• Eco-friendly CMYK or Pantone printing
• Uncoated or matte finishes for an organic feel
• Kraft-based prints with minimal ink coverage
• Inside print available for added storytelling or branding

Add-ons

Enhance the functionality and branding with eco-safe extras:

• Die-cut windows with compostable film
• Paper sleeves or belly bands
• Printed tags or recyclable labels
• Recyclable inserts or dividers

Types of Boxes

Choose a packaging structure that aligns with your balm type and branding:

• Reverse tuck boxes for simple application
• Drawer-style boxes for elevated presentation

• Foldable cartons for volume packaging

3Ps Approach

Our eco friendly lip balm packaging follows the Presentation, Preservation, and Protection model for long-lasting impressions and product integrity.

Presentation

We design these boxes with natural textures, muted colors, and clean layouts to reflect your brand’s sustainable values and visually attract eco-conscious customers.

Preservation

The packaging protects against UV, dust, and moisture, keeping the lip balm’s texture and formula intact during shipping and shelf life.

Protection

Durable yet lightweight structures minimize product movement and prevent dents or leaks in soft tubes or jars.

When measuring a custom box, there are a few technical specifications that must be considered to ensure proper design, manufacturing, and fit for the product. Here are the major technical things to measure a custom box:

Inside Dimensions (Critical for Product Fit)

• Length (L): The longest side of the box measured inside from one corner to the opposite corner.
• Width (W): The shorter side of the box measured inside perpendicular to the length.
• Depth/Height (D or H): Measured inside from the bottom to the top opening of the box. Always specify that dimensions are given in Length × Width × Height.

Outside Dimensions (Important for Shipping & Storage)

• Measure the outer surfaces of the box including material thickness.
• Outside measurements are used for pallet stacking, warehouse spacing, and shipping compliance.

Material Thickness (Board Caliper)

• The thickness of the packaging material (e.g., corrugated board, rigid stock, cardstock).
• Impacts both the internal usable space and external dimensions.

Flap Measurements

• For boxes with flaps (e.g., mailer or shipping boxes), measure:
• Inner flaps: Ensure they meet in the middle without overlapping too much.
• Outer flaps: Allow proper sealing without gaps.

Tolerances

• Account for manufacturing tolerances (usually ±1/16" or ±2mm depending on material).
• Ensure the product fits without being too tight or loose.

Volume Capacity

• Calculate internal cubic capacity (L × W × H).
• Helps in determining how much space the product will occupy and shipping efficiency.

Product Orientation

• Decide how the product sits inside the box and measure accordingly.
• Orientation affects whether length or width is the primary dimension.

Die-Cut Openings or Windows

• Measure exact placement, height, and width for any cutouts.
• Ensure structural integrity when adding windows.

Printing Bleed & Safe Zones

• Include measurements for:
• Bleed area: Extra space beyond the cut line for printing.
• Safe zone: Inner area where critical text or logos should be placed.

Closure Type & Locking Tabs

• Measure slots, tabs, or locks for boxes with custom closures.
• Precision is required to avoid misalignment during assembly.

Packaging Style

• Folds, creases, and scores must be measured for accurate dieline creation.
• Different styles (e.g., RSC, tuck-end, mailer, sleeve) require specific panel measurements.
