Design Capabilities
Nampak has access to experienced designers and technical staff offers new product design and development service. Whether working independently to a written brief, or in combination with a client or design agency, the Nampak design team plays an integral part in helping customers achieve the optimum solution to their packaging requirements.
To achieve this the designers use sophisticated CAD/CAM software and modelling facilities. The use of Finite Element Analysis predicts the strength and characteristics of new designs. As a result, pack shape, size and functionality can all be thoroughly evaluated and optimised prior to prototype production.
