How to Order Custom Rigid Boxes: A Simple Checklist
Ordering custom rigid boxes goes faster and cheaper when you arrive with a few details ready. Most delays and remakes come from missing information — the wrong product dimensions, an unclear finish, or low-resolution artwork.
Use this checklist before you request a quote and you’ll get an accurate price and a usable mockup on the first pass.
Measure your product
Give us the product’s exact dimensions, or send a sample. The box and insert are built around the product, so accurate measurements are where the spec starts — a few millimeters change the fit.
Choose a style and finish
Pick a construction (two-piece, magnetic, drawer, book, mailer, tray-and-sleeve) and a finish (soft-touch, matte, gloss, specialty), plus any foil or emboss. We’ll advise if a different style serves your product or channel better.
Send usable artwork
Vector artwork (AI, EPS, SVG, PDF) gives the cleanest foil, emboss, or print. A photo or PNG is fine — we recreate it print-ready for free — and include exact brand colors and any interior-print idea.
Give a quantity and deadline
A rough quantity is enough to price tiers, and volume is the biggest lever on cost. If you have a launch or in-hands date, flag it — standard production is about two to three weeks, and rush is available for firm dates.
The biggest time-saver is sending accurate product dimensions and vector artwork up front — it turns two rounds of questions into one accurate mockup.
Have your specs ready? Send them over and we’ll return an accurate quote and a free photo-real mockup within one business day.
