Materials That Go the Distance

Auto lights come in all shapes and sizes — from delicate bulbs to heavy-duty LED units. We match each product with packaging materials that shield, secure, and showcase.

Material Options:

• Corrugated cardboard (B-flute or E-flute) – Great for cushioning and stacking strength
• Double-wall corrugate – For heavier or bulk lighting components
• Rigid chipboard – For premium unboxing or specialty kits
• Foam inserts and molded trays – Prevent shifting and breakage
• Gloss, matte, or aqueous coatings – Smudge resistance and shelf appeal

 Custom Sizes & Box Styles for Every Type of Light

Whether you’re packaging taillights, LED bars, or turn signals, we tailor your box dimensions and construction for maximum performance and presentation.

Box Options:

• Die-cut boxes – For irregular-shaped or multi-part light assemblies
• Tuck top or auto-lock bottom boxes – Easy to assemble and secure
• Mailer-style boxes – Ideal for eCommerce and DTC sales
• Folding cartons – For compact display-ready packaging
• Insert-ready layouts – For custom padding and organized presentation

 Printing That Puts Your Brand in the Spotlight

Your packaging doesn’t just protect your product — it promotes your brand with every shipment or retail sale.

Custom Print Features:

• Full-color CMYK or Pantone printing
• High-resolution product imagery or installation diagrams
• Branding, specs, barcodes, and certification labels
• Foil stamping, spot UV, or embossing for retail appeal
• QR codes linking to install videos, support pages, or product registration

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.
