Build specification
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 Pens With Printing for Brand Programs
Custom pens with printing serve a versatile promotional products category where brand distribution programs, marketing campaigns, trade show activations, and custom stationery programs all rely on printed writing instruments as functional brand communication tools reaching diverse audiences through daily writing use. The custom pen printing category differs from logo-only pen programs by enabling full marketing message communication including campaign slogans, URL and QR code printing, product benefit communication, and visual brand story printing across pen barrel surfaces.
Pen Printing Technology Options
Printing technology selection defines pen brand communication quality across diverse promotional programs. Screen printing delivers vibrant single and multi-color printing on standard round barrel pens at cost-efficient pricing for high-volume promotional distribution programs. Pad printing provides precise multi-color brand printing on diverse pen surface geometries accommodating complex barrel shapes and irregular printing surfaces. Digital printing on flat-barrel pen formats delivers full-color photographic quality printing including brand photography, campaign imagery, and complex multi-element brand communication designs that traditional screen and pad printing cannot achieve.

- Pad printing for complex barrel geometries
- Digital printing for full-color photographic

Campaign Message Printing Programs
Campaign message printing drives pen customization beyond simple logo programs to full marketing communication on pen surfaces. URL and website printing on promotional pens creates mobile web access tools directing pen recipients to digital brand destinations. Campaign slogan and tagline printing builds campaign awareness through repeated message exposure during daily writing use. QR code printing on pen surfaces enables smartphone scanning for direct brand digital engagement from physical pen distribution. Many marketing teams develop campaign-specific custom printed pen programs because the pen becomes a functional campaign communication tool delivering daily message impressions throughout the pen's useful life.

- Product benefit communication printing
Trade Show and Event Printing Programs
Trade show and event printing programs drive significant custom pen volume across brands using printed pens for conference and event brand activation distributions. Event-specific custom printed pens featuring conference name, date, and brand identity create memorable event souvenirs. Trade show branded pens distributed at booth programs travel home with attendees creating extended brand reach beyond the trade show floor. Many trade show exhibitors report branded printed pen distributions among the highest-retained promotional items received at events supporting sustained post-event brand recall.
Specialty Full-Color Printing Programs
Specialty full-color printing programs drive premium pen investment for brands seeking maximum visual brand communication on pen surfaces. Flat-barrel digital printing programs deliver full-color photographic quality printing including complex brand photography, product imagery, and detailed brand visual communication. Many brands develop photographic printed pen programs for premium promotional gifting because the full-color quality communicates brand investment quality distinguishing premium programs from standard single-color promotional pen alternatives.
