Product Boxes
Full-color printed product boxes that make shelves and unboxings pop.
Your product box is the first thing a shopper picks up, so it has to read well on a crowded shelf. We print on sturdy paperboard with the color and finish you need to get noticed.
- Sturdy paperboard in 14pt to 24pt thickness
- Matte, gloss, soft-touch or spot-UV finishes
- Tuck-end or auto-bottom for fast hand-packing
- Low minimums so you can test a launch before you scale
From cosmetics to electronics, the box folds flat for storage and snaps together at packing.
“Child-resistant, compliant in two states, and it still looks premium in the case. Their prepress team caught a labeling issue our lawyer missed.”
“Our takeout boxes stopped leaking and started advertising. Grease-proof board plus one bold color on kraft — simple and it works.”
Board weight is the first decision
Paperboard is measured in points: one point is a thousandth of an inch. A 14pt box feels like a toothpaste carton, fine for light goods riding inside another shipper. At 18pt the box stands on its own and takes embossing well. By 24pt you are holding something closer to a hardcover, which suits electronics and premium cosmetics that get handled hard at retail.
If your product ships loose in a courier network rather than sitting on a shelf, stop at 18pt and put the strength in an outer corrugated box instead. Paying for 24pt board and then hiding it inside a shipper is money spent twice.
Finishes change how the box reads
Gloss lamination makes color pop and wipes clean, the default for food and kids' products. Matte reads quieter and more expensive, and it photographs without glare, which matters more than it used to now that most products get discovered on a phone screen. Soft-touch adds a suede feel people notice immediately; it scuffs more easily, so we pair it with a spot-UV logo that resists fingerprints.
You do not have to choose blind. We print short digital proofs so you can hold the actual finish before the full run.
Inside printing is cheap real estate
The inside of the box prints in the same pass as the outside. A pattern, a thank-you line or setup instructions on the inner flaps cost almost nothing extra and turn the open-the-box moment into part of the product. Cosmetics and subscription brands use this constantly; there is no reason a sauce brand or a phone-case brand cannot.
Sizing tip before you order: build the box around the product with 2 to 3 mm of clearance per side, not more. A product that rattles reads as an afterthought, and a fitted insert fixes it for pennies if your product is an odd shape.
