THE PROCESS IN PRACTICE
Turn a Packaging Requirement into a Development Brief
Research and development starts with understanding what the packaging needs to do. Tsimis’s laboratory supports customers in improving existing products and developing new applications, with testing and sample development carried out in collaboration with the customer.
Discuss the Material Properties
Barrier requirements may concern oxygen, moisture or other properties defined for the application. Specify the properties and assessment criteria that matter to your product.
Evaluate with Samples
Testing and sample production support the discussion of new products. Customer feedback and the intended packing conditions are part of evaluating the proposed application.
PRACTICAL ANSWERS
Your questions,
answered.
Can R&D support an existing packaging project?
Yes. Technical support covers improvement of existing products as well as development of new ones. Explain what works in the current pack and what you want to change.
What is useful for the first development discussion?
Bring the product description, current structure or sample, packing conditions and the requirement you want to address. Include any existing test criteria or customer specification.
Are samples part of development?
Testing and producing samples in collaboration with customers are part of Tsimis’s R&D capabilities. Discuss the scope and evaluation needs of your project with the team.
YOUR NEXT STEP
Prepare your packaging brief.
Start with your product, pack dimensions, packing process and artwork. Add quantities and the change you want to achieve. You can begin with the information you already have.
