Available Materials

Choose from premium corrugated board options engineered for different protection levels, print quality requirements, and sustainability goals. Our packaging engineers recommend the ideal material based on your product weight, shipping distance, and brand positioning.

Kraft Paper (Brown)

Natural unbleached kraft liner provides an organic, rustic appearance that signals sustainability and environmental responsibility. The brown fibrous surface absorbs ink beautifully for a vintage aesthetic, making it ideal for eco-conscious brands, organic products, and artisan goods. Kraft paper is 100% recyclable, biodegradable, and made from renewable resources, offering the most sustainable packaging option without compromising structural integrity.

White Corrugated Board

Bleached white linerboard delivers a clean, premium canvas that makes full-color CMYK printing pop with exceptional vibrancy and sharpness. The smooth clay-coated surface ensures consistent ink adhesion and precise color reproduction, which is critical for brands requiring accurate logo colors and detailed photographic artwork. White board is the industry standard for luxury retail packaging and subscription boxes where visual impact drives brand perception.

Black Corrugated Board

Dramatic black liner creates an ultra-premium, sophisticated foundation that makes metallic foil stamping, spot UV, and white ink printing truly stand out. The dark background naturally conveys luxury, exclusivity, and high-fashion positioning, making it the preferred choice for premium cosmetics, electronics, jewelry, and limited-edition product releases. Black board paired with minimal gold or silver accents delivers unmatched elegance.

E-Flute (1.5mm)

Ultra-thin single-wall corrugated with 90-94 flutes per linear foot provides excellent crush resistance in a slim profile. The fine flute structure offers a smoother printing surface than thicker alternatives, making it ideal for detailed graphics and lightweight retail products. E-flute mailers stack efficiently, minimizing storage footprint while maintaining sufficient protection for apparel, cosmetics, and consumer electronics during transit.

B-Flute (3mm)

The most versatile single-wall corrugated option with 47-51 flutes per foot, delivering an optimal balance of stacking strength, cushioning, and printability. B-flute offers superior puncture resistance and rigidity compared to E-flute, making it the go-to choice for medium-weight products requiring extra shipping protection. Its moderate thickness supports both flexographic and offset printing methods with consistent quality.

EB-Flute (4.5mm)

Double-wall construction combining E-flute and B-flute layers delivers maximum stacking strength and impact protection for heavy, fragile, or high-value items. The dual-layer design significantly increases box rigidity and load-bearing capacity while maintaining reasonable weight, making it ideal for premium gift sets, multi-product shipments, and industrial applications requiring enhanced durability.

Printing Options

Multiple printing technologies ensure your artwork, logos, and brand messaging are reproduced with precision and impact, regardless of order volume or design complexity.

CMYK Full-Color Printing

Four-color process printing using Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black inks produces photographic-quality images with smooth gradients and a virtually unlimited color gamut. This is the most popular choice for mailer boxes featuring detailed artwork, lifestyle imagery, or complex multi-color branding. Our Heidelberg offset presses deliver consistent color accuracy across the entire print run.

Pantone (PMS) Color Matching

Spot color printing using the Pantone Matching System ensures your brand colors are reproduced with 100% accuracy and consistency across every order and production batch. PMS printing eliminates color variation issues common in CMYK process printing, making it essential for brands with strict corporate identity guidelines, luxury positioning, or signature colors that must remain identical across all packaging materials.

Offset Printing

High-volume lithographic printing transfers ink from metal plates to a rubber blanket before applying it to the corrugated surface, producing exceptionally sharp text, fine details, and smooth color transitions. Offset printing is the industry gold standard for large quantity orders (5,000+ units) where color consistency, image clarity, and production efficiency are paramount.

Flexographic Printing

Direct rotary relief printing uses flexible rubber or polymer plates to transfer ink directly onto the board surface, making it the most cost-effective solution for high-volume runs with simpler designs and fewer colors. Flexo excels at bold graphics, text, and line art, delivering excellent results at lower per-unit costs for orders of 10,000 pieces or more.

Double-Sided Printing

Print custom artwork on both the exterior and interior surfaces of your mailer boxes to create a stunning unboxing experience that surprises and delights customers. Interior printing transforms the inside of the box into a branded environment, encouraging social media sharing and reinforcing brand loyalty with every delivery.

Soy-Based Inks

Environmentally friendly soy and vegetable-based ink formulations provide vibrant color reproduction while significantly reducing volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions during printing. Soy inks are easier to remove during the paper recycling process, making them the preferred choice for brands committed to sustainable packaging practices.

Surface Finishes

Premium finishing treatments add tactile and visual sophistication that distinguishes your packaging from standard printed boxes and elevates perceived product value.

Matte Lamination

A thin transparent film with a non-reflective, satin-smooth surface applied over the printed artwork creates a sophisticated, understated appearance that reduces glare and fingerprints. Matte lamination adds structural protection against moisture and scuffing while providing a premium tactile feel that conveys quality and refinement.

Gloss Lamination

High-shine transparent film amplifies color saturation and creates a vibrant, eye-catching surface that draws attention on retail shelves and in social media unboxing videos. Gloss lamination provides excellent moisture barrier properties and makes colors appear richer and more dynamic, ideal for brands wanting maximum visual impact.

Soft Touch Coating

A specialized velvet-like coating creates an irresistibly smooth, tactile surface that invites customers to hold and examine your packaging. This premium finish conveys luxury and exclusivity, making it the preferred choice for high-end cosmetics, premium spirits, and luxury consumer goods where sensory experience drives purchasing decisions.

Spot UV Coating

Selective high-gloss coating applied only to specific design elements such as logos, product names, or patterns creates striking contrast against matte backgrounds. This precision technique adds dimensional depth and visual hierarchy that guides the eye to key branding elements, delivering a premium effect at a fraction of the cost of full lamination.

Foil Stamping

Metallic or pigmented foil is heat-pressed onto the box surface using custom engraved dies, creating brilliant, reflective accents in gold, silver, copper, rose gold, holographic, or custom colors. Foil stamping adds unmistakable luxury and is the gold standard for premium brand positioning, limited editions, and gift packaging.

Embossing & Debossing

Three-dimensional raised (emboss) or recessed (deboss) patterns are pressed into the board surface to create tactile textures that customers can feel. These techniques add physical depth to logos, patterns, and decorative elements, transforming flat printed surfaces into interactive sensory experiences that communicate craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Box Styles

Choose from proven structural designs engineered for specific product types, shipping methods, and unboxing experiences. Each style can be fully customized to your dimensions.

Roll End Tuck Front (RETF)

The industry-standard mailer box style featuring a front panel that tucks into the top closure, creating a clean, professional appearance with secure contents retention. The roll end construction provides superior stacking strength and easy assembly without tape or adhesive, making it the most popular choice for eCommerce brands shipping products of all types.

Self-Locking Mailer

An innovative design with interlocking tabs that snap securely into place during assembly, eliminating the need for tape, glue, or staples. Self-locking mailers offer the fastest packing speed for high-volume fulfillment operations while maintaining excellent structural integrity throughout the shipping process, reducing labor costs and packing time.

Book Style (Hinged Lid)

A premium presentation format with a hinged lid that opens like a book, revealing contents in a dramatic, ceremonial unboxing experience. The attached lid stays connected to the base, creating a cohesive keepsake-quality package ideal for luxury gift sets, premium electronics, jewelry collections, and limited-edition product launches.

Auto Lock Bottom

Engineered with pre-glued bottom flaps that automatically lock into position when the box is opened, providing exceptional base strength for heavier products. Auto lock bottom mailers are the preferred choice for items such as glass bottles, ceramic products, books, and multi-piece gift sets where bottom integrity is critical.

Tuck Top Mailer

A classic design with top flaps that fold and tuck into the front panel, creating a secure closure while allowing quick and easy access to contents. Tuck top mailers are versatile, cost-effective, and suitable for a wide range of product types, making them an excellent choice for brands seeking reliable protection with minimal complexity.

Mailer with Custom Inserts

Corrugated or foam inserts engineered to cradle and protect specific product shapes, preventing movement and eliminating damage during transit. Custom inserts can be designed as trays, dividers, or precision-cut cavities that hold products securely while creating an organized, premium presentation that enhances perceived value.
