Milk carton shaped gift boxes take an instantly recognisable outline and turn it into a fun package for small gifts, party favours and treats. The pinched top closes into a little peak that doubles as a natural place for a tag, ribbon or sticker.
Getting the top to close well
The pinch-top only looks right when the box is filled to a sensible level. Too empty and the sides collapse; too full and the top will not pinch. Size the box around your specific contents so the peak folds crisply and holds its shape on display.
Material and finish
- Corrugated board for a firmer body
- Pinched top for tags or ribbon
- Custom size, printed to your artwork
Because the carton has a distinctive outline, plan the artwork so the design flows around the shape rather than fighting the folds. Consider how the boxes are displayed, as the pinched top gives a natural hanging or standing point, and a small tag or ribbon there can finish the presentation neatly.
Made to order from 100 units on corrugated board. Request a sample so you can fill it with your own contents and check both the closing action and how the print wraps the carton shape. If the packaging will be in direct contact with food, tell us your food-contact and handling requirements when you enquire so a suitable board can be confirmed.
