Why this box
When product boxes are the right call
Buy this when the box is the thing on the shelf and the size has to be exact. It is built to your measurements rather than to a stock size, so nothing rattles and nothing is oversized. If a standard carton already fits your product within a quarter inch, buy the carton and put the difference into the print.
How it is made
What happens on press
Drawn as its own dieline first, then printed, cut and creased to that shape. The die is a physical tool made for your size, which is a real one off cost and the reason the second run of the same box is a simpler order than the first.
Sizes
Will your product fit?
Three sizes that cover most orders. They are a starting point rather than a menu, because every box is cut to your own measurements, so if your product lands between two rows we make the one in between.
| Size | Dimensions | What it holds |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 3 x 3 x 5 inA single retail unit standing on a shelf | A single retail unit standing on a shelf |
| Medium | 6 x 4 x 8 inA boxed device or a bundled set | A boxed device or a bundled set |
| Large | 10 x 8 x 10 inA large kit or a multi unit pack | A large kit or a multi unit pack |
All dimensions are the inside of the box, in length by width by depth order. How to measure a box properly.

Bulk and wholesale
What product boxes cost in bulk
Every quantity we run, with the unit price at each. The discount is real and it is not endless, and the table says where it stops rather than implying that a bigger order is always the better deal.
Wholesale pricing
The same product boxes at each quantity we run. Unit prices, so you can see where the bulk discount actually lands.
| Quantity | Per box | Off unit price | The run |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100minimum | $2.70 to $3.60 | base price | about $300 |
| 250 | $1.71 to $2.28 | 37% | about $474 |
| 500 | $1.21 to $1.61 | 55% | about $671 |
| 1,000 | $1.13 to $1.50 | 58% | about $1,250 |
| 2,500 | $1.13 to $1.50 | 58% | about $3,125 |
Up to 58% off the unit price between 100 boxes and 2,500. It stops falling at around 1,000: setup spreads across a run and board, ink and freight do not, so past that point a bigger order costs proportionally more rather than less per box.

Not sure this is the right box?
On a first order, the format usually matters more than the supplier. Tell us what you ship and roughly how many go out a month, and we will say so if a cheaper format does the job.
By industry
Product Boxes for your industry
The same box, set up for what you actually sell. Each page covers the sizes, finishes and quantities that industry tends to order.
Example of our print workProduct Boxes for Cosmetics & Beauty
You get premium touches like soft touch coating, foil and embossing, at quantities a growing brand can actually order.
Example of our print workProduct Boxes for Food & Bakery
We use food safe materials and finishes, with kraft and full color options that make your product look homemade or high end, whichever you're going for.
Example of our print workProduct Boxes for Supplements & Wellness
Clean cartons with room for your ingredients and claims, finished so they look premium instead of clinical.
Example of our print workProduct Boxes for Apparel & Accessories
Branded mailers and rigid boxes that turn a first order into something customers actually want to show off.
Example of our print workProduct Boxes for CBD & Cannabis
Cartons with room for your compliance panel, batch codes and QR codes, printed so the brand still comes first. We'll lay it out with you.
Example of our print workProduct Boxes for Electronics & Tech
Rigid and sleeve formats with cut to fit inserts, so the product sits still in transit and looks deliberate when it's opened.
We print product boxes for these too. They are not the first format we would suggest for every one of them, and each page says which one we would.
Straight answers
Questions worth asking
If yours is not here, just ask. A real person reads every message and you will not get signed up to a mailing list for it.
What is the smallest order I can place for custom product boxes?
You can order from 100 boxes, so you get a proper, professional run without having to buy thousands at once.
Do you sell product boxes wholesale, or in bulk?
Every order here is a trade order. There is no separate wholesale account and no minimum you have to hit to get trade pricing: the unit price falls as the run grows, from 100 boxes upward, and the table on this page shows what it does at each quantity. Worth knowing before you round a run up: the discount is not endless. Setup spreads across a run and board, ink and freight do not, so past roughly a thousand boxes the per unit price flattens out and a bigger order costs proportionally more rather than less.
What do product boxes cost?
They start at $1.25 a box at volume, and a small run lands higher because the setup costs the same whether we print a hundred or five thousand. The estimator on this page will get you within range for your own size and quantity, and a real quote comes back the same working day.
Do you help with the design?
Yes, and it's free. Send us your logo and brand, and we'll send back a print ready proof before anything gets made.
What artwork do you need from me?
A vector logo is ideal, so an AI, EPS or PDF file. If all you have is a PNG off your website, send it anyway and we'll tell you honestly whether it will print cleanly at that size. Redrawing a simple logo is part of the free design work, not an extra.
How long does it take?
Production on custom product boxes runs 3 to 5 days once you approve the digital proof, then a few days in transit. If you have a launch date, tell us the date and we will say honestly whether it works.
Will the colour match my brand exactly?
Close, not identical. A screen makes colour with light and a press makes it with ink, so there is a tolerance on every print job in the industry, ours included. Give us a Pantone reference and we will hold to it as tightly as the process allows, and the free sample pack is the cheapest way to see how our print looks before you commit.
Will I get exactly the number I ordered?
Usually, and you should plan for up to 10 percent either way. Over and under runs are normal on printed packaging because setup sheets get used up dialling the press in. If you need a firm floor, tell us the number you cannot go below and we will run to that.
Do you ship across the US, and can I reorder later?
Nationwide, and we can quote Canada and international shipping too. We keep your artwork and dieline on file, so a reorder is one message and the same box turns up again at the same spec.
Do custom product boxes arrive flat or assembled?
Flat, unless the format physically cannot be knocked down. That keeps your freight bill down, because flat board packs tight and you are not paying to ship air. Rigid and wrapped formats are the exception, and it is most of the reason they cost more to send.
Can I change the size after I have ordered?
Before you approve the proof, easily. After that it is a new dieline and a new press setup, which makes it a fresh run rather than an edit. That is exactly why we check the sizing before quoting, and why the dieline tool is free: print the flat layout at full size and fold it around the real product first.

How to measure a box (and why your first one is usually wrong)
Box dimensions are always inside measurements, and always in the same order. Get either wrong and your product does not fit.

What a dieline is, and how to send artwork that actually prints
A dieline is the flat map of your box before it gets folded. Everything that goes wrong in printing goes wrong here first.

Mailer box vs shipping box vs folding carton
A mailer is the box people picture first. For a product that lives on a shelf, a folding carton is often the better buy.
