Packaging Design Professional Advice
No matter which customization option you choose, the following suggestions will help you create better packaging:
Effective Cost Saving Strategy
For Type 3 customization, use the manufacturer's existing molds for internal components and specially design only external appearance components. This maintains a unique appearance while significantly reducing mold costs.
Material Selection Considerations
Consider using sustainable materials (such as recyclable plastics or biodegradable materials) according to the target market's environmental requirements. This not only meets regulatory requirements but also enhances brand image.
Process Effect Testing
Before mass production, be sure to request process samples to confirm colors, textures, and feel meet expectations, especially for Pantone colors and special effects.
Travel-Friendly & Sustainable Trends
Modern lifestyles demand convenience and eco-consciousness. Consider ultra-slim, portable designs and 100% recyclable materials to appeal to today's consumers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which customization option should I choose?
This depends on your budget and timeline:
- If the budget is $8,000-$15,000 and you want a quick market entry, choose Type 1
- If the budget is $20,000-$30,000 and you want packaging with exclusive identification but don't want full custom mold risk, choose Type 2
- If the budget exceeds $30,000 and you pursue unique packaging, choose Type 3
What is the customization process for Type 3?
Type 3 customization is a multi-stage process:
- Provide design ideas or 3D modeling design drawings
- 3D modeling (if no design drawings)
- Create a 3D prototype to confirm the design
- Confirm mold costs and open molds
- Mass production
The entire process takes 8-16 weeks; we recommend reserving sufficient time.
How can I ensure the final product meets expectations?
We strongly recommend:
- For Type 1 and Type 2, request process samples first
- For Type 3, be sure to confirm with the 3D prototype
- Provide clear Pantone color codes or physical color samples
- Confirm all design details, including logo position, size, etc.
Can minimum order quantities be negotiated?
Type 1 and Type 2 MOQs are relatively fixed, but can be slightly adjusted based on specific processes and packaging complexity. Type 3 MOQ mainly depends on mold costs, usually requiring higher quantities to amortize mold costs.
