL etc?
- Is the product shiped domestically, internationally or both?
- What is the volume for the item to be packaged? This helps determine the types of packaging materials available to package this product.
- Do you require environmentally friendly packaging materials?
- Is the product a DOT restricted item? For example: lithium batteries or hazardous chemicals
- Is this a retail or industrial packaging application?
- What is the weight of the product?
- Is this a single or multipack application?
- Operational efficiencies in the production and packaging areas of your operation.
- Is the production facility fully or partially automated?
- Can returnable packaging be used to ship the product?
- Do you require a specific shipping test the product must pass? ASTM or ISTA are most common.
