- Production Technology
- The reason why this packaging was unique not only because its shape was unusual, but also its materials was special. In order to improve the quality and smoothness of packaging, they chose the fine pearl paper and used laser cutting technology, which made the scales of Koi more clear and the whole packaging more three-dimensional and vivd.
- Design Challenge
- Most rice packages in China are made in plastic bags. As a New Year gift, this kind of rice has not only Chinese traditional elements but also high-end auspicious implications, which is difficult to package. After the originality is determined as Koi carp, the requirements for subsequent materials and production technology are also very high. Through continuous cutting pressure testing, we finally achieve the effect of complete scaling without cutting off.

- Operation Flow
- By comparing the effects of various papers, they finally adopted fine-grained Pearl paper, which can better highlight the texture of smoothness and brightness, as well as the combination of laser cutting technology and manual, to make the scales turn up slightly, so that the whole packaging has a more three-dimensional sense.
