Packaging Design
70% of consumer purchasing decisions are based on packaging alone, so it’s no surprise that a product’s primary cover is crucial.
From retail packaging and displays to shipping cartons and pallet-sized industrial packs, The BoxMaker will leverage every opportunity to create innovative structural designs intended to showcase and protect your product.
Our Packaging Design Studio
Our packaging design studio is unique—we have a working knowledge of not just one but many different substrates. The BoxMaker’s team of designers are material neutral, which means we will design your custom solution using the best material for your needs, not only in materials that we manufacture with in-house. Whether it be corrugated, polyurethane or polyethylene foam, EPS, Falconboard®, Hexacomb®, or SBS paperboard—you can have the confidence to know that we are guiding you in the direction that meets or exceeds your vision.
We use sustainable materials, create innovative options, and offer design alternatives whenever possible. Every facet of a product’s packaging is carefully designed to maximize protection, efficiency, and – of course – visual impact.
An Award-Winning Structural Design Team
Great packaging and displays begin with great design. We are constantly pushing the limits of packaging design, and in order to do so we have invested heavily in industry leading software and hardware. We have also committed to investing in quality people with amazing skills and creativity. We are fortunate to have some of the nation’s best designers on our team. These creative people thrive on being challenged and push the limits of structure, materials and packaging machinery.
As part of our commitment to innovative design we participate industry competitions. Over the years, the talent and innovation of our team has been recognized with numerous awards in the following categories:
- Innovative structural design consumer focus
- Innovative structural design industrial focus
- Best use of corrugated material replacing other packaging or best demonstration of it environmental advantages
- Judges choice
- Corrugated Art and Design
Packaging Prototyping
Between concepts and finished product lies an important milestone. The BoxMaker’s award winning design studio uses the latest industry leading CAD systems and software specific to the packaging industry to develop full-scale prototypes based on your actual product or 3D model. Cushioning materials and full mock-ups are integral parts of every design project.
Once our designers are satisfied with their work, our state-of-the-art Kongsberg XP Auto then whips out prototypes at lightning speed. Need more than a prototype to bring to your next trade fair or shareholder meeting? Our HP wide-format digital press and Kongsberg table can save your day – and your budget. All we need is our CAD drawing and your electronic artwork file to produce short-run prototyping with unparalleled results.
The BoxMaker’s design studio has high capacity to meet the most demanding specifications and schedules which makes us uniquely qualified to handle the growing needs of clients in any industry.

3D Modeling
Our in-house design team works with the latest software for structural designs and CAD layouts. We can also take the process to the next step with our 3D modeling capabilities.
We transform our creations into 3-dimensional models on-screen, allowing us to rotate and fold the design, add assembly steps, apply graphics, and rapidly change perspective to get a more robust understanding of utilization, aesthetics, and viability. This process increases quality by allowing us to implement any changes or brilliant design ideas before we’ve gone through the sample approval process.
