It doesn’t matter the style of product box you choose or how your box is oriented.

Find The Right Paper Thickness

Getting the right paper for your product is critical.

Most custom product boxes use paperboard, a special paper designed for box printing. With excellent stiffness, folding, and print qualities, it comes in various thicknesses and is the top choice for custom packaging.

Custom Printed Boxes

Custom printed boxes bring your products to life with vivid colors and high-quality graphics that make your brand stand out. At a minimum it does exactly as it should - package your product.  But it can do so much more. Effective packaging influences how consumers perceive your brand while creating demand for your products.  And when it comes to retail, your product’s  packaging plays a critical role in driving sales.

 

Consumer Perceptions

We all have built-in perceptions of what signals luxury, quality, value, and other attributes.  By adding box design elements like soft-touch finishes, metallic foils, embossing, and film laminates - features often associated with premium products - you’re reinforcing their beliefs of what high-quality products look like. No other packaging medium offers as many options to connect with your audience as custom printed product boxes do.

What best describes a UV-coated product box?

  • UV adds bling to your product packaging.

  • UV defines products as more than just ordinary.

  • UV finishes influence how consumers perceive the product

Actually, UV-coated box packaging does all of this—and more! Adding a UV or soft touch finish to your product boxes is an easy and economical way to quickly elevate your printed packaging!

UV, short for ultraviolet coating, involves applying a clear liquid to a packaging surface and curing (drying) it with ultraviolet light.   Different UV coatings create different effects - and some can be quite dramatic!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Length & Width:
    Once you know the slide direction, the length and width will be the rectangular dimensions of the open end of the sleeve, with length being the longest dimension.
  • Dimensional Order:
    Convention in the packaging industry is to always put the depth dimension last in terms of L x W x D. If your dimensions are not correctly called out, your sleeve configuration will not be correct. You’ll expect the sleeve to slide over your box this direction, but it’s been configured to slide a different direction altogether! When it comes to measurements, dimensional order DOES matter!!

  • Paper Thickness for a Sleeve Box
    Paperboard, also known as board stock, is specifically designed for packaging (and other specialty) applications. It’s a dense, stiff paper with excellent print and foldability qualities, and it comes in a range of paper calibers (thicknesses). Paper calibers are measured in thousandths of an inch (0.001”), or in the print world, points, where each point represents one thousandth of an inch. Board stock’s unique qualities make it the go-to choice for custom product sleeves. If the sleeve is used as primary packaging, or secondary packaging as a printed overslip on corrugated boxes, you’ll want a board paper that holds its shape and stands up to abuse. For primary packaging sleeves you’ll want a board weight of between 0.016” – 0.024”. If the product is on the heavier, bulkier side, or if the packaging sleeve needs special diecuts, then tend towards a heavier paper. On smaller products you can get by with a paper stock as thin as 0.014” for a printed sleeve, but anything thinner is risky. What determines the paper stock will really be the application; the weight/size of the product, and how and where it will be used. Also keep in mind if it’s primary packaging there can be a lot of handling, so the sleeve is subject to tearing, especially if it’s a retail product.
  • Paper sleeves
    Be wary of sleeves printed on lightweight paper – anything under 0.014” thick. You’ll see sleeves being printed on 100lb gloss paper or similar advertised – this is the paper thickness of a thin advertising flyer (see box paper chart). These papers are not designed as a packaging stock, and don’t have the stiffness characteristics or tear resistance needed for a product sleeve. These sleeves are more like printed paper wraps, or belly bands designed to be cinched around a product and taped in place. Custom belly bands and wraps are cheap, quick to put on, and attract attention, but they’re not a good packaging sleeve.
  • What is Printed Sleeves as Secondary Packaging
    Customized packaging sleeves are often the ideal choice for secondary product packaging. They are cost-effective, eco-friendly, enable rapid product rebranding, and add vibrant color to otherwise plain packaging.
  • Sleeves as Corrugated Overslips
    What do you do when your corrugated product box is less than attractive? Corrugated boxes are essential for packaging heavier products, but they often lack visual appeal for a variety of reasons. First impressions mean a lot. To create an impact on consumers your product packaging has to attract and connect, especially if you’re selling retail. The way to connect with your audience is through your message. And just as important as having a quality product box is having the space to tell your story. This is where custom printed box sleeves come in. Using printed sleeves as a corrugated box overslip is a quick, easy, and low-cost way to brand, or even rebrand, your products. And if your wholesale products arrive from overseas in non-descript cardboard packaging – keep the corrugated box, just rebrand it by adding a custom printed sleeve.
