Our Process
At Hexa, we offer more than just manufacturing — we offer a creative partnership. From concept to completion, we work hand-in-hand with you to bring your tabletop game vision to life. You bring the ideas and imagination, and we bring the craftsmanship, experience, and dedication to quality that turns great ideas into unforgettable products.
step 1
REQUEST A QUOTE
Every project starts with a conversation.
At HEXA, we listen carefully to your ideas and turn them into detailed quotations that match your vision.
Your Project Manager will guide you through each step — from choosing materials to optimizing costs — making sure every option fits your creative goals.
step 2
design verification
Every great game begins with well-prepared design files.
At HEXA, our Design Verification process ensures your dielines, artworks, and 3D models are error-free and ready for production.
Our prepress and engineering teams review your files, suggest practical adjustments, and prepare digital e-proofs for approval — helping you avoid costly mistakes and ensure perfect alignment before sampling begins.
Whether it’s paper, plastic, or wood, we make sure your design is production-ready with both precision and care.
step 3
PRE-PRODUCTION
Before mass production begins, your vision comes to life through a real, physical prototype.
At HEXA, our sampling process ensures that every component — from printed pieces to plastics — matches your expectations in color, finish, and structure.
You’ll receive detailed digital proofs first, followed by full physical samples upon request. Our engineers and project managers carefully review each piece with you to confirm materials, accuracy, and overall feel.
This is where your board game truly takes shape — helping you refine the final details and giving complete confidence before we move forward to full production.
step 4
mass PRODUCTION
Once your samples are approved, production begins — and our team at HEXA takes over with precision and consistency.
Every material, color, and process follows the verified specifications from your approved prototype. Our production partners are experienced in board game manufacturing, ensuring high-quality printing, die-cutting, and assembly at every stage.
Throughout production, your Project Manager provides progress updates and quality checks, keeping you informed and confident that your project is on schedule and up to standard.
We make sure each piece meets the same level of excellence that brought your prototype to life — ready to move on to assembly and packaging.
step 6
shipping
The final step of your journey with HEXA — getting your games safely delivered to you and your players around the world.
Once production and packaging are complete, our logistics team coordinates every detail of shipping, from factory to your chosen destination. We work closely with trusted freight partners to ensure smooth customs handling, accurate labeling, and safe transportation.
Whether you’re shipping to fulfillment centers, distributors, or direct to backers, we help optimize shipping plans to balance speed and cost.
From start to finish, HEXA makes sure your games arrive on time, in perfect condition — ready to be played, shared, and enjoyed.
