Custom Telescope Rigid Boxes
We offer custom two-part telescope rigid boxes which we can customize for you with branded designs, text, and special finishes to make your telescope rigid boxes stand out from the crowd.
A Telescope Rigid Box, also known as a two-piece rigid box or lid and base rigid box, is a premium packaging solution consisting of a separate top lid and bottom base. The lid slides over the base—either fully or partially—creating a clean, structured, and elegant presentation.
This classic rigid box style is widely used in luxury packaging, high-end gift boxes, and premium retail packaging, where both protection and visual impact are essential.
Custom Telescope Rigid Box Styles
We offer Full Telescope for luxury protection and Partial Telescope for sleek, cost-effective packaging. Both provide durable, elegant solutions for your products.
Full Telescope Rigid Box
A full telescope rigid box features a design where the lid completely slides over the base, providing a fully enclosed and secure closure. The lid is precision-engineered to fit snugly over the base.
Partial Telescope Rigid Box
A partial telescope rigid box has a lid that partially overlaps the base, typically covering only part of the top or sides. A more cost-effective solution compared to full telescope boxes.
Prepress Support for Telescope Rigid Boxes
We offer free telescope rigid box templates to help you easily create your design. Once your files are ready, our team will review them for free to ensure they meet all printing standards. We also provide constructive feedback on structure and layout to make sure everything is set for production.
Custom Telescope Rigid Box Assembly and Packing Service
Because telescope rigid boxes can be large and don’t flat pack, the shipping costs are relatively expensive. To help offset these added costs, if you purchase the products that you want to package inside them here in China, we can assemble the boxes and load the items into them for you before shipping. This service offers you a significant saving on shipping, assembly, and packaging.
The "Smartphone-Standard" Unboxing Experience
Why do people keep premium electronics boxes long after buying the device? It’s the feeling of quality. We bring that exact same high-end engineering to your brand using two signature technologies:
1. The "Slow-Slide" Vacuum Effect
A luxury box shouldn’t just fall open, nor should it get stuck. We calculate the precise air-release tolerance based on your box size and the weight of your product.
- Heavy Product? We tighten the fit to create resistance.
- Light Product? We adjust the gap to prevent vacuum lock. The result is a smooth, controlled glide—that satisfying “whoosh” sound—as the lid slowly separates from the base.
2. Razor-Sharp 90° Corners (V-Grooving)
Standard rigid boxes often have dull, rounded edges due to traditional paper folding. We use advanced V-Grooving technology to cut precise 90-degree angles into the greyboard. This creates crisp, sharp lines and a monolithic, block-like aesthetic that rivals the packaging of the world’s most iconic tech brands.

What Our Customers Say
Real stories from customers who worked with us to create custom packaging they’re proud of.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with QinPrinting. From start to finish, their team was responsive, professional, and truly invested in helping me bring my vision to life. I printed my first edition of a 58-card deck (complete with a custom magnetic box) and the results were stunning.
The color accuracy, matte finish, and premium cardstock all exceeded my expectations. Every detail shows real craftsmanship. The communication was outstanding too; they provided clear updates, design templates, and guidance at every stage.
What impressed me most was how personal the process felt. Even though they’re a large-scale printer, they treated my small-batch creative project with care and respect.
If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality printer for custom card decks, packaging, or creative projects, I can’t recommend QinPrinting enough. I’ll absolutely be printing with them again for my next production run!
Susan!!!! These books are SOOOOOOO beautiful! I don't think we could have dreamed how joyful it would be to open the box and find such care for and beautifully printed books. This was a special day -- we hope to have many more like it.
Thank you for fielding so many questions. Your patience with us (well, me) was so kind. You and your team have gone above and beyond for us.
Gratefully,
MAC
Most of all, we are so grateful for Nelson’s support throughout the entire process. He was consistently helpful, communicative, and detail-oriented — truly a pleasure to work with. Every step was made easier thanks to his guidance and care. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Highly recommend both the product and working with Nelson. We’ll definitely be back for future projects.
A special thanks to Nelson, who went above and beyond by sending us videos of the printed books and samples before shipping to ensure everything was perfect. His attention to detail and dedication gave us great peace of mind.
We had a children’s book printed and the final product was absolutely beautiful. The print quality, vibrant colors, sturdy binding, and professional packaging exceeded our expectations. Delivery was timely and the pricing was very competitive, especially for the high level of quality and service we received.
We were so impressed that we didn’t hesitate to place a second order with them and once again, everything was flawless.
If you're looking for a reliable, high quality, and customer focused printing company, QinPrinting is the one to go with. Highly recommended!
