Accelerate™ enables speed to market
Amcor provides a cloudbased digital, end-to-end graphic workflow solution that is revolutionizing the way packaging is realized. Our expert consultants work with your team to design a streamlined, transparent and effective workflow solution.
Working closely with our Catalyst™ collaborative innovation team we can help customers move from from creative concept to market through collaborative innovation and cutting-edge capabilities and resources.
We’ve automated the process of digital file preparation, by reducing a two-stage process with third party suppliers, to just one stage. Doing this, has meant we’ve been able to reduce cycle times by up to 60%.
Digital color workflows are tied directly to the pressroom floor so color intent is never lost. Our experts will ensure every technical detail is covered through the entire artwork-to-print supply chain.

Consumer Research
Inform your packaging decisions with real consumer insight generated from comprehensive qualitative and quantitative research.
Prototyping
Bring your ideas to life quickly! Digital prototyping provides a highly realistic visual of colors, inks, substrates, graphics and package formats. Digital prototypes also serve as a QA tool that allow you to take flat artwork and evaluate placement on a filled and sealed package. See your package on-shelf with 3D environments and share them efficiently.
Physical prototypes have a variety of uses, including graphic treatment and package format visualization, content and package fill evaluation, and consumer testing. Our vertically integrated approach allows prototypes to be made from the same substrate that will be used for your commercial product with functional packaging features.
Graphic Design
Our team of experienced and talented graphic designers can shorten your lead time with our vertically integrated advantage. By designing for printability your art not only looks great but it is press ready upon design approval. By taking into account ink, substrate and surface treatments, this approach saves you time and money, improving your speed to market.
Industrial Design
Our industrial designers develop manufacturable concepts that optimize the function, value and appearance of rigid and flexible packaging.
Our rapid prototyping capabilities help to bring the concept to life in a physical sample for early evaluation. Rapid iterations allow us to quickly fine tune your highly creative and consumer-ready design.
Photography
We offer full service photography and styling. In addition to beautiful photography, our vertically integrated approach saves you time and money by optimizing your product shot for your specific application and print conditions.
Quality Control
Artwork errors on your package are costly. We utilize the latest automated digital comparison tools to provide the highest level of artwork QC possible, removing much of the human error. Our manufacturing expertise ensures every important detail is precisely dialed in.
