Dielines and prototyping
We design packaging structures from scratch, draw precise dielines and build physical mockups so you can test fit and function before production.
What we do
- Structural packaging design from scratch
- Dieline creation for cartons, shippers, kits, and specialty builds
- Master carton planning (how many units per shipper, protection, efficiency)
- Specialty packaging structures
What we need from you
- Product dimensions or a sample
- Target quantity range and budget sensitivity
- How it will be shipped or displayed
- Any must-have features (window, inserts, tear strip, closures)
- Timeline

Common questions
Can you design unusual packaging structures?
Yes. If you can describe the user experience and what the product needs to do, we can design the structure from scratch and prototype it for review.
Do you design master cartons and shipping efficiency?
Yes. We can plan the master carton count, orientation, and protective structure based on your goals for shipping cost, damage reduction, and packing workflow.
What’s the difference between a dieline and a prototype?
The dieline is the blueprint used for manufacturing. The prototype is a physical mockup made from that dieline so you can validate size, fit, readability, and overall presentation.
Do you handle final material selection and finishes?
Yes, through our manufacturing options. We’ll recommend finishes and materials that match your budget and the look you want, then coordinate with the right manufacturing partner.
