Role you're checking

Packaging Designer

Design

Packaging Designers in India translate brand positioning into physical containers and printed surfaces — the mono-carton for a Britannia biscuit, the label architecture on a Mamaearth serum bottle, the D2C shipper box that opens the unboxing moment for a BoldCare order. The role sits at the intersection of graphic design, structural engineering, print production, and regulatory compliance: every pack must look right on the retail shelf, survive cold-chain or courier transit, carry mandatory FSSAI or BIS declarations, and be printable within the supplier's flexo or gravure constraints. In India, the discipline is driven by three employment contexts — FMCG in-house teams (HUL, ITC, Nestle, Britannia, Dabur, Emami), funded D2C brands (Mamaearth, Sugar Cosmetics, Plum, Beardo, MyMuse), and specialist packaging studios (Elephant Design Pune, Lopez Design Delhi, Codesign Mumbai). Entry is open to visual-communication or product-design graduates; the career ceiling is Head of Packaging or Creative Director at a major FMCG.
