Round Cardboard Boxes
Cylindrical cardboard boxes with lids, any size.
A round cardboard box is a plastic-free package for anything that suits a cylinder: candles, cookies, gifts, dry goods. The lid lifts off and the wall protects.
Add a food-safe liner for edibles or keep it kraft.

“We were burned by a supplier who ghosted after payment. These folks sent photos from the press run without being asked. Trust earned.”
“We sent them a candle jar and a Pinterest board. Two weeks later we had rigid boxes that made a $28 candle feel like a $60 one. Our repeat rate went up and honestly the box is half the reason.”
A plastic-free cylinder for almost anything
Round cardboard boxes cover the ground plastic tubs and tins used to own: candles, cookies, bath salts, tea, small gifts, dried goods. The rolled board wall is stiffer than it looks, the lid lifts off and reseats with a friction fit, and when it is finally done the whole package goes in the paper stream. For brands making a low-plastic claim, the cylinder is one of the easiest wins in the catalog.
Builds by contents
The base build is a spiral-wound board tube with a fitted board lid and base, kraft-faced or white. Food applications add a food-safe liner, greaseproof for cookies and chocolate-dipped anything, foil-lined where aroma barrier matters, as with tea and coffee. Candles ride in an unlined tube with a thicker wall to handle the jar's weight. For structured luxury rounds with wrapped finishes and ribbon detail, the round gift box build is the sibling product; for small-diameter formats like lip balm and posters, see paper tube containers.
Any diameter and height within reason: we cut the tube to your product rather than forcing standard jars into standard rounds.
Print and label routes
Three ways to brand a cylinder, in ascending cost: a wraparound label on plain kraft, which suits small runs and lets one tube serve many SKUs; a printed wrap laminated to the tube for full-color, full-coverage branding; and foil stamping on the lid disc for the premium read. Kraft with a well-designed label is the small-brand default and photographs well.
What are the minimums?
Labeled plain tubes start low, from 100 units. Printed-wrap runs start around 500 per size, since the wrap prints in sheets matched to the tube dimensions.
