Australia-leading technology
We design and manufacture our packaging in our own facilities, giving us control over quality throughout production. Continued investment in equipment and our people helps us maintain consistent quality across every offset litho project.
Our facilities at Kilsyth and Wodonga in Victoria, together with Milperra in New South Wales, manufacture top-quality printed packaging for businesses across Australia.
Art and Graphic Design Services
Our in-house graphics studio creates packaging, merchandising and point of sale (POS) concepts. Our designers work across cardboard and fluted board to create custom packaging that fulfils product, retail and distribution requirements.
Using packaging-specific CAD software and state-of-the-art sample-cutting technology, we produce full-scale prototypes and samples for design validation before production.
Point of Sale Display Specialists
The right construction, materials and processes are essential for producing offset lithographic point-of-sale displays that protect products, create shelf impact and simplify transport and installation. Combining different materials within a single display improves in-store performance and supports stronger promotional campaigns.
Display features are considered during the design stage, including interchangeable dress-up kits, illumination, motion, wire, metal and powder-coated components, plus vacuum-formed plastics, timber and acrylic.
Temporary Displays
Temporary displays are designed for display periods of two to eight weeks and are commonly used for products ranging from confectionery to household goods.
Temporary displays are generally made from corrugated cardboard and feature high-impact offset lithographic graphics.
Semi-Permanent Displays
Semi-permanent displays are generally designed for display periods of 12 to 52 weeks and must be sturdy and well-constructed.
Semi-permanent displays are made from various materials, including corrugated board, vacuum-formed plastic and acrylic.
Strong design and offset lithographic printing reinforce brand presence, particularly for high-end products. You can easily refresh these displays with updated promotional messaging.
Permanent Displays
Permanent displays are designed for display periods of 1 to 3 years and are highly effective for building brand awareness.
Used as shop-in-shop or branded concept areas, permanent displays maximise in-store visibility through offset lithographic printing. They introduce new product categories while reinforcing established brands.
Conceptual Content
Every successful display starts with a strong idea.
Combining creative technology with traditional design expertise, our team develops concepts ranging from quick sketches through to photorealistic visuals that support offset lithographic packaging and point of sale display production.
Designed & Manufactured in Australia
Whatever your retail objective, our in-house design and innovation specialists develop custom point-of-sale displays that support your retail activation from concept through to production.
