Prize Crate specs
Setup notes and briefing numbers for Prize Crate.
Crate build and branding points
The Prize Crate specs page explains the packing structure and branded elements behind the prize setup. Use it when your campaign needs clear detail on how the crate is assembled and presented.
Prize Crate specs sets out the crate size, outer finish, internal fill, and where each branded piece sits when opened. Use it for competition hampers, lucky draw displays, and handover moments where the packing needs to read neatly from the front. SA activations often move between office parks, malls, and hotel venues, so the crate has to travel well and still present cleanly on the table.
The page is useful before print goes live and again before stock is packed. Measurements, logo positions, filler type, and insert quantities should be checked against the final prize mix, not only the mock-up. One venue photo still helps, especially when the crate must face a registration desk, stage wing, or promo counter.
What the specs page covers
Expect a packing breakdown that records the crate shell, lid treatment, tissue or shred colour, product order, and any message card included in the reveal. It also helps the team note which items are visible on opening and which can sit lower for protection. That matters when the prize pack includes glass, tins, tech items, or mixed merchandise heights.
Match Prize Crate specs with the campaign brief before extra items are added at the last minute. The final review should cover branding artwork, stock counts, crate condition, and courier labelling if units are moving between cities.
- Crate dimensions matched to prize contents
- Visible branding checked from opening angle

Venue conditions around the crate
Prize crates often travel from Gauteng to launches in Durban or Cape Town, so the spec should note lid security, corner protection, and any fragile contents. Mall campaigns and campus activations also need practical carry-in sizes that fit service passages and standard trestle tables. When a crate is part of a draw mechanic, reserve space for winner cards, seals, or numbered tags.
At Durban and Cape Town venues, sea air can soften some card stocks and affect how labels sit after packing. Gauteng dust shows quickly on dark crate finishes, acrylic signs, and glossy prize sleeves, so wipe-down checks matter before handover. Power cuts also change prep windows when branded light units or battery items form part of the display.

Details to include in briefing
Send the intended prize list, target quantity, brand colours, and the opening view you want guests to see first. Include any items that must stay upright, chilled, wrapped, or hidden until the handover. If the crate will be photographed, mention the hero side and whether copy must face front.
Add venue type, transport route, and who will do the final on-site packing check. It also helps to note whether the crate is for one winner, multiple regional draws, or a display sample only. That record makes it easier to trace what was packed into each unit when stock is reconciled later.
