Customization Aluminum Packaging Process

Step1: Ideation & Shape

Tell us what you imagine. Send us sketches, reference photos, 3D renderings, technical drawings — or simply describe your concept. Prefer something already proven? Choose from our library of over 300 existing molds sorted by capacity, shape and industry (cosmetics, beverages, spirits, automotive, etc.).

Step2: Caps, Pumps & Accessories

Perfect functionality meets perfect style.
Select from hundreds of standard spray actuators, lotion pumps, screw caps, flip-tops, crimped valves or supply your own components. We test everything for 100% compatibility with your formula and filling line.

Step3: Professional Design & Physical Samples

See and feel your idea in real life. Our engineers create precise CAD drawings, photorealistic 3D renderings and actual physical samples — 3D-printed prototypes or hand-made aluminum samples. Approve the shape, size and feel before we move forward.
