Packaging Artwork Support From Concept to Production
Packaging artwork involves much more than placing a logo onto a pouch. Dimensions, sealing areas, gussets, zippers, valves, spouts, barcodes and printing requirements all need to be considered before production.
Our team helps prepare and optimize your files for flexible packaging manufacturing.
Artwork File Checking
Already have a design? We’ll check your artwork for common issues, including incorrect dimensions, insufficient bleed, low-resolution images, missing fonts, color settings, and elements too close to sealing areas.
Prepress & File Preparation
We prepare customer artwork for printing by adjusting file dimensions, bleed, color settings, layers and production marks according to the pouch structure and printing process.
Artwork Layout & Dieline Setup
Flexible packaging artwork must follow the actual pouch structure. We provide dielines and help position graphics correctly across the front, back, gussets, seals and functional areas of the pouch.
Mockup to Print-Ready Artwork
Only have a packaging mockup, concept image or reference design? Our team can help rebuild the artwork into an editable production file based on the approved pouch dimensions and dieline.
What Files Can You Send Us?
You don't always need a perfectly prepared packaging file before contacting us. Depending on your project, we can work with different levels of artwork preparation.
Print-Ready Artwork
AI, PDF or other editable artwork already prepared according to the pouch dieline.
Check → Prepress → Print
Existing Artwork Without Dieline
You already have the packaging design but it has not yet been adapted to our pouch dimensions.
Artwork → Dieline Layout → Prepress
Mockup or Concept Design
You have a visual mockup or packaging concept but no production-ready artwork.
Mockup → Artwork Reconstruction → Dieline → Prepress
Basic Brand Assets
You have your logo, text, product information and images but need help creating the packaging layout.
Assets → Layout → Mockup → Approval → Print-Ready Artwork
How Our Packaging Artwork Process Works
Send Your Artwork or Idea
Send us your existing artwork, mockup, dieline or brand assets together with the required pouch size and packaging specifications.
Artwork Review
Our team checks the file structure, dimensions, image quality, colors and packaging layout.
File Adjustment & Prepress
We adjust the artwork according to the final pouch structure, printing process and production requirements.
Mockup, Approval & Print-Ready Artwork
We provide a digital mockup or artwork proof for review, then finalize the approved design and prepare it for printing.
Packaging Design Must Consider How the Pouch Is Made
Flexible packaging artwork has unique production requirements. Graphics that look correct on a flat screen may appear differently once the pouch is formed, sealed or filled.
Zippers & Tear Notches
Important graphics should remain clear of zipper tracks, tear notches and sealing areas.
Bottom & Side Gussets
Artwork on gussets may fold or change orientation after the pouch is formed.
Spouts & Valves
Spouts, coffee valves and other fitments need to be considered during artwork positioning.
Sealing Areas
Text, barcodes and critical graphics should generally be kept away from heat-sealing areas.
Printing Methods
Artwork preparation may differ depending on whether the project uses digital printing or rotogravure printing.

Why Work With Our Packaging Team
Packaging-Specific Experience
Our team works with flexible packaging every day, so artwork is prepared with actual pouch manufacturing requirements in mind.
Design + Prepress + Production
Artwork preparation, pouch structure and printing requirements can be reviewed together rather than handled by separate suppliers.
Digital & Rotogravure Printing
Files can be prepared according to the printing method selected for the project.
Support for Small and Large Projects
From small-batch digitally printed pouches to larger rotogravure projects, we can support different packaging development stages.
FAQs
Yes. We can review existing artwork for dimensions, bleed, resolution, colors, dieline positioning and other production-related issues.
Yes. Once the pouch size and structure are confirmed, we can provide the corresponding dieline for artwork preparation.
