Impact for designers. The world's leading CAD software for packaging designers. Impact covers everything you need through one integrated product - designed to make packaging design fast, simple and accurate.
There’s simply nothing else out there that compares.
Impact CAD has been evolving since 1988, based on feedback from our customers and our own experience of packaging. We’ve developed the features you want to make packaging design simple and cost-effective.
Ideal for packaging designers
Initial design is streamlined and made easier through a set of fully interactive drawing tools that accurately reflect the end product.
Whether starting from scratch or importing existing work, results can be achieved with speed and guaranteed for accuracy. It’s even possible to get instant feedback on rule length, area, and weight and waste calculations to make sure you stay on track.
Library of designs
You’ll have access to a vast library of existing packaging designs that’ll give you a flying start to any project.
The designs are simple to customise, bespoke to the materials you use and cover every industry standard. Your time is freed up so you can use your skills to create something unique.
Faster approvals
Our Impact CAD software helps you get buy-in for your packaging designs through easy soft-proofing that allows you to create virtual 3D samples and animated prototypes that can be shared with the customer, enabling them to see exactly how everything fits together.
The software is fully compatible with your plotters and sample makers, providing straight-forward production of physical samples and mock-ups.
Team work
Impact enables you to share your packaging designs with your team, storing all the work in one, easily accessible place. If you have a multi-site operation then our supporting suite of software can extend this team-working function to a national and global level.
Different languages? Different units? No problem. Teams can work together from around the world in any way they want.
