Packaging operations break when systems don’t connect

Packaging and creative teams don’t struggle because of bad design —
they struggle because workflows, assets and product data live in disconnected tools.

This fragmentation leads to:

  • version confusion and rework

  • approval delays

  • compliance risks

  • limited operational visibility

  • Artwork workflows & approvals

  • Digital asset management (DAM)

  • Secure external distribution

  • Operational insights & analytics

Marie Lannebrink

I’ve used Cway® for at least ten years across multiple companies, such as Kavli, Arla and Santa Maria.

Before, storage was unstructured, and tracking was manual. Now, I save half the time on projects and fewer revisions, reduce errors, and lower costs.

I highly recommend it for long term efficiency
