Design

Within our industry-leading design department, we can offer designs drawn with 3D CAD software and with integrated analysis software we can determine the best way to work with a design brief. Once 3D models have been produced, we can provide you with technical drawings for you to review.

In the design phase, there are 3 paths to consider. The criteria for each are determined by what you require from us and also what information and detail you can provide. The paths are shown below - click on each one to see more information. 

Our Tiered Design Process

Start Point

Actions:

Our sales team will create a job request form from the brief supplied.

Parameters:

  • Physical parameters such as contents, volumes and sizes.
  • Customer and consumer processes such as cooking, freezing or any storage & supply chain conditions.
  • Additional factory processing such as heat sealing, flow wrapping etc.
  • Any mating parts such as card sleeves, labels etc.

PDF Drawing

Outputs:

  • From a basic brief, a technical drawing can be produced of the product.
  • This drawing will be sent to the customer for approval before continuing to the next process.

Actions:

Our sales team will create a job request form from the brief supplied.

Parameters:

  • The brief this may contain limited information on specific parameters of the product and contents.
  • Using our design knowledge we will fill in the gaps of the brief.
  • Creative briefs give us more freedom with the design.

PDF Drawing / Powerpoint Slides

Outputs:

  • From a creative brief, along with a technical drawing if requested, you can also receive rendered images of the design proposals.
  • These images and technical drawing will be sent to the customer for approval before continuing to the next process.

Actions:

In this instance rather than receiving a detailed brief we may receive an email giving some guidelines on the outcome of the project.

Parameters:

  • Blue sky briefs contain few limitations if any within the design constraints.
  • We can start with as little information as the sector from within the products are required for.
  • Research will be undertaken, looking at: our customers/market sector/ market research. We will also look at past, present and future trends.

Full Presentation

Outputs:

  • From a blue sky brief, an annotated presentation with high quality rendered images will be produced, detailing the thought process and rational behind the design ideas.
