Cougar Packaging Solutions has been helping companies improve packaging performance and reduce costs for over 50 years. Our team understands that packaging is more than just a box; it is an important factor in protecting products, improving shipping efficiency, and presenting a professional brand image. With our packaging design services, clients benefit from solutions that are practical, reliable, and sustainable.
Why Choose Our Industrial Packaging Design
Industrial packaging design is about creating packaging that works as hard as the products it protects. We focus on protection, cost savings, and functionality, so that businesses can deliver their goods with confidence. Our approach covers everything from structural strength to ergonomic handling. This allows us to provide packaging that helps reduce damage, lowers shipping expenses, and improves efficiency for production and warehouse teams.
Compliance is also a key part of our service. Many industries face strict regulations on labeling, materials, or shipping methods. Our packaging design process takes these requirements into account from the very beginning, so clients can avoid costly delays or product returns.
Regional Expertise – Serving Illinois & Beyond
Cougar Packaging Solutions proudly provides industrial packaging design in Illinois and across the Midwest. Illinois is a hub for manufacturing and distribution, and our team works closely with local businesses to deliver packaging that matches their needs. Being close to our clients allows us to conduct on-site assessments, gather accurate information, and respond quickly to new challenges.
While Illinois remains a central focus, our services extend throughout the region. We support companies in surrounding states with the same high standards of design and customer service.
Sustainable Packaging Focus
Sustainability is a core focus for modern businesses, and we have invested in practices that support environmentally conscious operations. Our work with sustainable product packaging in Wisconsin highlights this commitment. By introducing recyclable, biodegradable, or reusable packaging options, we help clients reduce their environmental impact without sacrificing performance.
We look at the entire life cycle of packaging, from material selection to end-of-use disposal. By reducing weight and size, we lower shipping emissions and cut down on waste. Clients benefit from packaging that aligns with consumer demand for eco-friendly solutions while still meeting all performance standards.

Our Four-Step Design Methodology
LISTEN & LEARN
We start by gathering information on the product, performance needs, and cost requirements.
DESIGN & PROTOTYPE
Using engineering tools and practical experience, we create prototypes that demonstrate how the packaging will function.
TEST & CONFIRM
We use our decades of experience to know what works and what doesn't and work with a trustworthy packaging test lab when real data is necessary.
