Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the packaging world, unlocking rapid concept generation and previously unthinkable creative possibilities. But while AI can create countless virtual container designs in seconds, one crucial challenge remains: how to turn these ideas into real, reliable, and production-ready packaging.
At SIPA, we’ve taken this challenge seriously—and we’ve gone a step further than most. We are among the very few companies in the industry with a proprietary AI platform: EVA – Echo Virtual Assistant. Developed entirely in-house, EVA is designed to bridge the gap between creative ambition and technical feasibility, transforming how packaging innovation happens.
“EVA is not just another AI tool—it’s a fully integrated system, built by SIPA, for SIPA clients,” says the Packaging Development Team. “It empowers our engineers with enhanced creative speed while ensuring every concept meets real-world requirements from day one.”
More Than Creativity: Real-Life Challenges Need Real Engineering
AI-generated designs often lack the critical checks needed for real-world use. Packaging must comply with safety standards, resist physical stress, fit into existing supply chains, and support sustainability goals. That’s why SIPA developed EVA as a comprehensive solution—combining intelligent design support with deep engineering validation.
Where many rely on third-party software, EVA is exclusively owned and operated by SIPA, maintaining full control, confidentiality, and alignment with our production capabilities.
Inside EVA: A Smarter, Faster Way to Innovate
EVA enhances every phase of packaging development:
- Discovery & Briefing: EVA analyzes and organizes technical data (preforms, neck finishes, container specs), cutting preparation time by 50%.
- Ideation: Generates creative variations securely from SIPA’s internal database—delivering 50% more iterations and up to 75% faster results.
- Evaluation: Validates feasibility using SIPA’s global packaging knowledge base, detecting issues early and reducing project risk.
- Design: Converts concepts into complete engineering packages with 3D rendering, FEM analysis, and rapid mock-ups—all developed in-house.
- Execution: Translates digital designs into prototypes and production-ready solutions through tooling, blow molding, lab testing, and line startup.
What Makes EVA Unique
- Proprietary Technology: EVA is SIPA-owned and SIPA-developed—no third-party dependencies.
- Confidential and Secure: All data stays within SIPA, safeguarding client information.
- Efficiency and Control: Reduces time-to-market with superior technical accuracy.
- AI + Human Synergy: Supports, not replaces, SIPA’s engineering expertise.
EVA in Action: Innovation You Can Trust
SIPA’s EVA has already proven its value across multiple customer projects, where speed, precision, and confidentiality were critical. By pairing AI-powered design with decades of SIPA know-how, we ensure each solution isn’t just smart—it works.
“Artificial Intelligence alone can inspire,” says the team, “but when powered by SIPA’s real-world packaging experience, it delivers. EVA is how we turn AI potential into packaging reality.”
