Gates Carbon Drive sought a clean & professional Tech Service Kit custom box design in launching a new train-the-trainer program with large bicycle manufacturers utilizing the Gates Carbon Drive component system. The service kit custom packaging is designed for many use cycles and to be retained by each professional assembly / mechanic site-team over many years.

Specialty contents of the Tech Service Kit are placed within specific foam cut outs for all tools, samples, and documents including:

Gates Carbon Drive Tools: Spring Tension Tester, Strap Wrench, SureFit Installation Tool

Gates Carbon Drive Samples: Several 3-4″ Long “Honey” belt segments

Gates Carbon Drive Documentation: Product Guide, Technical Manual, Sticker Sheet, Journal, QR Coded Training Video Reference Sheet

The custom package design was a multi-team collaboration between Gates Carbon Drive, Strange Bird Designs, and First Impression Print Solutions for initial presentation launch with Specialized Bicycle Company. Multiple tool kit design iterations perfected the sizing to reduce final dimensions resulting in significant cost savings for production, crating, and shipping expenses – significant criteria within custom package design involving large quantity shipments worldwide.
