The DDC has customer-centric spaces that encourage collaborative efforts towards innovative packaging solutions. The facility includes a state-of-the-art prototyping shop and an International Safe Transit Association (ISTA)-certified testing laboratory.
Clients are invited to participate in lab testing, design reviews, and hands-on development, offering an interactive experience that integrates them into the design process.
The DDC will prioritise sustainable practices by improving design efficiency, thereby reducing costs for customers.
This is achieved by reducing material waste and enhancing product protection throughout the supply chain.
