FAQ – Cosmetic Cartons
What exactly are cosmetic cartons?
Cosmetic cartons are lightweight, folding cardboard containers designed for the individual packaging of beauty products. They are most commonly used for smaller items and shorter production runs where agility is key.
When is a carton a better choice than a premium box?
Cartons are the superior choice when you prioritize structural simplicity, lower unit costs, and fast turnaround times. They are particularly effective for market testing, short-run editions, and lightweight products.
What quantities can be produced in short runs?
Thanks to our digital printing technology, we can produce cartons in small to medium volumes. This allows for flexible ordering, meaning you don’t have to commit to large production scales to get a professional result.
What types of paper and board are used for cosmetic cartons?
We typically use solid bleached sulfate (SBS) or coated boards that provide excellent stiffness and a high-end aesthetic. The choice of material depends on the weight of your product and your brand’s visual requirements.
How should I prepare a carton design for printing and die-cutting?
The design must be based on a precise die-line (template), accounting for fold lines (creasing) and glue areas. It is crucial to position graphics and text correctly to ensure everything remains legible and perfectly aligned once the box is folded.
