Build specification
Choosing the substrate is the first decision on any project, and we keep six on hand: Kraft Board, Corrugated Board, Coated Art Board (C1S), Rigid Greyboard, Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS), and Metallic Board. From compostable kraft for artisan and eco brands, to solid greyboard for luxury rigid boxes, to vivid SBS for cosmetics, pharma, and premium retail, there is a grade for every use. Ordering economical corrugated mailers or a magnetic-closure rigid box with real weight to it? Both start from the same pool of FSC-certified materials, selected to look sharp on shelf, ship safely, and land well at unboxing.
Finishing is where a box makes its impression, and we bring every technique to the table: soft-touch matte lamination, high-gloss lamination, silk lamination, spot UV coating, gold and silver foil stamping, embossing, debossing, and aqueous coating. Use spot UV for a gloss-on-matte contrast that pulls focus to your logo, or soft-touch lamination to wrap a rigid box in a velvety feel that reads as premium before it is opened. Foil stamping on SBS or coated art paper supplies the crisp metallic detail cosmetic, fragrance, and gifting brands rely on to support premium pricing and earn unboxing moments worth sharing.
Weight is the quiet detail that decides how a box feels and how it travels, so we carry every option from lightweight 8pt to heavyweight 28pt, graded on the point system shared by US and UK suppliers. Lightweight 8pt–12pt fits folding cartons and high-volume retail boxes neatly. The 14pt–18pt mid-range is the workhorse of product packaging — protective where it counts, still economical to ship. Heavyweight 20pt–28pt gives the rigid, substantial feel that luxury gift boxes, rigid set-up boxes, and premium cosmetic packaging demand, where the heft of the box signals quality before it is even opened.
