Build specification
Behind every Packlic box is one of six carefully sourced substrates: Kraft Board, Corrugated Board, Coated Art Board (C1S), Rigid Greyboard, Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS), and Metallic Board. The lineup covers everything a brand might need — recyclable kraft for artisan and sustainability-led ranges, thick greyboard for luxury rigid boxes, and clean virgin-fibre SBS for cosmetics, pharma, and premium retail. Whether the goal is a budget-friendly corrugated mailer or the confident heft of a magnetic-closure rigid box, we specify FSC-certified stock built to perform on the shelf, in transit, and when the customer lifts the lid.
A considered finish is the difference between packaging that is seen and packaging that sticks in memory. Our menu runs from soft-touch matte and high-gloss lamination to silk lamination, spot UV, gold and silver foil stamping, embossing, debossing, and aqueous coating. Spot UV adds a gloss-on-matte contrast that guides attention to your logo, and soft-touch lamination gives rigid boxes a velvety feel that reads as quality on contact. Foil stamped onto SBS or coated art paper lands the crisp metallic detail luxury cosmetic, fragrance, and gifting brands use to justify premium prices and fuel share-worthy unboxings.
The feel of your packaging and its durability in transit both trace back to paper weight, which we offer from lightweight 8pt up to heavyweight 28pt on the point system US and UK packaging suppliers use. Lightweight 8pt–12pt is well suited to folding cartons and high-volume retail boxes. Mid-range 14pt–18pt is the workhorse of retail packaging, balancing protection against economical shipping. Heavyweight 20pt–28pt supplies the rigid, substantial character essential to luxury gift boxes, rigid set-up boxes, and premium cosmetic packaging, where the weight of the box communicates quality the instant it is picked up.
Custom Die Cut Boxes for Specialty Packaging Programs
Custom die cut boxes serve a specialty packaging category where retail programs, product packaging operations, display distributions, and craft brand collaborations all rely on precision die-cutting creating custom shape profiles and window features unavailable with standard rectangular box construction. The die cut box category unlocks packaging geometry and visual feature possibilities that standard box formats cannot achieve.
Die Cut Construction Capabilities
Die cut precision defines custom packaging possibilities across diverse retail and specialty programs. Custom shape die cutting creates brand-specific box silhouettes departing from standard rectangular geometry for distinctive retail shelf impact. Window die cuts create product visibility apertures allowing customer product inspection before purchase. Handle die cuts integrate ergonomic carry features into packaging structure. Perf die cuts create tear-open access features for convenience packaging programs. Ventilation die cuts accommodate product airflow requirements for fresh food and horticultural packaging. Many brands invest in custom die cutting because the shape and feature differentiation creates retail identity unavailable in standard box alternatives.

Window Die Cut Product Visibility
Window die cut product visibility drives significant die cut box adoption for retail brands where product visual quality directly influences purchase decisions. Window apertures with clear acetate film allow customer product inspection creating purchase confidence. Many retail brands report window die cut packaging directly increases retail conversion because visible product quality supports premium retail pricing versus opaque alternatives requiring customer trust in packaging claims alone. Custom window shape die cutting creates brand-distinctive visibility features beyond standard rectangular window alternatives.

Brand logo and icon shape die cut packaging creates immediate brand identity communication through packaging form. Product category shape die cutting creates visual category association at retail. Seasonal shape die cutting for holiday and celebration programs creates distinctive seasonal packaging. Free design support guides brand teams through die cut shape specification, structural engineering, and brand identity integration for custom packaging programs.

FAQs
01 What die cut features can be added to custom boxes?
Custom silhouette shape profiles departing from standard rectangular geometry, window apertures with clear acetate for product visibility, handle die cuts for integrated carry features, perforation tear-open access, ventilation apertures for fresh product packaging, and brand-specific custom die cut feature combinations. We engineer die cut structural specifications during quote consultation.
02 Can window die cuts include different shapes?
Yes. Window apertures can be circular, oval, arch, rectangular, die-cut brand logo shapes, and diverse custom geometric forms. Clear acetate or PET film adhered behind window apertures maintains product protection while enabling visibility. Custom window shapes create distinctive retail brand identity through the visibility aperture form itself.
03 What is the tooling cost for custom die cut boxes?
Custom die cut tooling creates a precision steel rule die specific to your box shape. Tooling cost varies based on shape complexity and is a one-time investment amortized across production volumes. We provide specific tooling cost during quote consultation. High-volume programs rapidly amortize tooling investment across production quantities.
04 How does custom shape die cutting create retail differentiation?
Custom silhouette packaging departing from standard rectangular form creates immediate retail shelf visual impact. Brand logo and icon shaped packaging creates immediate brand recognition through form. Many brands report custom shape die cut packaging creates retail identity that standard format competitors cannot replicate without brand-specific tooling investment creating sustainable packaging visual differentiation.
