    Collcap offers an extensive development and delivery service for a range of products. The company specialises in new product development, which accounts for 40% of its business and benefits from an in-house design team that both create and solve technical problems. The company now offers one of the industry's fastest bespoke fulfilment offerings, without sacrificing quality or functionality.

    Working to an open brief or defined specification, Collcap guides its customers from the initial stages of a project's development to the delivery of the finished article.

    Collcap has a global outlook, its presence and work philosophy both forthcoming and responsive, with a close-knit dedicated team overseeing the company's world-standard service offer. Development times are short as a 3D design service offers insight into the product outcome before manufacture. A 3D model of a customer's product can be provided in 72 hours from approval of CAD virtual designs, which in turn reduces lead times and manufacturing costs. Each development has its own unique project timeline.

    The following is a general guide to the company's three main categories of product development:

    Existing product with new decoration:

    • 3 weeks for printed samples into the customer's hands, from receipt of artwork and colour target
    • 13 weeks for delivery to customer adddress via sea freight, from PO and sample approval
    • If air freight is requested, then this is usually 9 weeks from PO and sample approval to customer address

    New product with plastic tooling:

    • From drawing approval, tooling in plastic usually takes 50 days for a sample to be delivered to the customer for approval
    • From approval, delivery to the customer is 9 weeks for air-freight or 13 weeks for sea-freight

    New product with glass tooling:

    • 5 weeks from pilot tooling, for printed samples to reach the customer
    • From customer approval, completion of the tooling takes another 5 weeks
    • From completion of the tooling, delivery to the customer takes another 13 weeks

    Specialising in primary packaging, Collcap provides solutions for the cosmetic, fragrance, and personal care industries.
