Packaging Decisions

Confirm the Package Before Finalizing the Artwork

Dimensions, printable areas and visual proportions depend on the selected package. Artwork should be prepared against an approved template rather than resized at the last minute.

01

Beverage & Process

Review beverage type, carbonation, filling and other project-relevant process information.

02

Can Format

Confirm the intended can family, capacity and compatible end information for the project.

03

Artwork Template

Use the approved package template to organize the visible brand area and required information.

04

Printing Direction

Review available color, finish and production options against the artwork.

05

Label Information

Reserve appropriate areas for ingredients, nutrition, warnings, barcode and importer details.

06

Final File Review

Confirm the approved production file, package reference and project information before release.

Can Selection

Match Format With Positioning and Production Requirements

The package affects shelf presence, serving size, artwork proportions and technical compatibility. Available can formats and ends should be confirmed for the specific beverage and production plan.

  • Capacity and can family
  • Body diameter and height
  • Compatible can end
  • Beverage and filling review
  • Artwork proportions
  • Packing requirements

Artwork Structure

Build a Clear Visual and Compliance Hierarchy

A strong can design must work on a curved surface and still leave readable space for required information. The final content depends on the beverage and destination market.

  • Primary brand panel
  • Product name and variant
  • Ingredient information
  • Nutrition panel
  • Warnings and declarations
  • Barcode quiet zone
Compliance note

Laizhi does not replace the buyer's legal or regulatory review. Final label content should be verified for the destination market before approval.

Visual Direction

Review Finish and Color Against the Artwork

Availability varies by package, artwork, production method and order. Do not select a finish independently from the final design file.

A

Gloss Direction

A brighter reflective presentation that can emphasize color and contrast.

B

Matte Direction

A softer visual appearance that requires artwork-specific feasibility review.

C

Metallic Interaction

Use exposed or simulated metallic areas only after confirming how the artwork and process interact.

D

Color Management

Review brand colors, gradients and production limitations before final approval.

E

Proof & Sample Review

Assess layout, copy and visual direction using the agreed review method.

F

Production File Control

Release only the approved version with clear identification and package reference.

Frequently Asked Questions

Packaging Design & Printing FAQ

Should artwork be completed before selecting the can?

No. The can format should be confirmed first so the artwork can be prepared against the correct template, printable area and proportions.

Can Laizhi review an existing can design?

Yes. Existing artwork can be reviewed against the selected package and available production direction. A review does not replace destination-market legal approval.

Are all printing finishes available for every project?

No. Finish and printing availability depend on the selected package, artwork, production method, quantity and project requirements.

Can blank aluminum cans also be supplied?

Blank-can options may be discussed for suitable projects. The final can, end, quantity, packing and compatibility requirements must be confirmed.

What should a packaging inquiry include?

Please provide the beverage type, filling information, intended can format, end requirement, artwork status, target finish, destination market and estimated quantity.
