FAQ
How thick is the material in these product boxes?
If you want to get technical, the industry standard is to measure this type of cardstock by grammage – or grams per square metre (gsm). But as a general rule, the heavier the stock, the thicker and sturdier it normally is. Our product boxes are available in three paper grades. The standard grammage is 300gsm for both White and Kraft. You can also request 350 or 400gsm in White. If you need the exact thickness by the millimetre, reach out during the quoting process and our Packaging Experts will answer your questions in detail.
Can you use these product boxes for shipping?
No, we wouldn’t recommend it. The Classic Product Box is designed to be primary packaging, such as retail packaging for in-store display or gift packaging. TIP: our customers normally ship these product boxes by combining them with shipping packaging, like the Corrugated Mailer Box, the Expandable Kraft Mailer or the Shipping Box.
What’s the maximum weight that these product boxes can handle?
It depends. The strength of your product boxes will be determined by the construction design and the material (300-400gsm) you choose. Reach out during the quoting process and our Packaging Experts can provide you with more detailed answers and a solution tailored to your product’s specifications.
Is it easy to fold?
Are these retail boxes delivered pre-glued, flat or fully assembled?
The short answer: they’re delivered pre-glued and folded flat, but not assembled. The Classic Product Box is glued at one point on a side flap during the production process. This saves your team from applying any adhesives, meaning assembly is quick and easy. Just pop open the collapsed box and fold in the bottom and top. →See how it’s done here.
Does this box have a matt or glossy finish?
It’s up to you. As an add-on, you can choose to have the cardstock laminated with a matt or glossy foil either on the inside or outside. So, you could have a glossy finish on the outside and a matt feel on the inside of your retail box. There’s also the choice of soft-touch lamination or a UV spot varnish. After choosing the size and quantity, you can select a finish of your choice in the next steps of the quoting process, along whether you want it inside or outside. Here, you’ll also be able to add any questions about finishes to your quote request for our Packaging Experts to answer.
