Custom electronics packaging is the printed box plus the fitted insert that holds a cable, charger, pair of earbuds, or small device so it arrives undamaged and looks finished on the shelf. The insert does the real work here, keeping the product from rattling and staging it for the unboxing.
Sizes: built to your device dimensions, not a stock size forced onto your product.
Construction: tuck end cartons, two piece rigid boxes, or mailer boxes, with foam, paperboard, or molded pulp inserts.
Stock: corrugated for shipping strength or rigid chipboard for a premium feel.
Minimum order: none.
Common builds use our rigid boxes or mailer boxes as the outer shell. New to insert options? Start with what is a mailer box.
Electronics packaging specification
The insert does the real work here. The printed box gets the credit, but what stops a return is the piece of foam or pulp holding the device still.
| Sizing | Built to your device dimensions rather than a stock size forced onto the product. Send the device measured at its widest, tallest and deepest. |
|---|---|
| Construction | Tuck end cartons for light accessories, two-piece rigid boxes where the unboxing matters, and corrugated mailers where it has to survive a courier alone. |
| Insert | Foam or molded pulp, cut to the device. Foam absorbs shock best; pulp suits a recyclable brief. Tell us the weight and how fragile it is. |
| Compartments | Separate pockets for the unit, cables and documentation. That is what makes an unboxing read as considered rather than loose. |
| Drop protection | The box alone will not survive a drop; the box plus a fitted insert will. If it ships direct to consumer, say so and we will spec accordingly. |
| Barcodes and marks | Send your barcode, certification marks and required text with the artwork so they are laid into the design rather than pasted over it. |
| Printing | Full color, inside and out if the open matters. |
| Minimum order | None. Order the quantity you can actually move. If you are holding a written quote from someone else, send it over and we will work to beat it. |
| Production time | Standard runs are 7 to 14 business days. Print method and finishing move that. |
| Proof and samples | Free design and a free digital proof before anything prints. Samples on request. |
| Shipping | Free, with tracking. |
What to send us for a quote
Three things get you a real number rather than a range:
- Device dimensions and weight. Or send the device itself, which tells us more.
- What ships with it. Cables and documentation change the insert.
- Artwork and required marks. Free design if you need it.
