Our factory receives numerous inquiries about customized packaging daily, encompassing a wide range of creative ideas. However, most customers lack basic professional knowledge about the packaging industry, making it difficult to implement their requests and ultimately wasting time and effort for both parties.  

Common Customer Issues

  1. Missing Information and Inefficient Communication  

   - Insufficient product details (e.g., weight, volume, purpose, features).  

   - Unclear basic packaging requirements (e.g., box type, material selection, process needs).  

   - No design references or ready-made solutions, only asking the factory to “provide a quote”.  

  1. Overlooking Design and Production Timelines  

   - Expecting quick quotes without considering the time required for design, proposals, and proofreading.  

   - Ignoring the complexity of customized packaging and expecting a production-ready solution from minimal communication.

Our Recommendations for Effective Communication

Customized packaging requires customers to provide as much detailed information as possible in the early stages or entrust the design work to professional designers. The following approaches can greatly improve communication efficiency and reduce back-and-forth:  

  1. Prepare Complete Design Files:  

   If customers can work with their designers to create comprehensive and near-perfect design files, we can:  

   - Quickly understand the product's needs and packaging attributes based on the design.  

   - Make minor adjustments and proceed rapidly with quoting, sampling, or production.  

   Design files accurately convey packaging materials, processes, dimensions, and functional requirements, significantly reducing communication time.  

  1. Provide a Basic Information Checklist:  

   If design files are unavailable, customers should at least organize the following information:  

   - Product Information: Include weight, volume, purpose, and whether special functions (e.g., moisture resistance, weight-bearing) are needed.  

   - Packaging Requirements: Specify box type (e.g., premium box, corrugated box), material selection, and process requirements.  

   - Order Plan: Indicate order quantity and budget range.
