Packaging Design Packaging design services
A pack does four jobs at once: it protects the product, sells it on a shelf or a screen, carries the required information and has to be printed well. We design it with the printer in the room, not after.
For brands selling physical products in more than one market, in English and Arabic, on shelves and online.
A pack that looks good on screen and fails on press.
Many packs are designed as flat pictures. On press the colours shift, the text sits on a fold, the barcode lands on a seam, and the second language has no room. Reprints cost more than getting it right the first time.
A range adds another test: every flavour or size must be obviously different, still one family, and still readable at thumbnail size on a marketplace. We design for the printer, the shelf and the screen together, and we place the information you supply where it works.
What we pack
- Food and beverage
- Beauty and personal care
- Fragrance and gifts
- Coffee, dates and sweets
- Retail and e-commerce products
What you get
You get structure and dielines, the pack design across your range, label layout in the languages you need, and print-ready files.
Structure & Dielines
The pack structure and dielines, worked out with your printer so the artwork fits the box, pouch, bottle or sleeve you will actually produce.
Pack Art Direction
Art direction for the pack: the look, imagery and tone that make the product stand out on a shelf or a screen, with brand guidelines for packaging.
Bilingual Label Layout
Arabic and English label layout, balanced so neither language is cramped, with space for the mandatory information you supply.
Range System
A range and variant system, so flavours, sizes or scents are clearly different and still obviously one family.
Print-ready Files
Print-ready artwork with bleeds, marks, spot colours and notes agreed with your printer, checked before it goes to press.
3D Mock-ups
3D mock-ups and flat shots for your online store, marketplace listing and sales presentations.
A new product to pack, or a pack that sells badly?
Tell us the product, the pack type and where it will be sold. We reply with questions and a scoped quote.
How it works
Step 1: Brief
The product, the shelf or screen it competes on, the printer and materials, and the languages and markets the pack must cover.
Step 2: Structure
Dielines and pack format agreed with your printer, so the design is made for the real object.
Step 3: Design
Routes shown on 3D mock-ups, then the chosen one developed across the range, with your label text placed correctly.
Step 4: Print-ready
Artwork prepared and checked with the printer, a press proof reviewed, and files handed over in your name.

Questions
How much does packaging design cost?
It depends on the scope: number of pack types, the size of the range, languages, structural work and mock-ups. Send a short brief and we quote a fixed scope. Printing and materials are paid to your printer.
Do you design the pack structure too?
We work out dielines and formats with your printer or packaging supplier. For custom structures, we involve them from the start so the design fits what can be made.
Can the label be Arabic and English?
Yes. Both languages are laid out together so neither is squeezed, and the mandatory information you supply has its own space.
Who supplies the regulatory text?
You do. Ingredients, claims, nutritional or safety text and legal marks must be supplied and validated by you. Check labelling rules with the relevant authority or your consultant. We place the text and flag when space is too tight.
Will you design a whole range?
Yes. We create a system for flavours, sizes or scents so the range reads as a family, and each variant is easy to tell apart.
What files do we receive?
Print-ready artwork, flat versions, 3D mock-ups and web images. The list is in the proposal.
Do you provide brand guidelines for the pack?
Yes. A short packaging guide covers the system, layout rules, colours and how to add new variants without us.
Who owns the artwork?
You do. Ownership of the approved designs and the source files is written into the proposal.
Can you work with our printer?
Yes, and we recommend it. We agree the specification with them, supply files in their format and review the proof.
Do you make photos or 3D images for e-commerce?
Yes. We render 3D mock-ups for listings and presentations, and our product photography service can shoot the real pack.
Tell us about the pack you need.
A short brief is enough: the product, the pack format, the languages and where it will be sold. We reply with questions and a fixed-scope quote.
