Use the catalogue shape
Shortlist SKUs with the right format, then confirm capacity, components and dimensions. Color, printing or other decoration can be discussed for that model.
Compare modelsCUSTOM PACKAGING / DESIGN & MOLD
Start with the shape you need.
Compare WDPACK's existing models first. If the shape or construction needs to change, packaging design and mold development can be discussed against your brief.
FROM EXISTING FORM TO NEW SHAPE
A bottle reference makes the design discussion concrete.
The same capacity can have very different shoulders, closures and dispensing parts. Compare a supplied WDPACK model first, then mark the points the new pack must change.

CHOOSE A DEVELOPMENT ROUTE
How far does the existing model need to change?
Product photos and supplied drawings show a starting point. The final route depends on the selected model, intended contents and approved sample.
Discuss design and mold work
Bring a reference bottle, sketch or drawing and identify what must change. WDPACK lists packaging design, mold development and artwork sampling among its services; scope and terms need project review.
Describe the changeDEFINE THE PACK
Specify the complete pack, not only the silhouette.
These choices determine which existing model to compare and what a new design must resolve. Record what is fixed and what can change.
01 / CONTENT & CAPACITY
What goes inside?
State the intended product, target fill volume and any compatibility concern. The formula and filling conditions need checking against the selected packaging.
Bring: product type and target volume.02 / BOTTLE & DISPENSER
How should it dispense?
Mark the bottle body, neck, pump or cap and any dimensions your filling line or carton requires. Photographs alone cannot confirm component fit.
Bring: preferred SKU or reference views.03 / BRAND & ORDER
What must it look like?
Separate shape changes from color, printing and surface finish. State the estimated order quantity so the practical route can be reviewed.
Bring: artwork or visual reference.
BUYER CHECKLIST
Mark what must change on the reference.
- Intended contents, target fill volume and dispensing method
- Reference bottle or drawing with the neck, body and closure changes marked
- Target capacity and dimensions that must fit your filling line or carton
- Artwork, estimated quantity and destination market
- Component fit and formula compatibility checks for the sample
Photos help compare form and finish. Neck dimensions and functional fit need a drawing or physical sample.
FROM BRIEF TO APPROVED FORM
Five decisions before a new form goes into production.
This is a working sequence for a design discussion. WDPACK's documented order process controls the eventual proofing and approval; drawing scope, mold terms and timing are confirmed for the project.
- 01Output: a reference model or a clear gap.
Compare existing models
Identify a catalogue SKU closest to the required volume, dispensing method and proportions.
- 02Output: a design brief with fixed dimensions.
Mark required changes
Specify body shape, neck and component constraints against reference photos or a drawing.
- 03Output: agreed scope and quoted terms.
Review the development scope
Ask which changes can use an existing model and which require design or mold development.
- 04Output: comments or an approved sample.
Proof the proposed pack
Review the physical bottle and its assembled parts; check appearance, dimensions and intended use.
- 05Output: a specification for the order.
Confirm production reference
Record the approved sample, component set, artwork and inspection points in the bulk specification.
APPROVAL POINTS
What should the sample settle?
Keep the physical sample beside the agreed drawing and written specification. A good-looking render cannot establish fit or use on its own.
Review WDPACK inspection criteriaShape & dimensions
Compare the shoulder, body, base and critical fitting dimensions with the agreed reference.
Components & use
Assemble the bottle with the selected closure or dispenser and check fit and the intended dispensing action.
Appearance & finish
Confirm color, artwork position and visible surface quality when those are in scope.
Order record
Agree the final configuration, packing and relevant acceptance points before bulk production.
DOCUMENTED ORDER PATH
Approval happens before bulk production.
WDPACK's original process chart runs from customization requirements and bottle selection through proofing, sample approval, production, delivery and after-sales support. Confirm timing and commercial terms for your own project.
Review all nine steps
MANUFACTURING CONTEXT
Approve the form with production in mind.
Appearance is only one part of the decision. Confirm component fit, critical dimensions and the functional checks that apply to the intended contents before bulk production.
DEVELOPMENT QUOTATION
Know exactly what is being priced.
A new silhouette may require a different scope from decorating an existing model. Ask for the tooling and sampling terms in writing before approving the project.
- Development route
- Whether an existing model fits or a new mold is needed for the specified bottle and components.
- Proofing scope
- Drawing, physical sample, expected review rounds and what each proof represents.
- Tooling terms
- Any mold or sample charge, timing, ownership and storage arrangements.
- Bulk trigger
- Approved sample, final specification, quantity and agreed production terms.
START WITH YOUR REQUIREMENTS
Prepare an inquiry Bring a model or a reference to the first discussion.
Include the intended contents, capacity, dispensing format, dimensions to verify, artwork and estimated quantity.
