These details help the team discuss the right format and what needs to be checked before production.
Format and equipment
Share pack dimensions, fill quantity and the machine or manual process. Compatibility should be confirmed with the actual line.
Artwork and finish
Send print files or references and identify required product information, finish preferences and any opening or closure features.
What to confirm
Review the pack in its real use
Confirm low-temperature performance, seal integrity, condensation exposure and suitability for the actual filling process. Material layers, barrier targets, dimensions and performance are selected for each application. Final suitability, specifications and any regulatory requirements must be reviewed and confirmed for the particular product and market.
Storage and distribution
Consider temperature, humidity, light, stacking and the route between filling and the end customer.
Filling and sealing
Confirm dimensions, speed, seal conditions and handling against the equipment that will run the pack.
Sample and approval
Where available, assess a sample with the intended product and process before committing to a production run.
