About Package Graphics

From a Texas prepress shop to your packaging partner.

We started in Texas in April 2000 as a small prepress business serving a couple of packaging printers in Louisiana and Texas. Our customers accepted nothing less than the best, and we quickly became a top-quality shop for every type of packaging.

Packaging has changed, from labels to printed bags and cartons, and so have we. Today we work directly with businesses that want one partner for design and prepress. AI now speeds up the creative. Our experience keeps every file true to the press.

  • Startups and new brands

    New product labels, branding development, launch consulting and printer connections.

  • Packaging printers

    Flexo and offset file conversions, artwork rebuilds, plate-ready files and contract proofs.

  • Brands and manufacturers

    Consistent layouts across product lines, archive files, format conversions and CAD changes.

What we design

Every format your product ships in, built for press.

AI helps us explore more directions, faster. Prepress experience makes sure the one you choose prints exactly as approved, on your printer, at your size, in your colors.

How we work

From first idea to press-ready file, in five clear steps.

AI gives you more to react to, sooner. Our team does what AI cannot: builds the artwork around your printer, your substrate and your final print.

  1. 01 Step one

    Concept development

    Tell us about the product, the shelf and the printer. We use AI to explore concept directions fast, then shape the strongest ones by hand.

    Concept directions to react to
  2. 02 Step two

    Design

    The chosen direction is built on your printer's template, with consistent layout, type and imagery across the whole product line.

    Full artwork on the real dieline
  3. 03 Step three

    Revisions

    You mark it up and we refine. Every round is checked against print specs, so a late change never breaks the file.

    Approved artwork, spec-checked
  4. 04 Step four

    Production-ready

    Final files are trapped, separated and output to your printer's exact requirements, for flexo, offset or digital.

    Press-ready PDFs, archived
  5. 05 Step five

    Contract Proofs

    Optional target color proofs are available based on SWOP standards used by most commercial printers.

Every file leaves our hands with

The production details that separate a nice design from a package that runs clean on press.

  • Trap set to press specs
  • Line screen and separations
  • Verified barcodes
  • Retouched, color-true images
  • Archive-quality storage
Why production experience matters

A design that can't print is only half a package.

Having a great logo is a half measure. Building your product line with a consistent layout and images makes your first impression the best one. We build every piece of artwork with the final print in mind, because packaging is what we have done for 25 years.

Send us your brief
01What does prepress actually mean?

Prepress is everything between an approved design and a printing plate. We convert your artwork into a print-ready digital file: template-specific, color-accurate and built to the exact specs of your printer, including trap, line screen and color separations.

02How does AI fit into your packaging design?

AI helps us generate and explore concept directions far faster than sketching alone. Every direction is then refined by our designers, and the final artwork is built and checked by prepress specialists. You get the speed of AI with none of the print risk.

03Will AI-designed packaging actually print correctly?

Yes, because it never goes to press as a raw AI image. We rebuild it in CMYK and spot colors on your printer's template, set trap and bleed, place verified barcodes and output a press-ready PDF.

04Can you work with my printer?

We have worked with all types of printers since 2000, flexographic and offset, and we build files to their exact print specifications. If you do not have a printer yet, we can connect you with one that fits your product and run size.

05What types of packaging do you design?

Folding cartons, poly bags and pouches, labels, continuous sleeves and complete packaging concepts for new product lines, for food, cosmetics, supplements and retail.

06Do you handle FDA nutrition panels and UPC barcodes?

Yes. We build FDA nutrition panels into your artwork and include high-resolution, verified barcodes in your files. We can also supply UPC barcodes printed on adhesive labels.

07What files will I receive?

08I only have a product idea. Can you still help?

That is a great place to start. We help startups with new product labels, branding development and consulting for the product launch, then carry the design all the way to production-ready files.Book a Consultation today
