Packaging for Hunter makers, wineries and food brands

The Hunter produces wine, cheese, olive oil, chocolate and craft beverages that sell through cellar doors, markets and online. A packaging design agency in Newcastle plans for mandatory labelling, barcodes and print limits, so your design survives the move from screen to production.

From our Perth base we support Newcastle clients through video, messages and shared files. The time difference is small, so most questions get an answer the same day, and meeting in person is always an option.

  • Wine label rules considered
  • Cartons and gift boxes
  • Shelf mock-ups

Common situations

What Newcastle clients usually ask us to solve

Hunter wine and craft beverage producers

Hunter wine and craft beverage producers must follow labelling rules and still stand out on shelf. We design labels and cartons that satisfy mandatory requirements and show your story.

Food, cheese and condiment makers

Food, cheese and condiment makers sell through markets and retailers. We design packaging that looks premium, tells provenance and prints correctly.

Gift and boutique products

Gift and boutique products rely on presentation. We design boxes and wraps that make products feel special.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

Ask your own →
Do you supply dielines?
Yes, matched to your printer's specifications, so artwork lines up exactly when it is printed.
Can you design a whole range?
Yes, with a consistent system across variants, so the range looks like one family.
Do you handle required label text?
We lay out the content you supply and flag common requirements, which you confirm with the relevant authority.
Will you show how it looks on a shelf?
Yes, with realistic mock-ups that show how the pack will look next to competitors.
Can you work with our printer?
Yes, from proofs to final artwork, so colours and cuts come out as intended.
Can you redesign existing packs?
Yes, keeping what works and improving what does not, based on how shoppers respond.
What do wine labels require?
Mandatory information such as producer, volume, alcohol content and standard drinks, depending on rules. We design around it and recommend you check final text.
Can you design cartons and gift boxes?
Yes. We work from dielines supplied by your carton or box maker, design the artwork to fit each panel and fold and prepare print-ready files so the finished pack matches the proof.
How do you approach sustainability?
By choosing recyclable materials where possible, avoiding unnecessary layers and including clear recycling information on the pack. We balance sustainability with protection and shelf appeal.
Do you test shelf impact?
Yes. We create mock-ups and place them beside competing products, in photos or on screen, so you can see how the pack stands out, and adjust colour, size and wording before printing.
