Practical purchasing guidance
Use this guide as a starting point, then confirm the final structure, material, food-contact requirement and production specification for your project.
01
Size and structure
Larger boxes use more board. Complex structures can require additional tooling, converting and assembly.
02
Material and barrier
Board grade, thickness, corrugation and food-contact barriers affect both performance and cost.
03
Printing and finish
Print method, color count, coverage, lamination and premium finishes influence setup and unit price.
04
Order quantity
Higher quantities usually spread setup cost across more units. Selected simple projects may start from 200 pieces.
05
Sampling and delivery
Prototypes, packing method and shipping route should be included when comparing the full project cost.
