When students from Bowling Green State University’s Visual Communication Technology (VCT) program joined Dynamic Dies, Inc. for a co-op experience, they weren’t just learning the ropes of packaging production—they were helping design something that would end up in the hands of a college football legend. The project challenged students to design a custom box for BGSU Football that would later appear in an unboxing video with Coach Jon Gruden, a former Super Bowl–winning head coach and ESPN...

Case Study: Inventor’s Toolkit Packaging

Collaborative Color Strategy + Fine Detail = A Showcase-Worthy Box The Challenge The Inventor’s Toolkit packaging was bold in both design and ambition.

The trickiest elements? Rendering two distinct turquoise shades using just one ink color Managing registration across thin...

Case Study: MSA – The Safety Company (500 Series Accessories)

Bold Black Coverage Meets Clean Detail on Corrugated The Challenge MSA’s 500 Series Accessories packaging needed to do two very different things on the same surface. First, it had to deliver deep, full-coverage black for bold branding across wide areas of the box. Second, it needed to print a midtone-to-shadow image with delicate contrast, where subtle details mattered. Both elements relied on black ink, but required two totally different print treatments. On top of that, the substrate was...

Case Study: Scotch Tape Packaging

Transparency, Tricky Patterns, and an FTA-Winning Finish The Challenge Scotch Tape’s corrugated packaging needed to do something few designs can pull off: make bubble wrap look like bubble wrap on a rough, uneven substrate. The image was subtle by nature—minimal shadows, mostly highlights and midtones—and had to hold up on press without disappearing into the board. On top of that, the brand’s signature plaid pattern (black, yellow, and red) added complex trapping and registration challenges...

Case Study: World Market Beverage Carrier

Ink-on-Ink Effects and Vintage Texture—Without Losing Clarity The Challenge World Market’s red-and-beige beverage carrier wasn’t your average print job. The design called for full beige coverage underneath red artwork—an unconventional request. Add to that a vintage-style speckled distressing effect and fine copy across the panel, and you’ve got a recipe for potential ink clashes, coverage issues, or lost detail. Our Approach This job was all about collaboration, especially with the ink...

Case Study: Penn Bakery Packaging

Turning Design Limitations Into Award-Winning Print on a Legacy Press The Challenge Penn Bakery brought a charming, picnic-style pattern to the table—intended for the interior of their box. The design featured solid fills paired with dashed, screened lines to simulate a gingham or checker pattern. While the concept was visually appealing, the way it was built wasn’t compatible with direct print on corrugated. To make matters trickier, the printer assigned to this job was working with a very...
