SAM – Your Secure, Compatible & End-to-End Artwork Approval Online System

SAM – Spera Artwork Management – is a powerful, web-based packaging management platform, which facilitates the entire packaging artwork process, from inception to full approval, and the resulting digital assets. This highly innovative system combines our global experience in packaging technology, with our understanding of our client needs. As well as streamlining the artwork approval process, SAM gives you complete control of your artwork and expedites delivery, so you get to market on time, on budget and as planned.

When we opened for business in 1969, packaging was a highly complex and specialised process with enormous lead times, a lot of restrictions and, needless to say, heavy costs. Over the years we have seen a great deal of change in the technology involved, from CDI to digital printing. Make no mistake about it, however, it is still a highly specialised process, requiring a steady hand and expert eye. SAM gives you full access to that expertise – and it gives you full control.
