Euforik

Packaging

Packaging is bought twice: once as a tool and once as a unit price. Plates, dies and moulds are paid for at the start and then quietly hold the work in place, artwork and colour take more rounds than the launch plan allowed for, and the pack still has to survive a pallet, a lorry and a customer who blames you for the dent.

Euforik finds converters, printers and contract packers, compares them on the whole brief, from structure and colour to who owns the tooling, and keeps prices and documents in view for years after the first run.

From the need to the supplier you keep

From identifying a sourcing need to managing the supplier relationship that follows. Euforik brings the entire journey together, helping teams move from sourcing to long-term supplier management.

Demand identification

See what you are already buying: spend, prices and renewal dates from your ERP, so the categories worth sourcing and the contracts about to lapse show up early.

Discovery

One search for direct and indirect suppliers anywhere in the world. Describe what you need in plain language and get suppliers that fit, with the reason each one matched.

Validation

Every supplier checked against your requirements, from capability and quality to finance and compliance, with the evidence to back it up.

Outreach

RFIs, RFQs and RFPs written and sent for you. Suppliers answer through a link, Euforik follows up, and the replies come back in one place.

Negotiation

The agent shows where your leverage is, from your own history with a supplier and what the market is doing right now.

Contract

The agreement drafted in your own template, with everything the supplier committed to already in it.

Spend

What you spend with a supplier, read straight off your ERP data. Per category, per period, next to the unit price that moved it.

History

Every purchase line and every delivery booked against them. A price that drifted upward over two years is a chart, and the on-time rate is a figure rather than an impression.

Files and dates

Agreements, certificates and insurance in one place, each with the date it lapses. You hear before it does, not when somebody needs it.

Relationship

Who you deal with there and who owns it here, with the notes your team left on the account beside them.

Monitor

Rules you write yourself, checked every night against spend, delivery, expiry dates and the news. You hear when one is crossed.

Projects

The work in flight on a board your team shares. Each project carries what it is for, who owns it, what it is worth and the date it is due.

What Euforik helps you manage

  1. 01

    Corrugated and transit packs

    A case is engineered for the stack and the journey it has to survive. Euforik compares suppliers on performance as well as price per thousand, and keeps damage claims next to the price.

  2. 02

    Labels and barcodes

    A label has to stick, survive a freezer or a wash-down, and scan at the customer's end. Euforik finds printers that can prove all three.

  3. 03

    Flexible film and pouches

    Whether a film runs on your machines matters more than how it looks in the hand. Trials and their results sit next to each supplier's quote.

  4. 04

    Bottles, jars and closures

    Rigid packs are bought by mould, and the closure has to work on the line you actually run. Euforik sources the container and the closure together.

  5. 05

    Plates, dies and cylinders

    Origination is a real cost and a quiet lock-in. Euforik settles who owns the tooling and what a transfer costs before the first run, and writes it into the contract.

  6. 06

    Contract packing

    Co-packers sell line time, so what matters is free capacity in your window. Euforik finds packers near where you need them and compares their availability and terms.

  7. 07

    Recycled content and material data

    Brand owners and reporting both need the material data for every pack. Euforik collects it from your suppliers up front instead of at reporting time.

From the brief to the first run

A packaging project usually arrives with a date attached. Euforik shows which prices rose with board and film costs and which agreements end mid-season, then finds converters, printers and packers close to where the pack has to be made or filled, since freight on empty packaging is expensive.

Structure, print quality, certification and minimum order are compared for every candidate. Tooling is quoted apart from the unit price so you see both, and the agreement carries tooling ownership the way you wrote it rather than the way a printer's terms read.

Starting from a dieline

Give the agent a dieline, a packaging specification or last year's quote, and it drafts the requirement, including what a specification usually leaves to a conversation, such as colour tolerance and who owns the plates. Then it finds converters, printers and contract packers and runs the RFQ.

After the first print run

Packaging suppliers stay for years, and the record keeps the next artwork change from starting at zero. Approved artwork, material data, certificates, prices and damage claims are kept per supplier, so a board or film increase shows up the month it happens.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The agent reads dielines, specifications and old quotes and turns them into a requirement covering structure, print, finishing, quantities and lead time, ready to send to suppliers.

Yes. Describe the work and where it has to happen, and Euforik finds packers nearby and compares them on line speed, minimum run, certification and free capacity.

Yes. Tooling ownership, storage and transfer costs are settled before anyone quotes and written into the agreement, drafted in your own contract template.

Yes. Prices per supplier and per month come from your ERP, which is how you tell a material increase that reached everyone from one that reached only you.
