Questions we would ask first
- Product dimensions, weight and required orientation
- Retail channel, shelf position and display-tray requirements
- Inner pack, case packing and distribution conditions
- Required copy, barcodes and product-variant rules
Retail solutions
Custom retail packaging has to protect the product and earn its place on shelf.
Product fit, required copy, shelf orientation, display trays and the shipping case should be planned as one journey—not separate design jobs.

Common mistakes
The choices that usually create trouble later.
A retail carton is only one layer of the system. The product has to fit, required information needs a stable panel, the display tray must reveal the right message, and the shipping case has to protect the printed surfaces. Structural and shelf checks come before decorative finishes.
- Designing the carton without the shipping case
- Approving artwork only on a screen
- Letting a display tray hide key information
- Adding shine before fixing the shelf message
