- 2.5″ × 3.5″ × 1″ size fits flat gift cards, pendants, or folded notes.
- 3″ × 3″ × 3″ is an ideal size choice for small candles, lip balm sets, or mini skincare products.

Custom dimensions are accepted with no minimum size requirement, even for large cardboard boxes.
Board and Material Options
1. Kraft paper
Kraft board is natural brown and comes in thicknesses from 18pt to 24pt. Its surface works well with printing in one or two colors. This option is great for e-commerce inserts, handmade products, and brands that care about the environment.
2. White clay-coated board
This material features a bright white exterior and is available in 18pt to 24pt thickness. It supports high-quality full-color CMYK offset and digital printing. This is the standard choice for cosmetics, confectionery, and small retail boxes.
3. Rigid grey board with paper wrap
This material has two parts. A thick 2mm grey board shell is covered with either printed or plain paper. This style is often picked for jewelry and high-end gifts when a small box needs to feel strong.
Box Style Options
- Straight tuck end: The top and bottom flaps fold into opposite sides. This is the most common style for small custom-printed cardboard boxes. It is easy to assemble, lies flat when packed, and works with any type of board.
- Reverse Tuck End: The top and bottom flaps fold into the box from opposite sides. This design stays closed better than a straight tuck, which makes it a safe choice for light items.
- Two-Piece Lid and Base: This box has a separate lid that fits over a base tray. You can choose a short lid to show the product or a full lid to cover it. We offer this in thick, rigid board or standard folding paper.
- Auto-Lock Base: You assemble this base without glue. You fold the flaps together so they stay shut. The box remains closed even if the item inside is heavy. The top uses a standard flap to close. This style is best for products that need a solid foundation.
- Magnetic Closure: This design uses two strong magnets in the lid and front panel of the box. We offer this for rigid boxes that measure at least 2.5 by 2.5 by 1.5 inches.
Printing and Finishing Selections
We can print on every outside panel of your box. If you ask, we can also print on the inside base.
- Offset Printing: This method provides the most consistent colors. It is best for large orders of 1,000 units or more.
- Digital Printing: This option has no plate setup fees. It is ideal for small orders starting at 100 units.
- Foil Stamping: We use heat to apply metallic foil to specific parts of your box. You can choose gold, silver, rose gold, or other colors.
- Embossing and Debossing: We press a metal tool into the cardboard to create embossed or debossed designs. This works well on all our paper types.
- Soft-Touch Laminate: This is a dull film we put on the box. It stops light from reflecting and feels like soft material.
- Spot UV: This is a shiny, clear coat. We put it only in certain areas to create a contrast with the matte background.
