How packaging is ordered
A customer ordering packaging knows their product dimensions and roughly how many they need, and wants a price. Producing one requires board grade, construction, print colours and run length — a calculation a configurator does instantly and a sales manager does in a day. Meanwhile the customer is getting quotes from three suppliers and ordering from whoever replied first. Artwork is the second friction point: files arrive in the wrong format without bleed or die-lines, and a prepress operator spends hours fixing them or chasing corrections that delay the whole job.
What we build for a packaging manufacturer
First, an instant quote calculator by dimensions, board grade, construction, print and quantity, which is both the price and the specification. Second, die-line templates downloadable per product, which removes most artwork rework before it happens. Third, minimum order quantities and lead times stated per product type, so customers self-qualify. Fourth, artwork upload with automatic preflight and proofing, replacing the email thread nobody can version.
