What's a Good Paper Thickness for My Box?
-
16pt (0.016″ ≈ slightly thicker than a business card)
-
Best for very small product boxes.
-
Rule of thumb: footprint (floor of the box) of about 1″ × 1″ or smaller.
-
-
18pt (0.018″ ≈ just under credit-card thickness)
-
Strong enough for most cosmetics, food, and shelf packaging.
-
Cost-effective and versatile — the “everyday” choice for custom boxes.
-
Rule of thumb: footprint of about 2.75″ × 2.75″ or smaller.
-
-
24pt (0.024″ ≈ credit-card thickness)
-
Stiffer and more rigid, with a premium feel in hand.
-
Ideal for larger, heavier, or higher-end products where strength and presentation matter.
-
Rule of thumb: footprint of about 3″ × 3″ or larger.

Cardstock.... or Paperboard?
The paper behind your packaging matters
You may have seen box specs like “18pt cardstock” online — but not all 18pt paper is created equal.
• Cardstock: A thick paper used for crafts, postcards, and invitations. It’s cheaper and technically works for light packaging — but it lacks the stiffness and durability needed for most product boxes.
• Paperboard: A stiffer material engineered specifically for packaging. It folds cleanly, glues reliably, and holds its shape to protect your product — and your brand — on the shelf.
The key is knowing what you’re buying. In retail, your product box is what closes the sale — so it needs to perform and look its best. That’s why we use a quality paperboard — so your packaging doesn’t just hold together, it helps sell what’s inside.
