GENERAL PACK · STRUCTURAL PACKAGING & DISPLAY DESIGN
Structural packaging
& display design.
A package starts with how it works. General Pack develops structural packaging and display designs for businesses in New Jersey and New York City, considering custom dielines, product fit and prototype planning together.

Begin with the product and the use
The product size and weight are starting points. We also need to know how the package will be packed, handled, opened and displayed. A shipping box, an influencer kit and a countertop display can hold similar products while needing different structures. Share samples or accurate measurements so the design addresses the actual contents.
Custom packaging dieline design
A dieline sets out the flat panels, cut edges and crease positions that form the package. Board thickness, fold direction, closures and clearances affect how the pieces fit together. Inserts and partitions need to be considered alongside the outer box. The agreed dieline also gives the artwork a defined layout, including panels and openings that affect the finished presentation.
Design the display around its contents
Structural display design considers the footprint, shelves, product arrangement and assembly sequence. Corrugated floor displays and counter displays need support where their products place weight. We use the intended product count and placement to guide the structure and the space available for graphics.
Planning packaging prototypes and mockups
A packaging prototype or mockup helps review size, product fit, opening and assembly before committing to the finished design. Discuss the sample material and what needs to be checked: a structural mockup and a finished print sample serve different purposes. Confirm the folding layout first, then place artwork on the agreed dieline. Include any existing sample, drawing or mockup with your enquiry.
