Design of new Fibre Based Packages Produced by Moulding Techniques

In order to launch new package formats the production of mock-ups is an essential part of the developmentprocess. In particular, in packages formed from fibre materials by moulding techniques, the productionof tools such as the male and female moulds, is a time consuming and expensive sequence. The overallprocess from a new idea to a package involves several key parties. The artistic 3D form of the package aswell as the graphic lay-out involves the work of designers. The development of material fit for the mouldingpurposes involves, besides material development, the knowledge of converting processes, such as cutting,creasing, and the production of cutting and creasing plates. Furthermore, knowledge of mechanical engineeringand understanding of the mould presses is essential in the production of moulds. Typically this complexoverall process generates delays in the production of mock-ups. However, there are possibilities in all processstages for improving performance, and fluid collaboration between different parties involved will contributeto a faster throughput in the development of new package formats. The focus of this paper is on the design ofpackages.
