Collcap Cosmetic Packaging
You know the plethora of elaborate perfume bottles that are gathered around the dressing table of your wife/girlfriend/sister/mother (delete where appropriate), have you ever wondered how they are designed? Wonder no more!
Stratasys have released a case study detailing how Collcap Packaging use an Objet printer to create bespoke cosmetic packaging for their customer base.
The British company purchased a Stratasys Objet 30 Pro because of its ability to print in a multitude of materials and because it can print transparent material, a must for a cosmetics company.
Having the 3D printer allows Collcap to place a finished prototype in a customer’s hands within a matter of hours as opposed to a matter of weeks previously. When the customer makes inevitable amends, that process is drastically sped up.
“Traditionally if you put a product in a customer’s hand and they don’t like it, to then make those changes would be a several week process: to change the designs, agree them again, do the modifications and tooling. By having a 3D printer what we’re able to do is, print the model, put it in the customer’s hand, if they want some changes? Great! We can turn that around in a matter of days as opposed to a matter of weeks” Adam Smith, Technical Manager
