Technical Elements in Packaging

Folds. Folds are represented by broken lines which indicate areas to be folded. Be extra careful with this step, you wouldn’t want any unpleasant folds in your packaging. While in those situations, the packaging material might have something to do with such folds.

But you can always add some cross marks on the sides to indicate where to cut or fold. Having that as your guide, carefully use the other tip of a cutter (which is not sharp) to mark the folds. Remember to use a ruler to guide you.

Flaps. If wide paper or packaging material isn’t available, you can always divide your parts onto another piece of paper or art board. Add flaps in areas where you would want to connect the pieces, and same goes with the previously mentioned. If you are to fold the flaps, do follow the steps as mentioned above.
