**Case Study: Sleeve Box (1)** This is a case where we received an order for a **clip-specific sleeve box (4 types in total)** from a customer in the precision metal processing industry, featuring a retro world view. To assist a customer who was confused about their first packaging production, we accompanied them through the following processes to achieve both "ideal texture" and "practical holding power." Visualization of the image and paper selection: In response to the abstract request for a "retro feel," we presented multiple reference samples. By allowing them to physically compare the samples, we quickly confirmed the ideal direction. Thorough adjustments based on the actual product: Initially, we faced the challenge of the clips falling out. However, by checking the actual product, we redesigned the size down to the millimeter. After submitting multiple adjustment samples, we arrived at the optimal holding feel of "not falling out even when shaken, yet easy to insert and remove." Response to a variety of designs: In response to the specification of four different designs, we conducted careful color proofing, achieving a quality that received feedback from the customer stating, "The colors are perfect." We were not just an order-taking company; we shaped the customer's commitment as a "manufacturing partner" that persistently responds to unexpected challenges.

**Case Study: Sleeve Box (2)** *Pattern with Sleeve Only (No Base Box)* This is a case where we received an order for paper sleeves to be attached to plastic containers for food from a customer engaged in wholesale synthetic resin products. In order to address a challenging situation where three other companies could not agree on costs to supplement the insufficient labeling area of the containers, we led to a solution through the following processes: **Optimization Based on Actual Products:** We received two types of actual containers (square and round) along with sleeves from other companies, and we adjusted the shape in millimeter increments to ensure adequate display area while maintaining "ease of attachment." **Thorough Cost Adjustment:** In reconsideration of the specifications and estimates, we changed the surface processing to meet the initial desired unit price (below @9.00–10.00). We achieved a price that the customer found acceptable. **Support for First Paper Product Order:** We carefully addressed the customer's detailed concerns, such as the reuse of foil plates and the presence of machine calibration, as we progressed. Ultimately, we landed on a high-end specification that combined solid black printing with foil stamping. We delivered a sleeve with side application using "NEW Pigeon (260g)." This case has established trust as a partner for future expansion, with full-color development also in mind.

[Case Study: Box with Inner Partition (2)] This is a case where we received an order for a custom package for mascara containers from a customer who develops cosmetic products. The biggest challenge was "to securely fix the mascara itself so that it does not move inside the box." To address this issue while balancing design and functionality, we solved the problem through the following processes. Integrated proposal for "inner cushioning": We designed a dedicated inner cushion that firmly holds the product. The high evaluation of the white dummy (plain sample) presented during the initial meeting dispelled concerns about product protection. Special processing and regulatory support: In addition to visualizing the contents through "window cutting," we carefully responded to inquiries about the legal obligations regarding the display of plastic marks, providing samples of the window film along with materials from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. We provided comprehensive support to alleviate concerns about the new specifications. Attention to detail in three-color printing: We adopted three-color printing, including white ink, to achieve a sophisticated appearance characteristic of cosmetic brands. Ultimately, we delivered a "side-opening format (caramel box)" with an inner cushion. Our meticulous adjustment capabilities in shaping the customer's commitment to their product led to the creation of a highly satisfying package.

Case Study: Bottom One-Touch Box (1) We received an order for the production of cosmetic boxes from a health food company. Following a price increase from their original cosmetic box manufacturer, they consulted us and, appreciating our prompt response and professional proposals, have entrusted us with the entire project. As an example, we implemented the following initiatives: Quality Optimization: We reviewed the current product and pointed out that the paper was thinner than expected. By changing to an appropriate thickness, we achieved both quality assurance and cost reduction. Quality Control: To maintain the cleanliness required for health food products, we paid close attention to printing defects and other issues. Printing Support: We proposed corrections to the submission data before printing, preventing mistakes before they occurred. Due to the trust we have built, they now request our services without obtaining competitive quotes, and we will continue to strengthen our collaboration in the future.

Example: Other Shapes (1) This is a case where a customer, who distributes amenities to over 3,000 hotels nationwide, chose our company as a partner to meet the request of their business partner to "create a meticulously crafted original box." In the high-end amenities market, where customers were not satisfied with overseas products or traditional bag packaging, the following points were decisive in securing the contract: Careful dialogue to supplement expertise: By avoiding technical jargon and clearly presenting the "issues" and "solutions," we ensured that even those without knowledge of boxes could understand the solutions. Our commitment to shaping ideals within budget fostered trust. "Consumer perspective" advice: Instead of merely following instructions, we proposed insights and improvements from the perspective of guests who would actually use the amenities, highlighting points that might be overlooked. This overwhelming experience differentiated us from competitors. Multiple proposal patterns to support negotiations: During the estimation and sample creation phases, we presented multiple options. This created a positive cycle that facilitated smooth negotiations between our customer and their business partner. In scenes where "luxury" is required, providing packaging that balances design, cost, and a reassuring sense of reliability led to the creation of highly satisfying packages.

**Case Study: Other Shapes (2)** This is a case where we received an order for custom boxes specifically for cookies from a customer who supplies tea leaves and other food products to hotel cafes and bars. Initially, the consideration began with special shapes such as "triangular" and "dome-shaped," but through repeated prototypes, we pursued both design and practicality, ultimately arriving at the **"Roof-shaped BOX."** Flexible prototyping and design changes: For dimension changes that arose during meetings, we created new drawings and cut samples each time. We pursued the ideal shape without compromise, carefully finalizing the specifications over more than six months. Surface treatment to enhance luxury: In the final process, we applied "press coat processing" to the proof prints, confirming a glossy finish that ensured quality suitable for a luxury hotel. Response to complex printing: We adopted "New Pigeon 310g" material and achieved a meticulous color expression by adding a spot color (1C) to full-color (4C) offset UV printing. From the start of consultations in March to the official order in December, we persevered in our support. We delivered an elegant and substantial package based on a red color scheme, helping the client realize their "first-class service."
