**Case Study: Lid and Body Assembly Box (1)** We received an order for the original packaging of souvenir canelés. In pursuit of a sense of luxury suitable for the hotel's branding, we addressed the request with the following examples. Thorough pre-research and on-site visits: After the inquiry, we promptly visited the site. Before the business meeting, we explored the surrounding area to deeply understand the brand image and proposed a prototype with a "wood grain" design that matched the hotel's atmosphere, gaining trust through preparation that exceeded customer expectations. Attention to texture and sample provision: In response to the request for a box that one would want to store as carefully as a jewelry case, we sent a variety of samples from the pre-order stage. We created an environment where the texture and gloss could be checked one by one, supporting the selection of satisfactory materials. Adaptation to SDGs policy: Respecting the hotel's stated SDGs policy, we proposed and realized packaging that leveraged our strength in paperboard rather than plastic. With our extensive knowledge as professionals and flexible proposals, we transformed the customer's vague image into a concrete form, completing a package that received high satisfaction from the purchasing customers.

**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 aesthetic. 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 concept and paper selection: In response to the abstract request for a "retro feel," we presented multiple reference samples. By allowing the customer to physically compare them, we were able to quickly confirm 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." Adaptation to a variety of designs: In response to the specifications of four different designs, we conducted careful color proofs, achieving a quality that received feedback from the customer stating, "the colors are perfect." We shaped the customer's commitment not just as an order-taking vendor, but as a "manufacturing partner" that responds persistently to unexpected challenges.

[Case Study: Sleeve Box (2)] *Pattern with sleeve only (no body 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 of synthetic resin products. In order to supplement the display space of containers that lacked sufficient label application area, we consulted with three other companies, but could not reach an agreement on costs. We resolved this challenging issue through the following process: Optimization based on actual products: We received two types of actual containers (square and round) and sleeves from other companies, and adjusted the shape down to the millimeter to ensure both the display area and ease of attachment. Thorough cost adjustment: We reconsidered the specifications and estimates by changing the surface processing in response to the initial desired unit price (less than @9.00 to 10.00). We achieved a price that the customer found acceptable. Support for the first paper product request: We carefully addressed the customer's detailed concerns, such as the reuse of foil plates and the presence of machine calibration. 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 us as a trusted partner for future expansion, with an eye towards full-color development.

【Case Study: Caramel Box (3)】 We have been receiving package production orders from a cosmetics company for over 20 years, and the specific examples based on our trust relationship are as follows: Proposal for on-site improvements from a professional perspective: In the design of complex folding processes, we not only considered the mechanical feasibility but also the manual assembly burden after delivery, proposing realistic compromises from the perspective of the on-site personnel. Feedback on submitted data: We pointed out potential mistakes from a professional viewpoint regarding the order details, addressing issues without hesitation and preventing errors before printing. Response to short delivery times: Leveraging our strength of performing everything from die-cutting to pasting in-house, we achieved a tight schedule of "delivery in one week," which is usually challenging. These proactive responses and stable quality and delivery times have led to a long-term business relationship.

[Case Study: Hell Bottom (Bottom Assembly) Box (1)] This is a case where we received a request from a customer selling whitening gel to create packaging for their product. Initially, we were contacted regarding specifications for a "Hell Bottom Coat Ball 220g," but considering the product's characteristics and sales scene, we proposed the following optimizations from a professional perspective. Review of structure and strength: To ensure stability during in-store sales and accommodate the product's weight, we increased the paper thickness to 310g. Addition of surface protection: To enhance the protection of the printed surface and improve aesthetics, we upgraded to a specification that includes a vinyl coating. Precise design through physical confirmation: We received the actual container from the customer and conducted fitting checks down to the millimeter. This enabled a smooth and speedy production process without hesitation. Ultimately, we provided a high-quality package that matched the brand image of the "New-DV 310g" product, featuring a design based on a refreshing sky blue and equipped with functionality.

**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 and carefully refined 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 alongside the client. We delivered an elegant and substantial package based on a red color scheme, helping the client realize their "first-class service."
