How Paper Packaging Sample Approval Works: The Checklist That Prevents Rework
The six items BECOPACK reconfirms before production — model, dimensions, lid fit, material structure, printing artwork and carton specification — and how to approve samples without surprises.
Most paper packaging rework starts with a sample that was approved too quickly. BECOPACK's rule is written on the catalogue: before ordering, reconfirm the final model, dimensions, lid fit, material structure, printing artwork and carton specification in the quotation or approved sample. This guide turns that rule into a working checklist, so the sample you approve is the product you receive. Specifications are indicative and subject to final written confirmation.
The six-item approval checklist
Approval item | What to check on the sample |
|---|---|
Model reference | The code matches the quotation — e.g. BC-SB-20, not "a soup bowl" |
Dimensions | Top, base and height match the catalogue sheet for that model |
Lid fit | The lid closes and holds on the exact container, not a similar one |
Material structure | Board colour, coating and structure match what you ordered |
Printing artwork | Colours, print area and registration match the approved artwork file |
Carton specification | Pieces per carton and carton configuration match the quotation |
How the approval round works
Approve in this order: first the model and dimensions, then the lid fit on the real container, then the material and print on the production-grade board. A dimension note marked "reconfirm against a sample" in the catalogue means that model is sample-first by design — do not skip the physical check. Changes made after sample approval restart the confirmation round, so consolidate your changes into one feedback list.
What to send with your sample request
Send the model reference, quantity, board and lid preference, artwork files and destination market with your first inquiry. Sample requests for standard catalogue models move fastest; custom sizes and prints add artwork and structure confirmation before the sample is made. Send yours to ben@becopack.com (WhatsApp +86 151 7861 3502) — or pick the models first from the catalogue.
