Automatisiertes Dynamisches Design & Verpackungsmanagement
This webinar will be presented in German. Design- und Verpackung sind ein fundamentaler Teil der Innovations- und Neuproduktentwicklungsstrategie von Marken. Es formt eine solide Basis für nachhaltiges Wachstum und die Aufrechterhaltung von Kundenloyalität, weilVerpackung das einzige Elemenmt ist, das einen direkte uphysische Verbindung zwischen der Marke und dem Kunden aufbauen kann. Trends wie Personalisierung und regionale Variationen treiben das Wachstum von SKU’s in der gesamten Konsumgüterindustrie weiter an und …stellen hohe Anforderungen an die Flexibilität der gesamten Verpackungs-Wertschöpfungskette. Eine immer größer werdende Komplexität in immer kürzeren Zeitfenstern zu bewältigen muss sich im entsprechend ausgerichteten Design- & Verpackungsprozess wiederspiegeln.

Razionalizzare e automatizzare il processo di innovazione delle vostre confezioni
This webinar will be presented in Italian. Le marche oggi si trovano ad affrontare alcune tendenze di mercato, come ad esempio la personalizzazione del loro prodotto o la localizzazione, con cicli di vita dei prodotti sempre più brevi. Quindi la pressione per ottenere prodotti perfettamente corretti e il più rapidamente possibile, è in costante aumento. La gestione di un crescente portafoglio di prodotti in continuo cambiamento conduce ad un pesante carico di lavoro che non può essere gestito in modo efficiente tramite e-mail tradizionale, fogli di calcolo e prototipi fisici.

Quality Control Tools for the Brand Packaging Workflow
Errors in packaging are costly – not only in a material sense but also in terms of brand equity, reputation and future business success. According to the FDA, 50% of food and drug recalls can be attributed to labelling errors. With thousands of products, hundreds of SKUs and counting, keeping track of the accuracy of packaging has become a challenging and error-prone process. There is no question that quality control for printed packaging is essential for every company to be confident in releasing products to market.

Rationalisez & Automatisez le processus de conception de vos emballages
This webinar will be presented in French
Aujourd’hui les marques sont confrontées à certaines tendances du marché, telles que la mise en adéquation de leur produit avec le consommateur intégrant les données de personnalisation ou de localisation, tout en relevant le défi imposé par des cycles de vie des produits plus courts. Par conséquent la pression visant à fournir des produits parfaitement profilés dès la première approche et aussi rapidement que possible, est en augmentation constante. La gestion d’un portefeuille de produits sans cesse croissant et changeant conduit souvent à une charge de travail écrasante qui ne peut plus être gérée de manière traditionelle au travers d’e-mails, de feuilles de calculs ou de maquettes physiques.

Beschleunigen und Automatisieren Sie Ihren Design - & Packaging Prozess
This webinar will be presented in German
Markenartikler sind heute Trends ausgesetzt wie z.B. der zeitnahen Personalisierung oder Regionalisierung ihrer Produkte. Gleichzeitig wird der Lebenszyklus von Innovationen und Stammprodukten aber immer kürzer. Infolgedessen steigt der Druck, auf Anhieb die richtigen Produkte so schnell wie möglich auf den Markt zu bringen. Ein stetig wachsendes und sich kontinuierlich veränderndes Produktportfolio zu managen, führt meist zu massivem Arbeitsaufwand. Anhand traditioneller Arbeitsweise (Kommunikation per E-Mail, Informationssammlung in Excel-Listen, Genehmigung physischer Print Proofs, etc.) ist dieser kaum zu bewältigen.

Consumer Insights in Packaging: Quantifying Perception and Cognition
Traditionally, package design has been very product-focused in nature: design decisions were largely driven by factors that improved shelf life, reduced damage or cost or enhanced production efficiencies. Although these are, and will always be, important drivers in packaging design decisions, more and more frequently packaging designers are also employing a user-centered approach. When viewed through the lens of consumer insights, packaging has the potential for value add, becoming more than a commodity driven necessity.

Saving time and money with virtual packaging design solutions
Prototyping is an important part of the packaging design process and we create prototypes for a wide variety of reasons. They might be created to test the structural integrity of the design, or to check that the design meets the marketing need or to see the visual impact of new design concepts and choose between them. But physical prototypes also have some big disadvantages. They can be time-consuming and costly to produce, eating into your lead-time and budget. And there are some specialty features we use in packaging that simply cannot be reproduced with a physical prototype.

Color Everywhere (and everywhere the same)
Your brand colors are a critical component of your brand's equity but maintaining color consistency can feel like an insurmountable challenge. Brand Managers often struggle to communicate color specifications across the supply chain. If you can't adequately specify and communicate your brand colors, how can you possibly validate compliance or track supplier performance?

Capture savings by uncovering the REAL costs in packaging artwork management
Today's battle for the consumer is on the retail shelf and your package's "shelf shout" has to be better than ever. Packaging artwork is a key asset you can use to ensure that you get noticed. Managing artwork design and development requires a balance between the creative and technical sides of packaging. Creativity in packaging design can really set your product apart from the competition. But those technical details, the barcodes, marketing copy, logos and regulatory content, can really slow you down if they're not managed well.

Do you control your packaging or does it control you?
The packaging supply chain presents many challenges. Functions are often performed in "silos" inside a company or between different companies. The players can be located around the world: in different time zones, using different tools and speaking different languages. All these participants must perform flawlessly under extreme time pressure. Managing expectations and handoffs between these different players is not only challenging; it's also a major source of errors and delays.
