Description
A custom folding box is one of the most versatile packaging solutions, widely used for retail, cosmetics, electronics, and more. To make it truly fit your brand, every detail can be customized. Here’s how the process works step by step:
Custom Folding Box Size
The right size ensures your product fits snugly, minimizing empty space and improving the unboxing experience. From small folding cartons for cosmetics to medium and large boxes for electronics or food products, sizing is always tailored to your exact needs.
Custom Folding Box Color
Colors create an instant brand identity. Options include:
Full CMYK printing for high-quality graphics
Pantone-matched colors to maintain brand consistency
Solid colors with minimal design for a clean, premium look
Inside/outside printing to extend branding throughout the box
Custom Folding Box Material
The material determines both sturdiness and brand impression:
Paperboard (250–400gsm): lightweight yet durable, common for retail packaging
Kraft paper: natural and eco-friendly, often chosen for organic or sustainable products
Coated white board: smooth surface for vibrant printing
Recycled or FSC-certified stock: aligns with sustainable brand values
Custom Folding Box Structure
Folding boxes offer countless structural options to suit different industries:
Straight tuck end (STE): easy to assemble, ideal for cosmetics or small items
Reverse tuck end (RTE): efficient for automated packing lines
Crash lock bottom: provides extra strength for heavier products
Auto-lock bottom: fast assembly, widely used in retail
Window cut-out: displays the product directly to customers
Hanger tab design: perfect for retail shelves and displays
