Custom Rigid Boxes

Custom rigid box packaging is the very best way to present your products. Most people refer to them as “set-up boxes”. They are a thick and durable box that will not fold flat like an everyday cereal box; therefore, they remain in the shape of the object they are holding, providing the impression of high quality. At Custom Creative Packaging UK, we provide you with the best solution when it comes to creating custom rigid boxes for your product to look professional. We use the thickest board materials to ensure that the box is made up of solid materials. Buy rigid boxes today!

Use of Custom Rigid Box Packaging

A wide variety of businesses are attracted to rigid packaging to associate their brand with their name. Custom rigid boxes UK provide the look and feel of being “heavy” and “expensive” (which is how this type of packaging comes across). These boxes can be used effectively for the following:

1. Luxury Retail: Merchandise (apps), clothing, shoes, and design-type accessories are high-end retail.
2. Electronics: Phones, tablets, and headphones are often packaged in a rigid packaging box by manufacturers who want to protect their products and give them.
3. Cosmetics and Beauty: Rigid boxes printed create the “WOW” factor effect. Hence, they are the packaging of choice for all types of perfumes, skincare sets, and makeup/beauty kits.
4. Confectionery: Premium chocolates (Humboldt) and gift hampers are packaged using a rigid box with a lid to maintain the qualities of freshness and secure delivery.
5. Corporate Gifting: Using a gift box of premium materials gives business owners additional credibility when sending gifts to clients or employees.

Benefits Of Custom Printed Rigid Packaging Boxes

The use of custom printed rigid packaging boxes gives you opportunities that benefit your business. To begin with, building trust is the most significant advantage. When a customer receives a high-quality and heavy packaged item, it extends a sense of due regard and creates an anticipation of high value.

Another advantage of using rigid boxes wholesale is its long-term storage ability. Therefore, many people retain their boxes long after the items have been opened. This creates opportunities for future use and retention of a brand’s logo within a customer’s household.

We create a high-quality rigid box that withstands the rigors of distribution. Our rigid boxes UK ensure that the contents do not suffer damage during shipments. Our rigid box has thick walls that will not break easily while in transit. Therefore, the possibility of damaged goods is greatly reduced.

What Type of Rigid Materials Do We Use?

The overall look and strength of your box will depend on the materials we use to manufacture it. Our custom rigid boxes consist of a combination of high-quality boards and papers. This way, we ensure you have a sturdy and attractive package. Here are the types of raw materials that we use to create your rigid boxes in bulk.

The Core is Grey Chipboard

Grey chipboard is the material that gives every rigid box its strength. Regular cardboard that is used in cereal boxes is thin and bends easily. The grey chipboard is very dense and will not bend. It is made by stacking up layers of recycled paper on top of each other until they form a heavy-duty board. Therefore, the material creates a ‘rigid’ box and protects your products as best as possible during shipping.

Premium Paper and Paperboard for Wrap

The grey chipboard is difficult to print directly onto, so we cover the grey chipboard with a thinner layer of quality paper or paperboard. This top layer is the layer of magic. We can use:

• Art Paper: Ideal for printing in crisp and vibrant colors, plus many different finishes.
• Kraft Paper: An excellent selection if you want the look of nature and need a product that can be recycled.
• Specialty Textured Paper: If you’re seeking a paper that has a specific texture, such as linen or leather, we use embossed paper to give it the luxury look and feel.

We Add Inserts and Trays for Support

To keep your product from shifting around inside the box, we often employ the use of inserts within the box; the following are common options for inserts:

• Cardboard Trays: Simple & neat solution for lightweight merchandise.
• Foam or Plastic Inserts: Custom-cut to fit your merchandise perfectly to ensure they remain secure in transit.
• Sleeve & Magnets Componentry: For magnetic rigid boxes, we hide a small magnet within the chipboard layers so the closure utilizes a hidden mechanism but is functional.

Customization Options for Custom Rigid Box Packaging UK

Each company is what makes it different from other companies, and therefore, packaging for your business should also be different. There are many different kinds of options available to create the most unique packaging for your product, including size, shape, and colour.

In order to ensure that your product will fit into its box perfectly, we only use high-quality papers to wrap around our thick chipboard boxes. This also means that any colours or patterns are available to you. For a more natural appearance, our environmentally friendly option can be recycled easily with the original chipboard.

Premium Finishing Options

The feel of the box in customers’ hands can also greatly impact purchasing decisions, and when it comes to how customers feel when they touch the packaging, you can choose from a matte and glossy finish to perfectly match the brand’s image.

To help elevate your cardboard custom rigid box packaging uk to the next level, we have additional premium finishing options available:

• Lamination & Coating: Use soft-touch lamination to create a soft-to-the-touch feel or UV coating for additional shine on just portions of the design.
• Foil Stamping: Use metallic foil in gold, silver, or rose gold to create an expensive-looking logo that is also very eye-catching.
• Embossing/Debossing – Making 3D-looking art. Embossing produces an excellent artwork, while debossing creates a recessed piece that gives a classic touch with a subtlety added to it.
• Texture – We offer uniqueness by way of texture printed on paper wraps, such as grainy finishes like linen or leather texture. These types of finishes not only give you a premium tactile feel but also allow for more appearances to your packaging (in terms of appearance).

Creative Add-ons for Function and Style

The smallest of touches can make all the difference in terms of how customers feel about your company. Here are some accessories that we offer for custom rigid boxes wholesale to enhance your customers’ experience:

• Magnetic Lid Closure – Using multiple magnets gives you a secure way to close the lid on any rigid box using magnetic closure systems.
• Custom Fit – An insert or tray can be made from foam or silk fabric to help hold your product in place securely.
• Ribbons & Handle To Use For Functional Use and Designating How To Hold The Box – Attach ribbon pulls or a decorative handle to any rigid gift box to make carrying your gift box easy to open.
• Custom Printed Sleeves – Printed sleeves are available for sliding over the main box so that you have additional space or a different visual layer, similar to how gaskets provide a visual representation for safety before opening.
• Custom Window / Clear Patch – Provide your customers with an easy way to view your product inside of a retail store without compromising visual safety by having a clear window patch attached to the top of the box.

Rigid Packaging Box Styles We Provide

There are many styles to create a rigid box. Here are some of the most popular styles we offer:

• Two Piece Rigid Boxes with Lids

A classic style of rigid boxes with lids that consists of two separate pieces, the base and the lid, that fit perfectly together. Elegant and strong, these boxes are a popular choice.

• Magnetic Closure Rigid Boxes

Modern and high-tech, these magnetic closure rigid boxes use a hidden magnet to snap shut. A great example of box closure, users will love the “click” sound that accompanies their closing, as it makes them feel like they have purchased a luxury product.

• Sleeves with Tray

This is an “unboxing” option where the tray is slid out from each sleeve. Opening the tray to see the product inside allows for providing fun ways to experience products through slowly revealing them through the tray sliding out from the sleeve.

• Round Rigid Boxes

Rather than traditional boxes, round rigid boxes are perfect for flowers, hats, high-end candles, etc.

• Small Rigid Boxes

Great for small items such as rings, earrings, and/or electronics that keep small items from moving around within the box. These small rigid boxes provide the perfect fit.

Finishing Options We Offer

We make your custom printed rigid box design with the latest technology. Our expertise in making rigid box packaging UK ensures you get the perfect appearance of high-quality, accurate branded colours.

• Debossing: A debossed logo is created when the designer presses the logo into the box, creating a sunken effect.
• Foiling: We can foil (metallic) elements such as gold and silver on your boxes to create a shining finish.
• Lamination: This is used as a protective coating over printed material that protects it from scratching and moisture.
