Custom cardboard boxes cover the ground between stock cartons and a purpose-built pack: you specify the dimensions, closure and print so the box suits your exact product and how it is handled. That flexibility makes them a starting point for retail, storage and shipping alike. The freedom to set every dimension is the value here, but it also means the specification is only as good as the brief behind it.
Starting from the product
The best specification begins with the packed product and its journey. Made to your custom size in cardboard, the box can be dimensioned so the fit is close, then matched with a wall strength and closure that suit the weight and handling, rather than forcing a product into a size that nearly works.
Specifying the box
- Internal dimensions taken from the packed product
- Wall and closure chosen for weight and handling
- Print from a plain box to full outer artwork
Because the design is yours to define, a prototype is the surest way to confirm the fit and handling before you commit to a production run. Because the design is entirely yours, a first sample doubles as a check on both the fit and how the artwork prints on the chosen board.
