Send the product or part's outside dimensions, weight and a photo showing any fragile edges, protrusions or surfaces that must not touch the cavity. A physical sample is useful when the shape cannot be described reliably by dimensions alone.
Tell us whether the pack is for retail display, food contact, internal handling or export shipment. Note whether it needs a lid, ventilation, stacking, automated picking or a particular carton arrangement. These conditions affect the structure before material thickness is chosen.
An existing model may fit the target dimensions and order volume. Compare its published size, material, weight and packing fields first. If the item cannot be held or displayed correctly, a new cavity or closure can be reviewed from the part or drawing.
Check fit, appearance, closure, handling and empty-pack nesting on a physical sample. For shipment, test the intended carton quantity and orientation. The approved sample and agreed product fields should be retained as the production reference.
Include the model if known, product photo or drawing, target size, expected quantity, destination market and any use-condition requirement. Unknown technical fields can be left open for review instead of guessed.
