How to price a laminate and send a quote
Flexible Laminate Cost Calculator · step by step
app.globalpackagingnetwork.com
STEP 1 · PACKAGING DIRECTORY
Everything lives inside one app.
The Packaging Directory lists approved suppliers from around the world.
Search by industry and location, then shortlist the ones you like.
Post an inquiry — and suppliers reply to you inside GPN.
STEP 2 · FLEXIBLE LAMINATE
The Flexible Laminate Cost Calculator gives you five tools.
New quote prices a laminate against a cost model.
Saved quotes reopen and recompute at today's rates.
Quotations bundle several quotes for one customer into a total.
Shared quotes hold everything suppliers have sent you.
STEP 3 · COST MODELS
A cost model is the rate table your quotes are priced against.
Start from a ready template — CI Flexo, Stacked Flexo or Gravure.
Public models can be used by everyone. Private models stay yours.
STEP 4 · BUILD YOUR MODEL
Building your own model takes a single screen.
Name it, choose the country, and decide who can see it.
Share it with specific people by email — they can quote with it, never edit it.
Then add your materials, inks, coatings, adhesives and pouch types.
STEP 4 · SAVE
One tap on Save, and the model is live.
Every quote you build from here uses these rates.
STEP 5 · START A QUOTE
Now the quote itself.
Start a new quote and pick the cost model to price it against.
STEP 6 · PRICE THE JOB
Enter the job on the left.
Quantity, repeat, open width, printing process and print type.
Build the structure layer by layer — 12 PET, 50 PE.
The costing on the right updates as you type.
Laminate price per kg: 203.02.
STEP 7 · SEND THE QUOTE
Scroll down for price per pouch — and the send panel.
Choose the customer and contact, then set a validity date.
Send it on WhatsApp or by email in one tap.
Three documents are ready: job cost sheet, quotation,
and quotation with full cost break-up.
STEP 7 · SHARE INSIDE GPN
Sharing inside GPN shows the customer only what they need.
Job, structure, quantity, price and validity.
No cost break-up. No rates.
The copy is locked — editing your quote later won't change what they hold.
STEP 8 · THE BUYER'S INBOX
On the buyer's side, every quote received lands in one inbox.
Filter by calculator and compare price per kg side by side.
LIVE means the supplier's quote is still valid.
CLOSING
From inquiry to quotation in minutes, not days.
