Custom Packaging FAQs | Pricing, Shipping & Orders Guide

Standard mass production typically requires 8 to 12 business days following final digital dieline approval and sample sign-off. For tight launch windows, rush manufacturing services are available to compress production lead times without compromising ISO-certified quality control standards.

Yes. We offer both unprinted structural prototypes (blank samples) to test product fit and box mechanics, as well as fully custom printed pre-production samples. Printed samples allow international procurement teams to inspect color accuracy, foil stamping quality, and material rigidity before authorising large-scale production runs.

Our baseline MOQ starts at 100 units for folding paperboard cartons, corrugated mailer boxes, and retail counter displays. For premium rigid setup boxes, minimums start as low as 50 to 100 units. Volume tiers scale seamlessly up to 500,000+ units with significant unit-cost reductions.

We supply a wide range of industrial packaging materials, tailored to structural weight and display needs:

• Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS): Premium bright white paperboard (14pt to 24pt) ideal for cosmetics and luxury retail.
• Natural Kraft Board: 100% recyclable, eco-friendly unbleached brown paperboard for natural branding.
• Corrugated Fluting: Single and double-wall fluting (E-flute, B-flute, F-flute, and EB-flute) for high-impact shipping mailers.
• Rigid Greyboard: Heavyweight solid chipboard (1.5mm to 3mm) wrapped in art paper for luxury presentation boxes.

We utilize Heidelberg offset presses, state-of-the-art digital printing, and flexographic machinery. Available finishes include spot UV coating, soft-touch matte lamination, high-gloss lamination, hot metallic foil stamping (gold, silver, rose gold, holographic), embossing, debossing, and custom die-cut windows.

Yes. Environmental compliance is central to our manufacturing process. We source FSC-certified paper stocks, offer post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, and employ non-toxic soy-based and vegetable-based inks that support global circular economy guidelines.

For crisp reproduction, artwork must be submitted in vector formats: Adobe Illustrator (.AI), editable Vector PDF (.PDF), or layered Photoshop (.PSD). All fonts must be converted to outlines, embedded images set to at least 300 DPI, and color modes configured to CMYK or designated Pantone (PMS) spot colors.

Absolutely. If you do not have an existing packaging layout, simply send us your exact product dimensions (Length x Width x Height). Our structural designers will generate a custom 2D vector dieline complete with bleed lines, fold scores, and safe zones at no extra cost.

Prior to plate making, our prepress team issues a high-resolution 2D flat proof and an interactive 3D virtual preview detailing dimensions, structural flaps, folds, coatings, and artwork placement. Physical production begins only after receiving your written sign-off.

Unit pricing is determined by five main factors: box style/structure, overall sheet dimensions, material choice and board thickness, printing and finishing complexity, and total order volume. Higher quantities reduce unit setup costs significantly.

Yes. As a direct custom packaging manufacturer, we offer tiered wholesale pricing for orders of 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 50,000+ units. We also support long-term OEM supply contracts with scheduled delivery runs.

No. We maintain clear, itemized pricing. All die-cutting tools, printing plate setup charges, and basic digital proofing are included upfront in your official quotation.

We deliver packaging products worldwide, with specialized logistics networks servicing North America (USA & Canada), the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East.

We support multiple shipping modes based on budget and urgency:

• Air Express (DHL / FedEx / UPS): 3 to 6 business days; ideal for urgent sample runs or small batches.
• Air Freight: 7 to 10 business days for mid-sized cargo shipments.
• Sea Freight (FCL / LCL): 20 to 35 days; cost-effective solution for volume wholesale orders.

We offer DDP (Delivered Duty Paid), FOB, and CIF shipping options, handling export documentation and import tariffs for hassle-free delivery.

All finished items are flat-packed or nested, wrapped in moisture-resistant protective film, and packed into heavy-duty double-wall master corrugated shipping cartons. Palletization and corner guards are applied for container sea freight shipments.
