What exactly does Now New Next do?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Now New Next builds brands and packaging that make sense. Strategic, creative, and ready for the market. Everything comes together in one clear process: from brand story, positioning, and visual identity to packaging design, material choices, PPWR compliance, and the full rollout. The result is a future-proof whole that stands out, sells, and is built to last. We call that future-proof packaging design.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”2. Why do you approach brand and packaging together?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Because consumers see brand and packaging as one whole too. Packaging is your brand in action. A brand without strong packaging lacks impact. A beautiful package without a clear brand lacks direction. We make sure brand, design, and message strengthen each other.<\/p>\n
<\/h2>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”3. Why do clients choose Now New Next?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Because Now New Next makes sure your packaging works from A to Z and meets the right requirements. From strategy, design, sustainability, and legislation. Not scattered across three different agencies, but handled by one team in one clear process. We stay closely involved and keep up with the latest developments. With Now New Next, you know exactly where you stand.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”4. When is it time to refresh your brand or packaging?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
When your brand no longer matches your ambition. When your packaging does not stand out enough. Or when legislation, sustainability goals, or a new target group require different choices. That is the moment to redefine your direction.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”5. How does packaging design help build a brand?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Packaging is often the first real contact someone has with your brand. That is where everything needs to come together: recognition, trust, appearance, and choice. Good packaging design makes your brand visible, tangible, and distinctive at a glance.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”6. What makes packaging stand out on shelf?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Packaging stands out when it grabs attention, is instantly clear, and fits the brand. It should make choosing easier. It should feel relevant to the target group. And it should not only work as a design, but also in practice, production, and on shelf.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”7. What does future-proof packaging mean?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Future-proof packaging is what Now New Next is built around. It means your packaging will not be rejected in two years because of legislation, retail requirements, or changing consumer expectations. We actively track PPWR developments, Gen Z trends, and material innovations. We translate that knowledge into choices that work today and hold up tomorrow. You do not have to keep track of it all yourself. That is exactly why you hire us.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”8. What do you mean by sustainable packaging?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
For us, sustainable packaging goes beyond using less material or giving something a greener look. It is about smart choices in material, shape, use, logistics, and end of life. We understand the legal requirements and what retailers expect from brands. We look for solutions that are better for the brand, for people, and for the system as a whole.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”9. How do you look at PPWR and packaging legislation?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
We do not see the PPWR as just a threat, but as a clear direction for the market. It pushes retailers and brand owners to look more critically at material, volume, recyclability, and relevance. We translate that legislation into concrete design and material choices. No legal jargon, just a clear view of what is expected and what that means for your packaging.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”10. How do you work with AI?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
We use AI as an accelerator, not as a replacement. It helps us with exploration, research, and speed in certain stages of the process. Strategy, creative decisions, and final judgement always remain in human hands.<\/p>\n
That matters to us, because brand and packaging work require insight, taste, and direction. That is exactly where we make the difference.<\/p>\n
We also take privacy seriously. Your brand data does not end up in public AI systems through us. And because human direction always stays central, the basis for copyright remains properly safeguarded too.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”11. What does a project cost?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
We offer two types of collaboration: project-based work and ongoing support. Most of our work is project-based, focused on one clear objective with a defined beginning and end. For ongoing collaboration, we offer PaaS, Packaging as a Service, where you receive continuous support for a fixed monthly fee.<\/p>\n
A project includes multiple concept directions and one fully developed design, including positioning, branding, logo, packaging design, DTP, claims, and production specifications. Projects start from \u20ac5,000. The total price depends on the number of packs and the complexity of the project. We are transparent about that before we begin, and you will receive a no-obligation proposal with clear deliverables.<\/p>\n
[\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”12. How long does a project with Now New Next take?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
A scan or focused advisory question can be completed within two weeks. A full rebrand or packaging range usually takes several months. We work at pace, keep progress on track, and stay in control of the process. We work towards your deadline in a focused way. In practice, we are often faster than our clients, because this is our core business and our passion.<\/p>\n
And above all, we are always happy to help.<\/p>\n
Now New Next. Future-proof and future-proud, designed for confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][\/dipl_faq_page_schema][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Sectie” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#000000″ custom_css_free_form=”.gecko .et_pb_newsletter .et_pb_newsletter_field{|| margin-bottom:0px!important;|| ||}||||.et_pb_newsletter{|| padding:0px!important;||}||||.et_pb_newsletter_button_wrap{||flex-basis:50%!important;||}||||.et_pb_newsletter_form{|| padding-top:0%!important;||}” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” global_module=”1400″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,1_4,1_4,1_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” width_tablet=”92%” width_phone=”92%” width_last_edited=”on|tablet” max_width_tablet=”” max_width_phone=”” max_width_last_edited=”on|tablet” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nownewnext.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Scroll-Group-4-1.png” alt=”LOGO” title_text=”LOGO” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|||25px|false|false” custom_padding=”|40px|||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font=”|600|||||||” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font_size=”35px” width=”100%” custom_margin=”|||25px|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”||||false|false” header_font_size_tablet=”30px” header_font_size_phone=”30px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\nCONTACT<\/h1>\n
