Our Approach

A clearer route from brief to evidence.

Move from the initial packaging need to a defined specification, supplier confirmation and a review of the records available for the selected configuration.

Project Route

Four stages from packaging need to project evidence.

Each stage confirms a different part of the project and produces a visible result for the next decision.

  1. 01
    Packaging sketches, blank brief papers and material notes arranged on a warm ivory worktable.

    Brief

    Confirm the product, use case, quantity, target market and available references.

    Project result
    A clear project brief and a visible list of open questions.
  2. 02
    Cream, kraft and forest green packaging boards and material samples arranged for direction exploration.

    Specification

    Confirm size, material direction, structure, print, finish and functional requirements.

    Project result
    A defined specification direction for supplier discussion.

    Supplier Confirmation

    Check the proposed supplier route against the selected specification and project requirements.

    Project result
    A confirmed route with remaining supplier questions made explicit.
  4. 04
    Blank packaging specification sheets and folders arranged as a production documentation set.

    Evidence Review

    Review the available material, scope, supplier and test records for the selected configuration.

    Project result
    A project-specific record list with any evidence gaps kept visible.

Supplier Screening

Check the proposed route against the actual project.

Supplier and format questions stay tied to the requested structure, material direction and evidence needs. A material scene illustrates the review route; it is not proof of a factory audit.

  1. 01

    Supplier capability & project fit

    Check the proposed supplier and format against the requested structure, market, quantity and customization range.

  2. 02

    Material and structure confirmation

    Confirm the selected material, component and structural direction against the proposed specification.

  3. 03

    Supporting documentation review

    Review relevant material, supplier and test files before a verified statement is used.

  4. 04

    Configuration-specific evidence

    Keep evidence tied to one supplier, one material, one structure and one project configuration.

Documentation

Review the records around the selected project.

The project review focuses on what each file covers, which supplier or test route it relates to and whether it applies to the proposed configuration.

  1. 01

    Material & Component Scope

    Check that the files describe the selected material, components and proposed structure.

  2. 02

    Supplier & Test Evidence

    Review supplier declarations and applicable technical or test information for the project.

  3. 03

    Project-specific Availability

    Record which files are available for the chosen product, specification and supplier.

Request a Packaging Data Pack

Documentation availability varies by product, specification and supplier.

European Requirements

Review the final packaging configuration for its intended market.

For EU-facing projects, consider the complete material and component structure, packaging minimisation, empty space, labelling and the records relevant to the intended market.

Read the PPWR Guide

The review does not make a category automatically compliant. Final regulatory suitability depends on the specific packaging configuration, material composition, intended use and applicable market requirements.

  1. 01

    Material composition

    Review the complete material and component structure.

  2. 02

    Packaging minimisation

    Consider structure and material use for the final configuration.

  3. 03

    Empty-space considerations

    Review pack fit and avoid assumptions based on the category alone.

  4. 04

    Documentation & labelling review

    Check the records and labelling questions relevant to the intended market.

Quality Control

Set the review points for the selected project.

Any inspection scope is confirmed per project. Testing and final-record scope are defined only after the specification and supplier route are clear.

  1. 01

    Sample Review

    Review the proposed sample against the agreed size, structure, material and finish direction.

  2. 02

    Specification Confirmation

    Confirm the specification that will guide the selected project route.

  3. 03

    Inspection Scope

    Define any inspection or checking scope required for the specific project.

  4. 04

    Final Records

    Keep final approvals and available supporting records tied to the confirmed configuration.
