Can I apply hot stamping on both the inside and the outside of the cardboard box?

Hot stamping can only be applied either on the inside or the outside of the box, not on both sides. If you choose an outside finish, the design will immediately catch the eye at first glance. If you go for hot stamping on the inside, the outer part of the box will remain smooth and minimalist. In our online editor, you can easily design both versions and choose the one that best fits your brand.

Can hot stamping be combined with regular printing?

No in self-service orders. If you choose hot stamping, the product will feature only the hot stamping design, without additional printing. However, as we love personalisation, please contact our sales team to find out what we can do for you.

Where on the cardboard box can hot stamping be applied?

Hot stamping is available only on the lid of the box. It’s the perfect spot to showcase your logo, brand name, or a subtle design. In our online editor, you can preview exactly how your design will look on the lid before placing your order.

What is the minimum and maximum size of a hot stamping design?

The minimum format is 2 x 2 cm, the maximum format is 15 × 8 cm. For the best effect, we recommend placing the design in the centre of the lid – this way, the print looks aesthetic and elegant while immediately standing out.

Create a distinctive unboxing experience

The Custom Mailer Box with Hot Stamping is designed to protect your products during transit while making a strong visual impression. Constructed from corrugated cardboard, these boxes are robust enough for e-commerce shipments, retail product packaging, or subscription box services. The primary function is to secure items like apparel, cosmetics, electronics, or gourmet foods, ensuring they arrive safely and beautifully presented to your customers.

Choose your ideal box background

These mailer boxes are available in two material colours: classic brown or a clean white-brown. Both options provide a sturdy base for your custom branding, allowing you to select the finish that best complements your product and brand aesthetic. The natural brown offers a rustic, understated look, while the white-brown provides a bright, crisp canvas for your design.

Add a touch of metallic brilliance

Hot stamping is a specialized printing technique that applies a metallic foil to your packaging, creating a striking, reflective effect. This process also leaves a subtle debossed texture, adding a tactile element to your branding. You can choose from eleven distinct foil colours, including classic gold and silver, vibrant red or green, and unique holographic or goldpixel options. This embellishment is ideal for highlighting logos, brand names, or specific design elements, ensuring your packaging captures attention.

Brand your box inside and out

Customisation options extend to both the exterior and interior of the mailer box. You can apply hot stamping to the outside for immediate brand recognition upon delivery, or include it on the inside to create a memorable reveal as the box is opened. This flexibility allows you to craft a cohesive brand narrative that unfolds throughout the unboxing journey.
