Whether you’re an expert or a novice, we provide the right support to make
sure your project is a roaring success.
● Packaging design service
Our extensive experience means we can help you make the most of
your creative ideas, whatever stage they’re at.
● Technical advice
We’re talented at relaying the technical side of the box making
process, helping you make the best possible decisions, for the best
possible packaging.
● Packaging consultancy
Our packaging consultancy services means helping you to maximise
productivity, efficiency and value for money. Small but effective
changes save money on materials, lower your carbon footprint and
reduce the use of plastics.
● Artworking
We offer an artworking service in our top-notch design studio, creating
your illustrations, brand logos and 3D-rendered drawings.
● Cutter guides
Cutter guides also follow on from the sample stage. They’re the raw
drawings we create using our state-of-the-art design software, allowing
artwork to be laid down over the top of the guides. We can either
export your designs (in PDF, EPS, DXP or AI) or you can make the most
of our design studio, where we can create your artwork ready for print.
● Tool making
Once we have your approval on your sample, we start the tool making
process. The first step is transferring your box shape to a backing board,
which we achieve using our precision CAD table. We then cut your
shape using either a laser or a fretsaw, before moving to the cutting
table, where the rule is hand bent and inserted into the backing board.
Adding foam to the cutter to prevent cardboard from getting trapped,
we send your box to the cutting shop ready for the next stage of the
process.
● Print management
We use both litho and digital print, for a multitude of colour designs on
your beautiful luxury box packaging. Using Pantone colours we keep
your shades tight to your brand. Fancy gloss matt, soft touch
lamination, vegetable ink machine-seal recyclable materials: we’ve
got you covered.
● Die cutting
Die cutting involves using a cutting form that is inserted onto the back
plate of our die cutting Heidelberg Platens. Our highly skilled machine
setter creates a make-ready and the chosen material is put into the
machine on lays and cut out using the ‘clamshell’ action (creating a
snap as it cuts through the board). Once returned it’s then taken from
the machine and ready for stripping out, before heading to the rigid
box making area.
● Foil stamping/ embossing/ debossing
A traditional method of branding for smaller order work, we provide hot
foil stamping to your packaging in thousands of different colours, to suit
any fancies of your imagination.
● Rigid box making
Handmaking boxes is a highly skilled craft. Our makers have extensive
training and are experts in working with a vast array of materials.
● Box making
We offer a wide range of environmentally-friendly and sustainable
materials and take pride in shaping your ideas, whether for
promotional, retail or gift purposes, into custom made presentation
packaging.
● Fulfilment/packing
Our fulfilment service allows our clients to concentrate on what they do
best, knowing that their products are in expert hands.
● Promotional service e.g. pens/pads/business cards/mugs
Making the most of your brand, in whatever way you see fit.
