Frequently Asked Questions
What is a product box?
A product box (also known as a folding carton) is a type of packaging made from paperboard that is cut, folded, and assembled to create a container. They are commonly used for packaging various products, including food, cosmetics and skincare, cannabis products, and consumer goods. Product boxes are typically printed with brand information and product details, making them an essential part of product presentation and marketing. Unlike rigid boxes, folding cartons are shipped flat and assembled when needed, saving space and reducing shipping costs.
Product boxes are typically printed using offset or digital printing methods. At Willowpack, we specialize in digitally printed product boxes, which offer several advantages. Digital printing allows for high-quality, full-color designs with accurate color reproduction. It’s ideal for custom printed product boxes as it enables cost-effective short runs and quick turnarounds. The process involves printing directly onto the paperboard before it’s cut and folded. This method allows for intricate designs, variable data printing, and the flexibility to make last-minute changes without significant cost increases.

If you have a dieline, you can provide is the flat size of your dieline’s total height and total width for us to quote.

If you do not have a dieline, you can tell us the shape of the box you require (including the height, width, and depth dimensions) and we will see if we can source the dieline for you.

No. While both are used for packaging, product boxes (also known as folding cartons) and corrugated boxes are different. Product boxes are made from paperboard, which is thinner and more flexible than corrugated material. They’re typically used for smaller, lighter products and often serve as primary packaging.

Product boxes offer more options for intricate designs and are better suited for direct product presentation on retail shelves.

Corrugated boxes are manufactured with a fluted layer between two liner boards. They are sturdier and used for heavier items or as secondary packaging.

The four main formats of product boxes are:

  • Straight Tuck End: These have closure flaps on both ends, typically used for lightweight products.
  • Reverse Tuck End: Similar to straight tuck, but the end flaps close in opposite directions.
  • Auto-Bottom (or Auto-Lock Bottom): These have a bottom that automatically locks out when the folding carton is assembled, making it ideal for heavier items.
  • Sleeve: These are open-ended cartons that slide over a product or inner container. Each type offers different benefits in terms of assembly, product protection, and presentation.

At Willowpack, we can help you choose the best folding carton style for your specific needs.

While often used interchangeably, there are subtle differences between folding cartons and cardboard boxes. Folding cartons are typically made from paperboard, a thinner material ideal for lightweight products. They’re often used for direct product presentation and branding. Cardboard boxes, on the other hand, usually refer to corrugated boxes made from thicker, more rigid material. These are better suited for shipping, storage, or heavier items. Folding cartons are preferred for retail packaging because they offer more options for custom shapes and high-quality printing.

Paperboard product boxes offer numerous advantages:

  • Versatility: They can be crafted into various shapes and sizes, perfect for custom packaging needs.
  • Cost-effective: Especially with digital product boxes, they’re economical for both small and large runs.
  • Lightweight: Reduces shipping costs while still providing adequate protection.
    Printability: Excellent surface for high-quality printing, enhancing brand visibility.
  • Sustainability: Often made from recyclable materials, appealing to eco-conscious consumers.
  • Space-efficient: Shipped flat, saving storage space until needed.
  • Easy assembly: Can be set up in seconds, streamlining packaging processes.

These benefits make product boxes an excellent choice for many products across various industries.

A dieline is a digital template used in packaging design to show the exact layout and dimensions of a printed product box. It includes the cut lines, fold lines, and bleed areas that printers use to correctly trim, fold, and assemble your box.

Think of it as a blueprint for your packaging—it ensures that all design elements (like logos, text, and graphics) are placed correctly and won’t be cut off or misaligned when your box is produced.

Key elements on a dieline include:

  • Cut lines (usually marked in solid lines): where the box will be trimmed.
  • Fold/score lines (often dashed): where the box will be folded.
  • Bleed area: extra space beyond the cut line to prevent white edges from appearing.

Designers use dielines to create print-ready artwork, and manufacturers rely on them to produce accurate, professional-looking cartons.
