Frequently asked questions

What does a packaging designer do?

A packaging designer creates high-quality packaging for consumer products to maximize the product’s appeal to the target audience. Market research has shown that the right packaging can boost product sales and enhance a company's brand identity.
Packaging designers are involved in every step of the design process. Their responsibilities include:
  • Communicating with clients to understand the product design they're looking for
  • Producing and refining dielines and prototypes in response to feedback from clients and other stakeholders
  • Collaborating with graphic designers and marketing services to ensure new products are part of a coherent marketing strategy

How much does a packaging designer cost?

It depends. An independent packaging designer who's just starting out might charge as little as $100 for a packaging design they can then showcase in their portfolio. A small design firm or startup could charge around $10,000 for a consumer product packaging design, while an established packaging design agency might bill the client $50,000 or more.

How do I become a good packaging designer?

To attract the attention of top packaging design companies, you will likely need a bachelor's degree in graphic design, industrial design or a related discipline. However, if you have a strong portfolio with case studies showcasing your design solutions and product packaging skills, that could compensate for any lack of formal qualifications.
The modern packaging designer also needs strong technology skills. such as experience in web design, social media, digital design tools, and 3D software programs. Soft skills like collaboration and empathy are also important since a packaging designer has to receive and act on input from a wide range of stakeholders.
Knowledge of digital marketing and e-commerce are excellent differentiators if you're looking to become a top packaging designer. The best packaging design agencies look for designers with a flair for building brands from scratch or rebranding failing products.

What is the difference between a graphic designer and a packaging designer?

Graphic designers mostly work in 2D and are primarily concerned with the look of a product (logo design, for example). Packaging designers also make 2D sketches and dielines but are also concerned with the materials the packaging is made from and how it will feel in the hands of a consumer. A brand design using glass, for example, presents a different set of challenges and opportunities than one using cardboard.

What should I know about packaging design agencies?

There are all kinds of packaging design agencies, from award-winning design studios to startups. There are creative agencies all around the United States but you'll find many top packaging design companies in places like New York City, Los Angeles and San Francisco.

What are the benefits of hiring a packaging designer?

A good packaging designer can help a consumer products company with its brand strategy and messaging. A product with eye-catching or well-crafted packaging may acquire a brand identity that sets it apart from the competition.
