Packaging Consulting

Strategic review of your packaging system before it goes to print — so you avoid costly mistakes.

Packaging errors discovered after production are expensive. A dieline that does not fold correctly. A color that shifts on press. A label that fails regulatory requirements in the target market. The Packaging Consulting engagement gives you a specialist review of every technical and visual aspect of your packaging before a single unit is printed.

What's included

• Structural dieline review and notes
• Print specification checklist
• Color reproduction analysis
• Shelf-impact and legibility review
• Regulatory compliance checklist (by market)
• Revised specification document

01 — Brief intake

You share files, supplier specs, target markets, regulatory requirements, and production timeline.

02 — Structural review

I review dielines, construction logic, material specifications, and production feasibility for your packaging format.

03 — Print spec audit

Color mode, bleed, resolution, font embedding, overprint settings, and file preparation for the specific print process.

04 — Shelf analysis

Visual impact assessment: legibility at distance, competitive differentiation, and hierarchy of information on pack.

Do you work with my printer directly?

If needed, yes. I can coordinate technical review with your supplier directly or provide a spec document for you to share.

What file formats do you need?

Adobe Illustrator (.ai), PDF, and any supplier dieline templates. If files are in other formats, I will advise on conversion.
