One contact, from brief to proof

The person who understands your brief is the one preparing your files.

A 5-point check

Before anything goes to the printer, every file gets the same check.

Export is our daily work

Languages, regulatory mentions, importers, barcodes: our daily work for the Andros group.

Clear feedback loops

Every comment is logged, applied and checked, with no time wasted.

01

Brief & scope

Before drawing anything, we pin down what won't change: target markets, the printer's template, regulatory texts and deadlines. That is what avoids surprises at proof stage.

02

Routes & range system

We present creative routes, then build a system: what stays fixed from one product to the next, and what changes. A range reads at a glance, and every new SKU is quick to roll out.

You receive

Creative routesRange rules
MIAM — ready-meal range label
Cusco — range system, one colour per effect

MIAM and Cusco: a fixed structure, one variable per product (colour, name). Shoppers find their way on shelf.

03

3D mock-up

You see your jar or bottle before the first print run: volumes, legibility, shelf impact. We sign off on the product, not on a flat file. The same renders then serve your presentations and e-commerce.

04

Artwork & checks

The invisible step that makes the difference. We prepare print-ready files to your printer's exact template, and every file gets the same 5-point check before it leaves.

Country versions

One label, many markets: each country has its language, mandatory mentions, importer and barcode. We adapt without touching what makes your brand, and keep every version up to date.

You receive

Proof, print & e-commerce

You sign off the proof knowing exactly what you approve. We stay available to the printer until production, then deliver packshots for your product pages, in the format your retailers require.
