Custom Packaging process
At NuGen Packaging, our custom packaging process is designed to deliver sustainable, high-performance solutions that meet the unique needs of each client. We approach every project with a commitment to reducing environmental impact while maintaining the highest quality standards. Here’s how we achieve this:
Consultation & Discovery
Our process begins with a thorough consultation to understand your brand’s vision, goals, and sustainability requirements. We assess your product’s specific needs, from performance barriers to shelf appeal, and determine how we can incorporate sustainable materials like glass, aluminum, plastic PCR, or biodegradable and compostable options. Our team of packaging experts collaborates with you to ensure that every design aspect aligns with your sustainability goals.
Design & Engineering
Once we have a clear understanding of your requirements, our design and engineering team develops innovative packaging solutions tailored to your product. We focus on creating packaging that not only enhances your brand’s identity but also uses environmentally friendly materials. Whether it’s lightweighting glass to reduce carbon footprint or utilizing post-consumer recycled plastics (PCR), we ensure the design supports your sustainability agenda without compromising functionality.
Material Selection
Selecting the right materials is critical for ensuring that your packaging meets performance standards and sustainability goals. At NuGen Packaging, we offer a wide range of eco-friendly materials, including glass, aluminum, plastic PCR, paper, and compostable materials. Our team stays informed on the latest innovations in sustainable packaging materials, ensuring that your custom solution is both cutting-edge and eco-conscious.
Prototyping & Testing
Before full-scale production, we develop prototypes to ensure that the packaging meets all functional and aesthetic requirements. We rigorously test the packaging for durability, barrier performance, and environmental impact. This stage is essential for refining the design and ensuring it aligns with sustainability standards, reducing material waste, and optimizing performance.
Production & Quality Control
Our production process adheres to stringent sustainability guidelines, minimizing waste and energy use. We work with trusted partners who share our commitment to eco-friendly manufacturing. Quality control is embedded throughout the process, ensuring that your packaging not only meets industry standards but also helps reduce plastic consumption and landfill waste through the use of recycled and recyclable materials.
Sustainable Decorating & Labeling
In addition to creating environmentally friendly packaging, we offer sustainable decorating and labeling options to enhance the visual appeal of your products. From eco-friendly inks to recyclable labels, every detail is considered to ensure your packaging is as sustainable as possible while still standing out on the shelf.
Supply Chain & Inventory Management
We offer tailored inventory management programs designed to secure your supply chain and reduce carbon emissions. Our GMP-certified warehouse and just-in-time delivery options ensure that your packaging arrives when you need it, reducing the environmental impact of storage and transportation.
Ongoing Support & Sustainability Tracking
Our commitment to sustainability continues after delivery. We provide ongoing support to ensure that your packaging continues to meet your brand’s evolving needs. We can also assist with tracking the environmental impact of your packaging through metrics such as reduced plastic usage, carbon footprint, and recyclability.
