Printed with your chosen colors, graphics, and logo, even the least expensive retail paper box becomes a powerful ambassador for your brand.
Custom Medical Boxes
Our medical paper boxes are designed, printed, and assembled with the needs of the health and pharmaceutical industries in mind. While they’re also stylish and cost-effective, our priority is safety and proper conservation of the products. You’ll also find plenty of print space both on the box, tabs, and a leaflet insert, to give your customers full instructions for the proper storage and use of any medicines and other important safety information.
Custom Display Boxes
Paper and cardboard display boxes are an ideal solution for presenting small goods—such as toys and gifts, cosmetics, snacks, candies, stationary, pocket-sized electronics, accessories and more—in both countertop or free-standing contexts. They’re a great way to get your products seen at the point of sale or other strategic locations. Robust, practical, branded, and attractive, let them do the selling for you!
Custom Packaging Sleeves
Also known as “belly bands” or “wraps”, packaging sleeves are an effective and inexpensive way to upgrade your custom box, tray, or any other regular-shaped container with branded packaging that’s lightweight, practical, and eye-catching. You can also use a sleeve on its own to wrap products like smaller clothes, towels, stationery, and more. Each sleeve can be printed on one or both sides and offers fantastic opportunities for branding and adding marketing messages.
Custom Kraft Boxes
Kraft boxes are robust, flexible, and fully customizable. We’ll create Kraft boxes to fit your products, using your own designs and adding inserts, branded printing and more as you require.

Our Environmental Commitment
We make our folding carton boxes using a sheet of paper coated on one side which we cut and fold to create the carton. We actively encourage reuse and recycling of all our products. We can use recycled or FSC-certified materials on request.
FSC-certified means materials from responsibly managed, sustainable forests. We believe that responsible forest management is critical for our environmental, social, and economic futures. We also use exclusively soy-based inks, which are harmless to the water supply and fully biodegradable while giving truly beautiful, vibrant, and durable prints.
We also constantly review our printing processes to make them more energy efficient and to make sure that we close as many loops as possible, for example in how we manage our water supplies and minimize the environmental impact of shipping by choosing the most efficient options, packing full containers, and carbon offsetting.
