Design and Development Centres

The Design and Development Centre provides increased sales support and value-added services, including creative concepts, CAD prototypes, colour proofing, pre-production management and localisation, to streamline the production process.  Liaising with the  U.S/Asian plants simultaneously when required enables us to provide a  time sensitive full end-to-end packaging production service. In addition the centre also provides critical path management of complex manufacturing projects involving 3rd party suppliers.

Structural Design

The highly skilled CAD team have a broad range of experience in packaging engineering in a variety of materials including folding board, rigid board, tin, wood, vac-formed or injection moulded plastics to design and physically produce samples before going into production.

Prototypes

Success in the deluxe packaging arena is a key focus due to the ability to create mockups that accurately portray the final result. Prototypes can promptly be produced from our Design and Development Centre.

Working alongside our global sourcing team, bespoke items of almost any nature can be found within very tight timelines. Without the need to go backwards and forwards between manufacturing plants, we can produce printed, plain or 3D mock-ups, soft proofing and technical mock-ups.

Finished product such as the Inception attaché cases were produced and manufactured within 2 weeks of prototype approval and accurately represented the finished item.

3D Visualisation

The digital division specialise in online and offline experential campaigns, and also produce 3D rendering & movies. An example is ‘Assassins Creed: Brotherhood’ outdoor campaign, which was a takeover of Oxford Circus tube station so the client could see exactly how the advertising we created would look in situ.
