Custom Two Piece Boxes
Custom two piece boxes in rigid greyboard, a clean lid-and-base lift-off reveal with premium finishes and full-color branding.
Product Overview
Custom two piece boxes are the classic lid-and-base rigid setup, a separate lid that lifts cleanly off a matching tray to reveal the product in one considered motion. It is the most timeless premium structure there is, used for apparel, chocolates, truffles, candles, and gifting, because the clean lift-off feels ceremonial without any mechanism to fuss with. Built on heavy greyboard wrapped in specialty paper, a two piece rigid box has real weight and holds its shape, and the lid can be a full telescoping cover or a shallow shoulder depending on the look you want. From a two piece chocolate box to a large apparel box, this format presents a product beautifully and simply.

Every Packlic box is built on the right foundation. We work with six industry-grade materials, Kraft Board, Corrugated Board, Coated Art Board (C1S), Rigid Greyboard, Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS), and Metallic Board, covering the full spectrum from eco-friendly kraft for artisan and sustainable brands, to dense greyboard for luxury rigid boxes, to virgin-fibre SBS for cosmetics, pharma, and premium retail. Whether you are a small business looking for cost-effective corrugated mailers or a luxury brand demanding the satisfying weight of a magnetic closure rigid box, we source FSC-certified materials that perform on shelf, in transit, and at the point of unboxing.
The right finish separates packaging that gets noticed from packaging that gets remembered. Our options include soft-touch matte lamination, high-gloss lamination, silk lamination, spot UV coating, gold and silver foil stamping, embossing, debossing, and aqueous coating. Spot UV creates a striking gloss-on-matte contrast that draws the eye to your logo. Soft-touch lamination gives rigid boxes a velvety feel that communicates quality before the lid is lifted. Foil stamping on SBS or coated art paper delivers the crisp metallic detail that luxury cosmetic, fragrance, and gifting brands rely on to justify premium pricing and drive unboxing moments worth sharing.
Paper weight determines how your packaging feels in the hand and how it performs across the supply chain. We offer a full range from lightweight 8pt through to heavyweight 28pt, using the point system standard across US and UK packaging suppliers. Lightweight 8pt–12pt suits folding cartons and high-volume retail boxes. Mid-range 14pt–18pt is the workhorse of retail product packaging, strong enough to protect, light enough to ship economically. Heavyweight 20pt–28pt delivers the rigid, substantial feel essential for luxury gift boxes, rigid set-up boxes, and premium cosmetic packaging where the weight of the box signals quality before it is even opened.
Custom Two Piece Boxes, the Timeless Lid-and-Base Reveal
The two piece box is the oldest and most enduring premium packaging structure, and it endures because it is beautifully simple. A separate lid lifts cleanly off a matching base, and in that one motion the product is revealed with a quiet sense of ceremony, no hinges, no catches, nothing to fiddle with. That simplicity is exactly why the lid-and-base format has dressed everything from fine chocolates and truffles to shirts, candles, and luxury gifts for generations. A proper two piece rigid box is a setup box built on heavy greyboard wrapped in printed or specialty paper, so it has real weight, holds its shape, and feels expensive in the hand. We build custom two piece boxes that make the most of that classic reveal while fitting your exact product, whether you need a small two piece chocolate box or a large apparel box.
The Clean Lift-Off Reveal
The magic of a two piece box is the lift-off, so we build the lid to sit cleanly and snugly on the base and come away in one smooth, satisfying motion. There is no mechanism to learn, which makes the format feel effortless and universally understood, and the full presentation of the product is revealed at once. That simple, confident reveal is why the lid-and-base box still feels premium after more than a century of use.
Full Telescope or Shoulder Lid
The proportions of the lid change the whole character of the box, so we build the style that fits your look. A full telescoping lid covers the entire base for a clean, monolithic block that reads as sleek and modern, while a shorter shoulder or partial lid shows a band of the base for a more classic, layered look. We help you choose the depth and overhang that suit the product and the brand feel you are after.
Rigid Construction With Real Weight
Two piece boxes are rigid setup boxes, so we build them on heavy greyboard, typically 1500 to 2500gsm, wrapped in specialty paper. That substance gives the box the heft associated with premium goods, keeps the lid and base square and true so they fit precisely, and protects the contents without denting. The weight and the accurate fit of the two pieces are a large part of why the box feels considered and expensive.
Inserts for Every Use
The two piece box adapts to almost any product through the insert, so we build fitted trays and inserts to suit. A partitioned insert holds a row of truffles or chocolates in place, a foam or paperboard cradle protects a candle or a device, and a folded tissue or platform presents apparel neatly. The right insert turns the open box into a display and protects the contents in transit, which is what makes the format work equally well for confectionery, gifting, and retail.
Finishes That Elevate the Format
Detail is what lifts a simple structure into a luxury one, so we offer foil stamping, embossing, soft-touch lamination, and spot UV, along with specialty and textured wrap papers. Because the two piece box is such a clean canvas, a single considered finish, a foil logo on a soft-touch lid, for example, can carry the whole premium impression. We help you finish the box so it feels as refined as the product inside.
