    You can use this books as reference (there are many on the collections), but by experience, making a packaging is a complex thing.

    If you are not aware of the weights, thickness of material, resistance, way it will be produced, print technology and a large list of etc, it's quite likely you will fail miserably.

    Six pack means it will need to carry a some weight. also, you may have to think about anti-moulding finishings/paper, as it will possible be stored on a fridge. If you add handles and they break, somebody will remember your name.

    SOOOO, if you are a web designer... please do some comps and handle the project over to a packaging designer. Or be prepared for embarrassment.

    • Very true. The box manufacturers can't take any old design from anyone and make it work.doublespaced
    • Folds, glues, varnishes, UPC rules, ingredients, type guidelines (standards) are all a must.doublespaced
