Next, our Creative Services team develops your packaging design. This includes die lines, artwork layouts, and pre-press preparation. Because everything is handled in-house, we can quickly revise designs, streamline approvals, and keep your project on schedule. In addition, our team ensures your branding and functionality align perfectly.
Engineering and Technical Services
Then, our engineering team identifies the right materials for your application. We evaluate performance requirements, product compatibility, and production needs. At the same time, we collaborate with trusted suppliers to explore new materials and tooling options. With us, you gain access to innovative solutions that support your product goals.
To ensure performance, we conduct extensive testing. Of the many tests used in the LMI laboratory, the most typical include seal integrity, peel force, and product compatibility. The LMI laboratory also supports post on-site technical service. Our testing is conducted through real-world application LMI and in your production facilities to verify the overall integrity of the lid and make sure your product performance is meeting and exceeding your expectations.
On-site LMI technical service support ensures the efficient integration of our lidding with your packaging equipment.

We employ rigorous testing protocols designed to ensure the product we deliver meets the specific and unique needs of each customer, product, and market segment. Our testing is conducted through real world application to verify the overall integrity of the lid and make sure your product performance is meeting expectations – with no surprises.
