Packaging is often the first interaction customers have with your product. It has only a few seconds to catch the eye, share your story, and build trust. A strong label/package design combines clarity, visual appeal, and professionalism. It supports your brand identity, elevates your product, and helps you stand out in a crowded space.

At West of Ordinary, we create packaging that is both beautiful and production-ready. With experience across meat and cryovac labels, food products, tea packaging, retail items, and wellness goods, we understand how to design for real printing environments. Every detail matters, from hierarchy and readability to colour accuracy and file setup.

We begin with a clear concept stage. Before any final design work begins, you receive two complete concepts that align with your brand, product story, and the creative direction we shape together. This allows you to see the full vision upfront before we move into refinement and final production design.

Throughout the entire process, we act as the link between you and your printer. We work directly with your supplied die-lines, set up accurate layouts, and prepare clean, production-ready files. We oversee proofing, handle revisions, and ensure every requirement is met so that your final product prints exactly as intended.

Your final package includes everything you need to move confidently into production. Files are organized, clear, and ready for immediate use, giving you a polished and professional presence from the moment your product reaches the shelf.
