See it in practice
Fit for, and not for
Fit for
- Physical-product brands — food, beverage, cosmetics, retail — preparing for a print run or a launch
- Needing files a Spanish/EU printer accepts on the first submission, not the third
Not for
- A digital-only brand refresh with no physical print run (see Brand Identity Design)
- Exploring packaging concepts before any product is close to production (start with Brand Strategy or Brand Identity)
- A single business-card or stationery reprint (see the smaller scope inside Brand Identity Design)
Questions about packaging & print design
01 What is a "press-tested" file, exactly?
A file checked at real size and bleed, in the correct colour profile (CMYK or the Pantone spec agreed at Open), against a press proof — not just eyeballed on a screen. That’s what stops a printer bouncing it back.
02 Do you manage the actual print run, or just hand over files?
Files are always handed over. Production management — coordinating with your printer through the run itself — is included at Premium or purchasable as an add-on (€1,200) at any tier.
03 What if my printer bounces the file after delivery?
That’s what stage 05 (Balance) and the press-proof review exist to catch before delivery. If a file we’ve delivered is genuinely rejected on technical grounds after Close, we fix it at no extra charge — the file didn’t meet the brief we agreed.
04 How many SKUs does each package cover?
One at Essential, up to three sharing a structural system at Growth, up to six at Premium. More SKUs are quoted as additional scope, not silently folded in.
05 What if I need to cancel after the die-line is approved?
Full refund minus payment fees before Open begins; the 30% deposit is non-refundable once Open starts; work already at Draft or Balance is invoiced against what’s delivered. Full terms: Refund & Cancellation Policy.
06 Do you work with any Spanish/EU printer, or only specific ones?
Any — files are prepped to standard Spanish/EU press specifications so they work with your existing printer, or we can recommend one if you don’t have one yet.
07 Is IVA included in the price shown?
No — prices are ex-IVA. Spanish IVA (21%) is added as a line at checkout.
