Choosing the Right Kind of Box for my Products

Not sure which box is right for you? Let's find out together.

Choosing the right box for your needs can be confusing and daunting if you're new to it.

With rigid gift boxes, corrugated kraft mailers and folding cartons all on the table, it's easy to feel a little lost before you've even started. Which one suits a delicate candle versus a stack of t-shirts? What survives the post, and what's better suited to a shop shelf? And what on earth is "flute"?

That's exactly why we built our new Packaging Finder. It's a quick, no-pressure little tool that asks you a handful of simple questions; what your box is for, how many you need, the look you're after, and the size and weight of what's going inside - and then points you to the packaging that fits best. No jargon, no guesswork, and no need to email anyone first.

Better still, it doesn't just name a box type. It hands you a proper starting spec, right down to the board, finish, insert and (for mailers) the ideal flute for your size and weight, so you arrive at our pricing calculator already knowing roughly what you want. Think of it as a friendly first conversation with someone who knows packaging inside out, available whenever you need it.

Give it a go below; it takes about thirty seconds, and it'll hopefully guide you in the right direction of what works best for you.
