How to save time on your artwork design

Here is a short cut to a quick artwork design process: Use the virtual toolbox TurnAvisual which is now also available for mobile devices. Within minutes, it lets you create and see your packaging with artwork in 3D.

Skip lengthy approval processes and expensive shipping of packaging mock-ups with the online tool TurnAvisual, developed with support from RPC Superfos.

The tool improves and changes the way you work with packaging artwork design, because it lets you develop your artwork packaging in 3D on a screen. Without having to install 3D software on your computer you can work professionally with your packaging process online and save time-to-market.

Display design online
Working with TurnAvisual is very easy; a few clicks is all it takes to generate a draft that you can share with others online. You can get the necessary feedback from the involved parties 24/7; and you do not have to be in front of a computer to work with the tool; it also works on tablets and smartphones.

Product Designer at RPC Superfos, Dorte Cetti explains the basic steps of packaging art work design with TurnAvisual:

“You start with selecting your favourite packaging solution from RPC Superfos in the 3D library. This could be UniPak. Then you download the keyline from the library, apply your artwork to it and then upload the pdf again to the library. Only moments later, you get a visualisation of you packaging in 3D. It is even revolving. Your 3D files can be shared on mobile devices using dedicated apps or simply as 3D pdf files. This is an extremely fast way to share your creation with others and invite them to give you feedback.”

Secure and private library
The system is secure and confidential information can be hidden. It is possible to create a shop-in-shop solution to which only dedicated people have access. You can even create your own private library and have several libraries - for instance if you have a handful of brands which each have their design teams.

It is free for RPC Superfos customers

“Here we have a great platform for brand owners and designers to come together virtually while working on the decoration of our packaging. It will speed up time-to-market, save costs and take design work to the next level,” says Dorte Cetti.
